Vintage Vantage Point!

Let’s get straight to the point of today’s blog. Times are tough, people are nervous and we all want a killer deal. Recently I have turned to vintage stores to find some great pieces to add to my ever-growing wardrobe. If you have the time and gumption, you should head out and try the same thing. Really sift through vintage shops and don’t be afraid to ask for a better deal. You never know what treasures you might find.

Here is the Planet Style guide to vintage shops in Los Angeles and the surrounding areas.

Sirens and Sailors located in Echo Park is a favorite. Here you will find pieces from Chloe, the legendary Halston and many other noteworthy designers. You can’t go wrong with a piece from their racks of dresses, accessories and more dating from the 1940’s to the 1980’s.

Hubba Hubba located in Burbank, says it all. Not only will you score great deals, but people will be catcalling, “hubba hubba” when you wear the clothes you find here. Expect to find affordable prices, friendly staff and amazing pieces.

I always thought clothes heaven existed only in my closet. That was until I found Clothes Heaven in Pasadena. Trust me when I say it’s worth the drive to finger through their collection of vintage couture pieces.

Without a doubt, there are many other great vintage shops in LA. The above just happen to be a few of my top shops. If you have a favorite and would like to see it mentioned, please feel free to email me. I will stop by, have a look around and we can add it to the list!

Happy Shopping!
