"Some other places that are ideal for finding vintage clothing, in my case it all started with my grandmother. So perhaps you have some people in your family who have some things stored away and don't want anything to do with them. You might get lucky and find some items there. Some other places that you might find are around Halloween time. A lot of stores will bring out vintage or vintage replica and you can find some really cool items there around Halloween time or where ever your favorite Halloween place to shop is. Also maybe a little more spending you want to do or give you a little more money, maybe you don't want to bother with the thrift store, a great great place to go is E-Bay. You can look on-line and I found some amazing pieces there. There is a little risk sometimes when you are buying things on-line because you don't get to try it on, but it is worth a shot. Most things on E-Bay I found they price them fair. You can find some really nice items for a fair price on E-Bay and you can search really specifically. E-Bay has created a vintage specific shopping portion on their site so it makes it real easy to break it down in decades. If you are looking for something in the 1950's, you can click on that, the 60's and 70's and you can break it down like that. There is an assortment of things that you can look through. So that is another great place to look. There are also websites you can look to. So if you are on-line, you can type in vintage clothing. You can find some great websites that offer vintage clothing. It might be a little bit more than what you find on E-Bay because those guys know their stuff. You can also find some great vintage replica items. For example, the dress I am wearing looks like a great vintage. Actually it is a modern day to look vintage. It looks vintage and this one is by E.C. Star. You can find some great stuff on-line. This one here also is a vintage replica and do they a great job. A lot of these places realize that people are wanting to find some vintage clothing but it is getting more and more limited. There is a company that is making some really great pieces that look vintage with some great detailing such as this. What is really nice about the modern day vintage replica is they fit the modern day woman. I think back in the day they had smaller torsos and it is harder to find to fit for a modern day woman so the vintage replica websites are great. See this one is by Stop Staring. They are probably one of the most popular vintage replica clothing line if I may say so myself. They make some great pieces. So just remember you have E-Bay, look on-line, just type in vintage clothing and there is a whole bunch of stuff out there. And again, Halloween you can find some great pieces. So that is just some tips where you can find some vintage that works for you outside the thrift store and the yard sales. "
