Consign for a Cause

Consign for a Cause

Purses for plays? The RealReal luxury online consignment is partnering with the La Jolla Playhouse to raise funds for this cultural treasure. Donate gently worn designer handbags, clothing, art, and jewelry between now and May 2016, and the playhouse will receive 70 percent of the proceeds. At a recent luncheon at The Lodge at Torrey Pines chaired by Linda Chester, guests consigned luxury handbags to kick off the yearlong partnership. TheRealReal offers a free white glove pickup service for high-end items. With millions of online customers, most items sell within three days.
