When Tieka and I were walking around NYC on one of our last days in the city, we happened across a couple vintage shops. It was so amazing to actually be in a place that had legit vintage stores, unlike Anchorage, where it's mostly just thrift stores which mean only a few awesome vintage finds now and then). My love for vintage clothing was again solidified and I really wish I lived in a place where there was a better vintage selection. Maybe at the end of the Brave trip I'll find myself living in a place where vintage thrives! But for now, my vintage thirst can only be satisfied online (even though I can't afford to buy any clothes until the Brave trip is over. Gas tank takes precedence over clothes...). I love that the internet has provided such great places to buy vintage, like Market Publique, Etsy, Ebay, etc.
Since I can't actually buy anything for a while, here are some of my favorite dresses from LA Vintage for you guys to ogle and perhaps buy so I can live vicariously through you....
While my favorite are dresses (why do I always gravitate towards dresses? I don't know... I just do!), they also have everything from skirts to shoes as well as a whole assortment of accessories. Check it out!

Cool post! There aren't many amazing vintage stores where I live either, just odd thrift stores most of the time! xxx
GOD! I'm so in love with the Pastel Dream Prairie Dress. It's a real vision!:)

They are all so very lovely. The girl in the last picture is one of my best friend's cousins named Rachelle! I don't know her though. I love these shops' clothes though!
Oh, I like the Oaxaca Dress... it looks so much like Summer, warm temperatures and by now I m still far away from accepting that winter is kind of around the corner...
Hmm, there are a couple of good vintage stores around here and of course the thrift stores. So maybe you just have to look for small towns with huge universities, otherwise it's probably just about big cities.
wow i can totally picture you in that pastel pink dress it is totally you!!

I love the cheap thrills dress.
I love the look of vintage stores, {we don't seem to have any down under} but I am not sure that I would prefer them to thrift stores. Aren't they more expensive?
