Retro (2nd edition)
It had been a long time since we dreamed of a place where thrift store would once again rhyme with good vibes, uniqueness, and affordable prices. Fortunately, our superhero Retro is here to grant our wishes; this is a spot that will now be (very) hard for us to give up. The airy space and well-organized clothes allow us to wander through the aisles without having to search too much, each piece is unique and restored. But more than just a thrift store, this vintage shop is also a true life hub; once a month, a tattoo artist sets up shop for the day and offers us some really cool flash tattoos. Fabien, Alicia, and Melissa are even considering organizing late-night events and DJ sets once it's possible to party freely again.
The best part? Discovering all of this with a super cool 90s playlist. As you can see, we totally fell in love with it.This new Parisian temple of second-hand fashion is just amazing!
