One-of-a-Kind Vintage Dress

Vintage clothes are a hot trend right now, but how do you find great vintage clothes without spending hours searching through thrift store racks?

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Step 1

Figure out if you have a particular event that you are shopping for, or if you just want a great new piece to add to your wardrobe. It will be easier if you know what type of clothing you might need. However, this is a wonderful site to simply browse. There's sure to be something that catches your eye.
Step 2

Once you know what you are looking for, got to http://www.modcloth.com/
Step 3

One the left hand column, the link to "One of a Kind" will let you browse all of their unique, authentic vintage pieces. Check this page often, as the items sell quickly. Don't worry, though... they also update this page frequently.
Step 4

For every day pieces with a retro flare, look at the other clothing links. Be sure to check out their shoe and accessory sections! Also, the Apartment section has fantastic decorations, kitchenware, tech-gifts, and books.

Tips & Warnings

This site is great for buying gifts. No matter who you're shopping for, you can find an off-beat, interesting gift.
With every purchase, ModCloth sends you a gift. I always get either a $5 off coupon, and almost always receive a free pair of earrings or a bangle.
ModCloth has AMAZING end of season deals, especially on winter coats. I bought a mid-thigh-length fitted coat with a quilted lining for $70. I believe it was originally $170.
They have wonderful customer service.
