Seventh St., #145 602-346-0121 wangs-vintage.business.site We love the simple cool of a vintage T-shirt. Whether it’s a ’90s Phoenix Suns top or an old band shirt, it has a way of being the conversation piece around which the rest of our outfit revolves.

But there are plenty of regional burns, festivals, concerts and parties to attend closer to home, and to look your best, hit up Rave Circus on Mill Avenue. Sexy, shiny clothing for men and women, wild sunglasses, fun hats, eye-catching jewelry — it’s all here, plus hoops, poi sticks and other tools of the rave trade. Not really into that scene?
