If you’re looking to shop clothes, and accessories that allow you to stand out look no further visit The Second Shop. The Second Shop is such a fun space stocked with fun vintage pieces marked by age and time.
This past weekend I visited The Second Shop for the third time since their opening in March of last year. The store is absolutely beautiful, the accessories, clothes and household goods are perfectly organized throughout the store. It is obvious that store owner, Shantella was very intentional about sourcing for the store. Combing the racks, I noticed that some of the clothes dated back to the 60s and 70s. No doubt about it, The Second Shop has good vintage finds.
The Second Shop is not only a store but an experience as each garment I pulled transported me to a previous era. I found so many pieces that spoke to my own individual sense of style. The Second Shop embodies all things vintage. The timelessness, originality, embellishments and details of the garments are so impressive.
As previously mentioned, the store is beautiful and organized making the treasure hunt even more enjoyable. The customer service was excellent as the owner is very welcoming, and helpful.
