    Is there anywhere in dublin to get decent vintage or 2nd hand clothes? Some people always manage to get fab stuff in them but there doesn't seem to be anywhere in dublin. The charity shops mostly have rejects from my granny's wardrobe so there have been no amazing finds there!

    Eager Beaver and Wild Child in Temple Bar.
    You can find some good stuff in charity shops, especially bags.
    There are a few on Camden Street. Georges St. and two on Liffey St that are all good. Also a good few in Rathmines. There is good stuff you just need to look and imagine what you could wear or use it for. Like take it out of context of the shop.

    If you ever go to Berlin, there are so many great ones, in particular they have one or two where you pay €14 per kilo of second hand clothes. Amazing!

    Jenny Vander has the most amazing things, unfortunately, a lot of her stuff isn't very cheap but you do get something which nobody else as compensation. I <3 Jenny Vander sooo much :)

    It's on Drury St, behind South William St. Jenny Vanders is actually around the corner form the Harlequin, so it's great if you have time to spend rooting for a great item in either shop. I found my Paul Costelloe jacket in the Harlequin one day when I was there for maybe an hour looking through the rails :D
