A Very Nasty Vintage Site Threatens Our Dwindling Savings

By Tina Malred

We'd like to make an amendment to the recent glorious feature we did on our favorite E-commerce sites. We just had a fun chat with the owner and brilliant purveyor of the Nasty Gal site, Sophia Amoruso, and while that was enough to get us all worked up about thrifting and digging up incredible hard-to-find vintage, it was really nothing compared to a visit to her site. Not only is the design incredibly fun and inviting, her stock is way good. There's an emphasis on '70s and '80s treasures, but we're more inclined to falling for the more decadeless-looking wares, like a combo Native-American military jacket (isn't that a contradiction in terms?), a ruffled candy-striper dress, and of course, those crazy Testarossa safety shades. Nasty and nice, all a click away.
