| - WOW!
THIS is how I could see spending my day!
The owner has the most breathtaking collection of vintage couture I have ever seen!
Yes, I have been to the many famed LA vintage boutiques, they have NOTHING on the Refinery.
She didn't spend millions on the location or set up, its a small strip mall store, but chock FULL, I'm talking no floor or ceiling space left, wall to wall and everywhere in between noting but Chanel, Prada, Gucci, an entire rack of Herve Leger, Blamain, Gaultier, it goes on and on and on and on.
I spent a good two hours and everytime I turned there was more.
Prices are high, but the goods timeless and well taken care of.
You will pay about $1500 for the purses, a couple hundred for the dresses as well as the shoes, the cheapest thing I saw was a pair of $50 Missoni rainboots.
The owner is great, she knows everything about everything and was very helpful.
I fell in love with so many things, a white flowered Fendi B Bag is causing me to lose sleep...
