Spotlight On: La Belle Vintage

Calling all vintage lovers! I’m always getting requests for vintage store recommendations, so I wanted to start a “Spotlight On” feature on the blog, where I introduce you to some of my very favorite vintage haunts. At the very least, when people ask me “Where on EARTH do you find these dresses?” I can point them here!

I thought I would get the ball rolling by introducing you to La Belle Vintage, which is literally a treasure trove of vintage confections that will make your heart sing and your Visa card quiver…

Some of my all time favorite dresses have come from this shop, and I can always trust shop owner Sasha to somehow find the most ethereal, dreamy dresses in perfect condition. She is a fellow vintage-lover, so you just know it brings her a lot of joy to help these one-of-a-kind items find their way to their rightful owner. There have been a few incredible pieces from this shop that have found their way into into my vintage-loving arms, that’s for sure….

I do want to mention that La Belle Vintage is an etsy store I have personally shopped in and love – I was given no personal incentive for this post. I chose to feature La Belle Vintage because I honestly adore this shop and trust Sasha to always accurately describe and measure her garments, provide fast shipping, and exceptional customer service. I think it’s important to create a network of sellers that you know you can trust – and support small businesses along the way!
