The Thousands

littlest VINTAGE may have swapped their Prospect Road digs for a Glen Osmond shopfront better suited to their moniker, but little else has changed. Matt, Lauren and Mecia are still spending their days sourcing and refurnishing goods from yesteryear, under the watchful gaze of Ms. Wong and the unnamed yellow elephant (the only two items not for sale in the entire store).

The trio’s interior decoration skills have adapted to this new location, with arrangements of old and new stuff so good looking you almost don’t want to purchase something and ruin them (I said almost). Felt hair slides from local artist Vivienne Milk perch alongside a vintage Lemair Deluxe typewriter, while across the room Peachpatrol’s adorable greeting cards nestle either side of vintage dolls with hair more voluminous than I could ever dream of. The carefully curated array of men’s and women’s vintage clothes, shoes and accessories is as good as ever, and if you’re in the market for cowboy boots I challenge you to find a better selection.

Entering the new littlest VINTAGE feels like stepping into the best retro museum ever; one where all of the objects on display are not only lovely to look at, but can be yours for a startlingly reasonable amount of dollars and cents – another thing that hasn’t changed.
