Penny Arcade Vintage

Penny Arcade Vintage –   
Where Can You Be a Vintage Fashionista?  






This week I visited a shop called the Penny Arcade Vintage. The shop is located at 1177 Dundas Street West. The store is on the north side of Queen Street West. The inside of the store is cleanly kept and organized of the vintage clothes they sell. The store has nice shiny floors with well-designed small carpets. In comparison to the last three vintage shops I visited, the other stores had a variety of selection of both men’s and women’s clothing.

 This store’s demographics mainly targets women’s clothing and they have a portion for men’s clothing. The shop’s clothing has an urban retro feel to it with a variety of clothes ranging from the 80’s to 90’s. It was pretty interesting to see some of the retro fads and looks from back in the day. The shop also has handmade and painted pottery cups and bowls for customers to purchase. Penny Arcade also sells women’s handmade lingerie that is branded Bully Boy, and of course they have a wide selection of unique shoes as well.

 After checking the entire shop out I asked for their business card. The Penny Arcade Vintage business card has the owner’s old family pictures on the front and HANDWRITTEN information on the back, which is pretty different for a business card. The owner of Penny Arcade definitely shows their dedication towards the shop, as it definitely gives off a very personalized and custom feel. Finally, for those ladies who want some personalized and unique vintage clothing for their closet, or any other vintage fashionista, check this place out.
