About US

Our motto at Arnold's Walk-In Closet is Rethink Resale because our shop is not your average resale shop. We pride ourselves on having a beautifully decorated boutique that is clean, bright, well-organized and full of trendy clothes and accessories. Our inventory is in size, color and category; no digging required! We never let things get too crammed or overwhelming. We hand-steam everything that comes in before it hits the sales floor. That takes A LOT of time but makes the clothes look very presentable and helps us catch any stains or damage. We put hundreds of new items out every single day. There will always be something new for you when you come in; so be sure to come in often! We hope you will notice all the love we put into our store and enjoy it as much as we do!
We ABSOLUTELY love getting Google reviews. It really helps our business grow.  If you have time, please give us a review on Google.  Thanks!

I've always had a real passion for fashion, thus my obsession of resale & thrift stores. As a kid, my mom would drag me from yard sale to yard sale. It's kinda in my blood I guess. 

On August 8th, 2009 Arnold's Walk-In Closet was established. We opened our second store in Festus in July, 2015. After 5 years in business, we sold this location to our amazing store manager, Karlie. 

I am blessed to have a successful store, great employees, and have met so many great customers over the years.

I've known I wanted to work in the fashion industry since High School, where I took a sewing class and fell in love with creating my own looks. I went off to Mizzou and finished with a Bachelors of Science in Textile & Apparel Management. 

After college I moved to Los Angeles where I managed a few fashion boutiques, and there I realized it wasn't designing the item from scratch that I loved so much, it was putting the look together for the customer and seeing the smile on their face when they left. 

Since then I have worked for companies like Michael Kors, Nordstrom, Macy's and Dillard's. I have managed Departments, Sales and Operations, and been a Personal Stylist. I stumbled across Arnold's Walk In Closet 6 years ago, and was fascinated by the resale game. It is so refreshing to see clothing from ALL designers, at really affordable prices. I truly believe that great customer service impacts sales and keeps them coming back, and I love what I do!
