Whether you're looking for a '40s housedress, a '60s polyester suit or a wide-collared '70s jacket, you need only visit Ragg Mopp Vintage, which carries the truest vintage you'll find in all of Silver Lake. Nothing dates past the early 1970s.

While fashion victims across the country line up to buy legwarmers and off-the-shoulder sweatshirts, the folks at this secondhand store are holding their own. Purses, handbags and other favorite fashions of yesterday are available here for very reasonable "vintage" prices—it's more expensive than Goodwill but also better looking and smelling. The pieces may be old, but they're definitely not tattered: Alterations and fixes are made before each piece is priced. And if you're holding onto some oldies but goodies, Ragg Mopp wants 'em. They buy as well as sell.
