STOCK VINTAGE




I love vintage shopping, but probably a bit less than I should. I think I like the idea more than I like the pressure of finding the one amazing thing. I always end up wanting what the person next to me has found, and there is always the suspicion that there is a bigger, better vintage warehouse that people in the know are rifling through, while I am rummaging through the stuff that has already been triple-filtered to remove all the good bits.

So the idea of a store where all the good bits end up, and a store that is styled to look like an enticing emporium without the damp, limp check shirts and the vintage smell, well - my kind of shop. And, darling, they all go there apparently - Ralph, Tom. I think that the RRL stores use Melissa Howard and her stock to supply the vintage pieces they mix in with their reconstructions. In short it sounds, and looks, pretty amazing.
