What a gem of a store!…read more It's a very curated vintage store. They have a really great collection of jewelry. I was particularly impressed with their ring selection. I have made two separate purchases so far and intend to come back again! Everything is super charming, like the drawer of "little guys" (photos attached!) For in store events they have a DJ playing records, you can shop, listen to music, and purchase a beverage to enjoy while you shop. The staff really care about what they do and it shows in the details.

Although most of the clothing was out of my size range, the store offered a variety of options for shoes, jewelry, accessories, home goods, games and the like. There were items available at all price points. The owner was cheerful, knowledgeable and helpful. Definitely check it out if you are in the Boston area.

The emphasis at this location is on fine details that can be held up to a mirror rather than tried on: think accessories, outerwear, and small home accents. It's brilliant! And of course, the staff here are always incredible. They can answer any questions about materials, care, styling...anything you can think of, they know! And for such a cozy size, their selection is wild: everything is organized so efficiently, the volume of it is surprising when you realize. I really have to note the displays here, because they have created this magical effect. The shop has huge windows, which let in floods of daylight. They have arranged these stunning vintage scarves that simultaneously soften the brightness, and also accentuate it with colors, patterns, and textures. It's just a great effect that adds an extra vibrant energy to the space!

This vintage market is a total treasure trove!…read more There is no better cure for the Sunday scaries then perusing trinkets with your besties in the South End. This market was stacked with jewelry, prints, clothing, cameras, vinyls, and so much more. The layout is a little overwhelming and hard to navigate with large influxes of shoppers, however, it does force you to stay put a bit and do a bit more digging in sections. The staff was super friendly, especially the gentlemen who checked me out. I ended up going with this $10 Charlie Brown coloring book page from the 60s which is a great deal!

I came here on a Sunday with my friend. We initially thought they were only open while the other…read morewinter markets were but there's a sign that said they're open every Sunday all year long. My friend is an avid thrifter and she immediately knew this store was legit. A lot of stores claim to be thrifty and vintage but sell mass produced clothing brands. This one had very unique pieces, the items were priced fairly, and among the chaos, there was some order to where things were placed. Some of the sections belong to different people so definitely make your way around the entire store. The staff is very knowledgable and friendly. I could spend hours here, but we had other things on our agenda so we window shopped for a bit, but will eventually be back to purchase some items.

Shop is uncluttered and items are neatly organized. The owner is friendly, knowledgeable, and willing to go the extra mile to get what you need. While I was browsing, a customer came in to the shop asking for something very specific. Off the top of her head, she knew immediately that unique item was not available. Other shop owners would probably use this opportunity to sell similar items that the customer was looking for, but she did not. She even suggested other vintage shops in Boston area where the item may be found. Wow! Three draped dressing rooms available on premise. Street parking and nearby T stop is Charles/MGH. The next time I return, I want to ask the owner if she is willing to sell the antique bar cabinet fixture. It looks so cool! Looking forward in checking Vico's other location in Harvard Square. Look no further, the shop offers something for everyone.

The way this store is set up has a really unique and fresh energy! I went in looking for a special gift for my niece, who, as my little rainbow Gen Alpha, has a much more creative fashion sense than her Elder Goth auntie. The staff here were incredibly knowledgeable, helpful, and hilarious. They are absolute vintage and fashion experts, and you can tell they are genuinely passionate about it. I spoke with Kai, who was THE pinnacle of effortless-eclectic-cool style to which my niece aspires. Unsurprisingly, it was Kai who found the perfect present, and gave me some great tips on how to style it more securely (my niece is a fierce, fabulous, active tween and requires sturdier accessorization). I love it here & will definitely be back!
