Unclaimed Baggage

I was extremely selective with my shopping this Black Friday. The only in-person shopping I did was at Unclaimed Baggage in Scottsboro, Alabama. This place is an absolute gem. Luggage that is lost at airports and is never spoken for, ends up here.

This fabulous black bag cost only $15.00 By replacing the strap, it looks much more-high end than it is, and I have already been wearing it on the daily.

Prices are affordable, depending on the brand of the item. No other Black Friday could beat what Unclaimed Baggage offers on a daily basis. For a handful of brand new dresses and blouses during Black Friday, I paid only $34.00.

To sweeten the pot for Black Friday, Unclaimed Baggage offered an additional 10% of iPads and MacBooks and 70% off winter dresses. This red dress (shown above) only cost $3.00. So essentially, it’s like thrift shopping, but the items are in great condition (with some exceptions of course) and have just been dry-cleaned for you.

One reason I think their selection is so amazing is because when people travel they shop, so most items sadly didn’t make it home with them. More than half of what I bought were new with tags.

Also, when we travel, we are often celebrating and want to look amazing, so we pack the best of the best in our suitcases. Unclaimed Baggage carries brands from Forever 21 to Stella McCartney.

My favorite finds of the day include a Stella McCartney cardigan, an Altuzarra blazer, a leather shearling coat, a Muubaa leather vest, a Rebecca Taylor dress, and a Tory Burch coat.

Unclaimed Baggage makes being fashionable more attainable. When you can find high-end clothing and great brands at a fraction of the price…it’s unheard of. I think Unclaimed Baggage, or stores like it, are a great option if you value high-quality fashion but don’t want to spend all your money on clothes and accessories.

Their inventory was so good that I returned the following weekend. I appreciate that Unclaimed Baggage dry-cleans the items before they are added to the store’s inventory. On my second visit I found this showstopping Balenciaga dress, though it was too tight so it didn’t come home with me. I think this just illustrates, though, the high-end brands and wide selection that Unclaimed Baggage offers…

Loved this Rachel Roy dress. I couldn’t resist purchasing this, with the metallic sheen and ruched detailing.

An ALC dress. The pattern was a bit too bold for me.

Such an adorable dress from Ann Taylor. But after I was told I looked like a cowgirl, I decided to pass on this one.

I hope you found some amazing deals this Black Friday and though I do love luxury, Unclaimed Baggage shows us that we can find exceptional preloved items at lower price tags.
