Super cute women's thrift/vintage store in Lyon. We were looking for some good vintage sl thrifting…read moreand I will say, it was shockingly hard to find. There's a lot of vintage but it either is extremely high end or catered towards men in Lyon. I will say if I see another multi colored windbreaker and video game/band tea from the 80s or early 90s, it will be too soon.
Well it's fun to see what other countries and cultures, our valuing, as somebody who lived through the 80s and 90s, I don't understand why it's somehow the height of hipster fashion these days. We were looking for some real quality women's thrift shopping and we found that at Carey Brad shop. The proprietor was very sweet and his English was very good. He was really helpful and, let us know he traveled all around to find his pieces. He was also helpful, and what we were looking for.
We only had a chance to stop in for a little bit. The only reason I didn't get five stars is it opened a little bit late, and while it's most likely a sole proprietor, an hours are limited most likely due to Covid, and less of a tourist population, if I do find myself in Lyons I will definitely be going back again.
If you're there, highly recommend. Lots of really cute accessories, shoes, and well priced. As noted, there's high end women's vintage in France, a lot of Chanel, and designer, but this spot had quite a variety of price points, and was not high end, but high-quality.
