Talking about the UK, what keywords do you think represent the UK?

Sister Barta will list them for you: red phone booths, double-decker buses, plaid patterns, well-dressed British gentlemen, Harry Potter School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and the exquisite British afternoon tea that pig girls love most~~

~ From the buildings on the street to the oldest subway in the world, you can feel the British obsession with vintage.

This stubborn vintage lifestyle is reflected in all aspects of British life. Some people think that vintage is those second-hand, second-hand goods and the like... What?! Second-hand ≠ vintage!!! The so-called vintage is not second-hand in a narrow sense.

Goods, but things that are truly dated and no longer produced. The well-preserved vintages have a very delicate sense of age and a unique temperament given by the baptism of time.

In fact, British vintage has its own attitude, and it has become a new fashion today.

Now, let’s go to London to start a Vintage shop tour.

1 BLITZ 55-59 Hanbury Street, E1 5JP The first stop, Sister Bata will take you to Blitz in East London!

It is known as the largest vintage store in the world and was rated as one of the 100 must-visit stores in London by the British version of "Time Out".

The two-story large space has everything from clothes, shoes, jewelry, to second-hand records, books and antique furniture. It is a paradise for little fairies who love retro style. Blitz is more like a retro department store than a retro store!

Staying all day is no problem!

Blitz's leather clothing has been reprocessed, so it has very little smell, which can be said to be a very attractive advantage, because many second-hand stores are not very good at removing smells.

Compared with most vintage stores in London, its prices are slightly higher, but they often distribute various leaflets with discounts on the street, so everyone must remember to get the leaflets before going to the store.

Consumption!

Blitz is also a place where many fashion designers find inspiration. Someone you pass by may be a big-name designer in the future. For example, fashion design masters Alexander Mcqueen and Vivienne Westwood were frequent visitors here when they were young.

2 RELLIK 8 Golborne Road, London W10 5NW Rellik is located in West London, adjacent to Portobello Road Market.

Here you'll find a wealth of high-quality women's clothing and accessories from British designers dating back to the 1930s.

Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a collection store of British designers' works from the past.

Rellik pays special attention to the maintenance of fashion, and all products are as new as new.

And there are a lot of items of all kinds, from head to toe.

Especially those who like Vivienne Westwood, the British Queen Mother, can do some shopping here, because this store has a lot of Westwood items!

This is also one of the shops that many celebrities like to visit, including Lady Gaga and supermodel Kate Moss. They are frequent visitors here and are often photographed entering and exiting by paparazzi.

So maybe you can meet a big star here?
