Chic Tip: Where to Buy Vintage in Paris

As seen on SecondCityStyle.com

Must shop vintage stores in Paris:

Free P Star: metro- Hotel de Ville, 8 rue St. Croix de la Bretonnerie
My absolute favorite vintage store in Paris, located in the heart of the trendy Marais. Always busy, but worth the crowds. You can find everything here: dresses, sweaters, jeans, bags, boots. Be sure to check out the downstairs (but be careful not to break your neck on the tiny staircase!) as everything in the basement is 10 euros (about $12). Be prepared to dig as this store has a mass of merchandise. Great bargains, great atmosphere… a must see!

Kiliwatch: metro- Etienne Marcel, 84 rue Tiquetonne
More pricey than the store above, but also a great place for vintage and new merchandise (located in the back of the store). More individualized items can be found such as jewelry, band t-shirts, and leather pumps. Both women’s and men’s apparel sold.

Rag: metro- Hotel de Ville, 85 rue St. Martin
A well-known vintage store in Paris. Popular for an older crowd. The most expensive on the list, but worth the cost. Vintage French designer pieces are here (I had my eye on an Hermes scarf for 85 euros). It is conveniently located near other vintage stores around the Centre Pompidou.
