Does someone you know look like she shops at edgy boutiques but says, "It's vintage and only cost $20" with a satisfied smirk? Chances are she shops at this Echo Park store.

Just look for the bright-red-and-blue exterior as well as the rack of sale items that seems permanently planted on the sidewalk and you've hit this vintage spot. Crammed with tons of dead-stock clothing, hats, bags and jewelry from the '40s all the way up through the '80s, Luxe de Ville is the germinator of many an Eastside trend. When the rest of the world is paying beaucoup bucks to stock up on new (!) '80s-esque fashions, savvy shoppers get the real thing here for a fraction of the price. Also, if you're still lamenting the fact that you never bought that Duran Duran Seven and the Ragged Tiger T-shirt when you saw them back in '83, chances are it's here—there's also a killer selection of rocker Ts.
