    Tips: The store buys vintage and secondhand contemporary designer clothes, but it's picky. Call or check the available handout for the items and name brands the store is most interested in buying.

Now that Westsiders have their very own vintage paradise, they can skip the drive to Melrose Avenue for stellar vintage finds.

One block from the chain-ridden Third Street Promenade, Wasteland brings an edgier, homegrown feel to the neighborhood. The racks hold a wide selection of vintage clothing, mainly from the '40s to the '80s, although there is a lot of contemporary designer resale to be found. The fashions lean toward the rock-star end of the style spectrum; plenty of loud pantsuits, colorful dresses, stiletto heels and retro-cool cowboy boots are here. —Mai Dinh
