"O" So Vintage!

Dechoes, a local vintage and resale boutique, is truly one of a kind. I have personally never been before, but by the time I left, I knew I'd be back. They have everything--and I mean everything. From name brands such as Lacoste, BCBG, and Ed Hardy, to vintage styles that you come across only once in a lifetime, Dechoes has it all.

There are three Dechoes locations in Orlando: College Park, Curry Ford, and Bumby Road. My friend Katie and I went to the College Park location on Edgewater Drive. Although we browsed the racks for almost two hours, I don't think we even got to see it all!

There's a huge selection of women's clothing, shoes, scarves, purses, handbags, and accessories. In all honesty, that's not even scratching the surface. Aside from clothes, there is also an array of antiques and collectibles lining the shelves, sunglasses, as well as a menswear section. They even have little doggie outfits!

Katie and I put an outfit together for her, and trust me--given the selection, it wasn't hard! She ended up choosing an awesome vintage dress, Nine West heels (that only cost $8.99!), and a matching Cole Haan purse. The store itself is eclectic and fun, complete with Louis Vuitton wall murals and hot pink dressing rooms. The staff was really friendly and helpful to everyone, which added to the store's great vibe.

For anyone who likes affordable, fashionably vintage or resale clothes, you can't miss out on Dechoes--I'm officially obsessed, so you'll probably see me there!
