TAKE A VINTAGE TRIP with our CROSS-COUNTRY picks.

When it comes to neighbourhood haunts, you can always count on the steady, solid selection at Value Village

(valuevillage.com); seasoned VV thrifters will tell you the less-picked-over loot is best sourced in locations outside of city centres. In Toronto, designer wares live at VSP Consignment (1410 Dundas St. W.)—we’re talking little Gucci dresses, wool coats from Burberry and (old) Céline bags. And just down the street is Chosen Vintage (1599 Dundas St. W.), a purveyor of decidedly less pricey but still thoughtfully curated cool-girl pieces. Tucked into Vancouver’s Gastown district is Hey Jude (315 Abbott St.), which carries a minimalist-inspired collection of vintage. (Think avocado-hued blouses and itty-bitty woven bags.) Calgary’s Kindred Thrift (1221B Kensington Rd. N.W.) boasts an abundance of denim, and over in Montreal, Citizen Vintage’s two popular locations (4059 and 5330 Blvd. SaintLaurent) blend thoroughly modern finds with their own in-house brand. Prefer the e-comm route? There’s been a boom in Insta-hosted vintage shops that do the digging for you, hand-selecting a tight crop of pieces with a cohesive aesthetic. Newly launched Habit Vintage

(@habitvintage), based out of Halifax’s north end, has become popular with the local fashion set for its breezy, wearable vibe. You can scoop up all the dreamy underthings at The Faraway (shopthe faraway.com), a Vancouver Island-based online boutique whose offerings date from as far back as the early 1900s. At the other end of the era spectrum comes luxury-streetwear-focused Kaybee Vintage (kay-bee.ca), which touts itself as “Not your mom’s vintage.”
