A mix of hosiery from Wolford to Leg Avenue. Crazy printed tights, vintage seamed stockings, saucy fishnets, bow-topped over-the-knee socks, sparkly legwarmers, Pamela Mann’s insanity, Pop My Cherry’s own house brand, and vintage 80’s Mary Quant stuff still in the package, making this a great place to pick up an electric green lace bodysuit. Thanks, TurquoiseRaven!

The poodle skirtier side of the fifties. Crinolines, puff sleeve and peter pan blouses, capris, cincher belts, sheer scarves, initial necklaces, cateye glasses, hair flowers, and poodle purses to top it all off. They also stock a sizeable amount of vintage finds to grace the repro stuff with some choice authenticity.

Flapper fashion cross-pollinated with floppy-hatted L.A. bohemian in soft explosions of lace and tulle, reminiscent of what vintage shopping in the sixties must have been like. Much of it is concocted from found fabrics and elements, and spiced up with period flair: turbans and cloches, harem pantsuits, detachable tattered capelet/bustle combos, bed jackets, “cuff cakes” for the arms and ankles, chandelier necklaces, and a page of 20’s dresses scooped up from various well-dressed eccentrics. Also some bedroom decor and glamorous little dolls.

This vintage site specializes in recovering punk and pinup-style pretties from secondhand stores along with discounts on name-brand stuff, happy to scoop up budget-conscious glamourpusses into their clientele. Lots of great cheap finds for men, women, and kids – tiger print onesies! 70’s gothic disco dresses! Skull thermals! – including Halloween costumes that were once worn somewhere as real-life clothing, and they also carry Manic Panic hair dye, vintage jewelry, and shoes. Thanks, Sara!

Vintage clothes from the fifties through the eighties – and a little bit of nineties beginning to creep in. There’s a clear affection for loud prints, maxi dresses, and Laura Ashley, with lots of cute little handbags in the accessories section, and the Sewing Room department is full of fabric, patterns, and back issues of Stitchcraft magazine for the DIYers.

A shop that truly earns its moniker with page after page of yesteryear finds, leaning more towards the later half of the 20th century. Besides heaping amounts of the usuals, they have everything categorized into collector specifics, so you can jump to the Journey tees or velvet smoking jackets right away. Also lots of fun housewares and other throwback miscellanea in the Cool Stuff section.

Vintage chosen for punk, goth, and glam-rock tastes, loaded with all kinds of 70’s/80’s finds that tend toward the sparkly and weird. Fringed halters, bustier tops, shiny catsuits, bandanna bras, bellbottoms and skinnies, jean jackets and satin belted mod coats, workshirts both loud and sedate, snarky tees, and the accessories section accomodates everyone from retro handbag aficionados to chain-belted rocker babes.
