With the recent revival of daggy patterned jumpers, old man style brogues and kitsch shirts, op shopping has never been so cool. Melbourne boasts a wealth of secondhand stores, and it is often worth trawling through many in search of that perfect vintage piece. But which op shop is the first one you would go to in search of an indie-chic fix?
Savers is often regarded favourably by fashionable op-shoppers on a budget. Known for being particularly cheap, you can score a whole outfit there for less than you'd spend on lunch. However, while there are many great finds to be had at Savers, you have to really look for them amongst a miscellany of dowdy clothing.
Vintage stores with a more trendy spin, where you can be assured your visit will be worthwhile, include
Retrostar and the
Lost and Found Market . While they are pricier, they take the work out of op shopping.
A middle ground between price and style can be found at the
Posh Opp Shoppe in Glenhuntly. While it is run as a charity with money raised going to children with disabilities, and the prices are kept low for those in need; the Posh Opp Shoppe's interesting wares marketed as 'treasures' set it apart from your garden variety op shop.
What do you think the best op shop in Melbourne is? Let me know in the comments, whether it's your local St. Vinnies or a well-hidden store.
