READY TO IT ALL? BEST STREETWEAR Andrew 54 NE 40th Street Miami, 33137 786-641-5146 andrewdowntown.com Heads know Andrew, the Miami-bred skate and streetwear brand with an identity that revolves around its namesake hurricane. After holding down residence downtown, the company relo- cated earlier this year to a gleaming new store- front in the Design District across from Dále Zine’s new digs. Along with a better retail expe- rience, the brand’s collabs — with the likes of alt filmmaker Harmony Korine, Italian dining hotspot Boia De, and Slip-N-Slide Records of Trick Daddy and Trina fame — confirm that they’ve still got their finger on the pulse of local and street culture. BEST VINTAGE CLOTHING STORE Harlow’s Vintage 7617 Biscayne Boulevard Miami, 33138 305-726-4310 harlowsvintage.com Harlow’s Vintage may look like a stylish time capsule, but it breathes new life into old clothes, as well as customers’ wardrobes. This symbiotic relationship is facilitated by owner Mariet Sala- zar’s gifted eye and impeccable taste. While the storefront is only a little over a year old, it is filled with the result of more than two decades of vintage hunting for the best pieces. Uncon- cerned with labels — though you’ll surely find some exceptional brand names here — Harlow’s Vintage understands that your look is your own and you just need the tools to make it a reality. BEST CONSIGNMENT SHOP Second Showing 11655 S. Dixie Highway Pinecrest, 33156 305-971-0747 instagram.com/secondshowingupscaleresale Second Showing is more than a consignment shop; it’s a community. Owner Joanna Barusch started in department-store retail before realiz- ing she could be her own girl boss. Second Showing moved from its original location in South Miami to Pinecrest, where this haven for the stylish has thrived for 24 years. Specializing in high-end shoes, women’s apparel — sizes zero to twenty — and designer handbags like Chanel, Prada, and Gucci, Second Showing embodies a mission of “recycle, restyle, and renew.” You’ll find everything from the perfect manic pixie prom dress to upscale brunch mom ensembles at a fraction of retail prices and with the secure knowledge you’re taking it easier on the Earth. Early on, working women with an eye for af- fordable style were her target audience, but any trip to Second Showing demonstrates that while those loyal patrons remain, there’s a broader crowd now with younger generations swarming the racks. Joanna’s vision has always been cen- tered on women supporting women. It’s not just about looking fabulous, it’s also about shared ex- periences, as mothers introduce their daughters to the shop and friends come together to find new ‘fits and make memories. BEST THRIFT CLOTHING STORE Peachtree Revival Miami Vintage & Secondhand Store 3440 N. Miami Avenue Miami, 33127 305-967-8706 peachtreerevival.com Founded by two young women, besties Dani Klaric and Sara Fedz, Peachtree Revival is a bou- tique that specializes in affordable, on-trend Y2K pieces that has taken both the city and so- cial media by storm. The store’s vibrant interior features checkered floors, painted clouds, and happy purple and pink vibes. It’s an inviting at- mosphere to pull your hair back and dive right into those racks to find a stylish treasure to flaunt on Instagram or at the club. Employees often model some of their newest arrivals on In- stagram, so you can DM the shop directly if you’re interested in a certain piece. At Peachtree, you can score real deals on vintage Prada heels or that Dolce & Gabbana tank top you’ve been looking for on Depop. But the real reason you want to visit Peachtree is for the store’s frequent flash sales, offering clothing for $5, $10, or $15. That’s what sets this store at the top of our list of Miami’s clothing thrift spots. BEST THRIFT STORE Sir Thrifty 8300 NE Second Avenue Miami, 33138 305-989-0519 instagram.com/sirthriftymiami Sir Thrifty, located in the social and culinary hub the Citadel, submerges shoppers in a mental bath of pure nostalgia. The packed store is a ver- itable shrine to pop culture of the latter days of the 20th Century, featuring toys from every era of your youth. You can rifle through Teen Titan comic books, He-Man action figures, VHS tapes of Beetlejuice, plastic sports figurines, and mint– condition copies of just about every Playboy magazine Hugh Hefner ever published. There is a cornucopia of fashionable vintage clothing and even a petit corner bookstore dedicated to local book publisher Jitney Books. If you have any pop culture treasures sitting in your closet or storage unit, proprietor Nassie Shahoulian, whose outsized personality is on display via his faux Garbage Pail Kid image on the store’s busi- ness card, will happily scour through and make an offer.
