Be still my heart. There is the most darling vintage shop based in Fettercairn and it has stolen my…read moresoul! From vintage Hermes scarves to beautiful 1950s matching twin sets, this little haven is a must for anyone road tripping up to Aberdeen or looking to buy something a little bit special. It might be a little bit out of the city, but it is truly worth the ride! Housing a wide variety of more modern dresses to classic 1940/50s women's clothing, hats and accessories, this place is perfect for anyone looking to get all dolled up for a special occasion. It is more expensive than the usual vintage places I review, but I have to admit that they have earned it. They have a main dress room, an accessories room and two rooms set aside for wedding outfits - both for brides and for very stylish guests (and mothers!) It may be niche, but gosh darn they have totally nailed it! I love that they know their market and their strengths, and it's really great to see that it was super busy even on a weekday afternoon, which just goes to show that it is a great destination for occasion wear. I'm really happy to share that the staff are really lovely and know a lot about the history of the pieces they're selling (I do love to chat about that whenever I'm buying a second hand piece!) I ended up purchasing my first ever vintage hat here - a ridiculously beautiful powder pink 1940s fascinator complete with the fluffiest ostrich feather I have ever laid eyes on. It's in extremely good condition (to the point I'm certain it's only been worn once or twice and it has been living in a very well to do hat box for the past 70 years) and I was thrilled to bits to learn that was made in bonny Fife! For those of you who are wondering, a treasure like this only cost me £38, but I guess I'm one of the few people who would dare to go out to dinner in one of these still ;)

Rusty Zip is a spin off of Armstrong's, and has all the quality of the vintage outlet crammed into…read morethis compact shop. Armstrong's is sprawled out in a vast space, but I quite liked being able to pick through the packed railings in here without having to travel too far! Garments are nicely ordered, well displayed (as you would expect from an Armstrong's store) and have the same fun, frilly vintage appeal. There are spangles galore, not to mention a decent selection of beaten up cowboy boots. It's worth noting that the clothes shipped off to this outlet are considerably cheaper than in Armstrong's proper, with sparkly 70s disco boob tubes coming in at a fiver! They had some nice leather jackets cheaper than I've seen elsewhere, and a good selection of clothing for guys. They had some great offers on denim shirts - if you buy a denim jacket you get one for free! The shirts were dirt cheap as it was and with denim making a big comeback this season, I can see their Lee shirts selling out faster than a speeding bullet. The staff were friendly and relaxed, going about their business while leaving me free to browse. It's a bit more laid back than Armstrong's and with more bargains. Love it!

As previous reviewers have mentioned, the Rusty Zip is a little sister of Armstrong's, one of the…read morebiggest vintage clothes stores in the City. The Rusty Zip is quite small but crammed full with garments, trinkets and accessories. I personally am a fan of their leather post man bags.My flatmate loved their shoes, which were in very good condition, and not to mention affordable, considering they were leather boots. Their cashmere jumpers are quite nice, and they have a good selection of men's clothing as well. Prices vary depending on the garment in question, and their are some true vintage pieces in here. Whether or not you would ever wear them, or if you question if vintage shops are just over-priced second-hand shops I will leave that to you. I still like the quirky finds in this shop and it's down-to-earth attitude to it's stock. (they even have 70's disco glitter boots for your Abba fever party- not just brand stuff)
