The best vintage store in the area has a magical selection of prom-perfect dresses, especially for the gal that wants to make a statement in a bright and happy fifties gown. You can gather the whole ensemble here, with lots of glam “diamond” earrings, necklaces, and a stellar collection of evening bags. The shop is packed with covetable pieces: a chic Balmain suit, an over-the-top feathered Dior hat, a Hermes scarf in its original box, and this drool-worthy navy blue alligator bag caught my eye. Owner Tove has an incredible eye (and enviable sources). After 23 years of scouting vintage, Tove is still as enthusiastic about her finds as a six-year-old with a chocolate bar. She is the cutest, as is the shop.
