Although L.A. is a town that is mad about vintage, we're not always gung-ho to hop in our car and trek all over town in search of the perfect turn-of-the-century lamp or hand-embroidered lace dress. So, we've always got an eye on innovative and interesting ways to shop second-hand goods from the comfort of our own bed. Lucky for us (and you!), we've just discovered an online vintage store that is skillfully curated by super-cute L.A.-based stylists (and couple!) Jared Frank and Samantha Jacober. Their new e-store, Topsy Design, is filled to the brim with immaculate fashion finds, and the design is just as great-looking and user-friendly, too. As new products come in, they appear on the homepage, so you can shop the oldies-but-goodies as they become available. It's like the best tag sale ever, all on your laptop!
If you're searching for a pair of deliciously beat-up combat boots, beautifully restored crocheted purse, hand-cobbled oxfords, or even a rugged rucksacks, this is definitely your new fave online shopping stop. Plus, we're in love with the one-of-a-kind artwork and furniture on digital display. The hand-woven wicker chairs, framed King George coronation flag from 1910, medical oddities, and fantastic framed butterflies are like porn for your inner interior decorator. Sure, the prices are a little steep, but consider how you'll be supporting your local economy and saving on gas money you'd have to spend on your monthly Rosebowl Flea Market fix!
