Get Awesome, Get Vintage!
If you ask me – and it doesn’t matter if you did or not, because you’re here now and I am gonna tell you! – not enough people know about the amazing thing that is vintage clothing. I know it’s really obvious, but here are a few tips which will help you locate awesome vintage clothing. Don’t follow them at your peril!
1) Look at the charity shops which don’t get all the attention: everyone wants to go to the popular charity shops, but, you guessed it, this means they tend to sell out of stuff quicker. Much quicker. The other places, though, well, they usually have a lot of stock kicking around which you will love. You’ll never find it if you don’t give them a chance, though.
2) You don’t need to stay in your city or even your country: take me for example – up until last month I had literally no idea that Germany had so many cool charity shops. But man, they do, and they’re just as good if not better than the UK too. For some reason, they also seem to be much more funky on the continent, too, which means that you can find stuff which you’d really struggle with in England.
3) Put an ad on Gumtree: looking for vintage clothing, or something like that. Yes you’ll probably get emails from people wanting to sell you a couch roll or something else that’s useless, but you’re also sure to get messages from people who have cool stuff to give you, often for free! Now, you can’t say fairer than that, can you?
