It’s time to talk shop. The next time you’re ready for a leisurely afternoon of browsing, some much-needed retail therapy or you’re getting ready for an event, head to The Little Bird. This upscale consignment shop on Post Oak Boulevard is like nothing you’ve seen before.
The Little Bird founder, Keele Loyd, was determined to bring a whole new level to the consignment industry. She launched her business concept in Aspen in 2007.
Even for the savviest shopper, a typical consignment store can be daunting having to dig through mounds of items or experiencing sensory overload to find one good item. Loyd wanted to provide an entirely different consignment experience knowing most brand shoppers were use to a more elevated shopping environment.
The elements of consignment shopping that she kept: affordability and striking individual pieces.
The Little Bird has all the charm of consignment but with the bright, clean elevated feel of a luxury boutique. The store takes in amazing items from consignors who shop all over the world as well as overstock from boutiques and designers. Items range from gently used to brand new.
The luxury consignment pioneer brought her concept to Houston in 2011 while also maintaining the Aspen location.
The Little Bird is your destination for style at a steal. Think Gucci handbags, Hermes bracelets and Chanel boots. There are also great finds from contemporary designers like Rag and Bone, Theory and Vince.
You can visit the store every day and find something new, but it’s not an everyday experience. It’s a host of hidden gems brought into plain sight. Consignment never looked so good – in store or online.
In this day and age of online shopping there is still something to be said for a tactile, personal experience. The Little Bird’s elevated environment is ideal for seeing, feeling and trying on each item, and for styling different items together. Each and every piece of attire and accessory is authentic, meticulously researched by the in-store consultants.
