Retro 101 and Cherry Bomb Vintage

Pin It

Cherokee St. in St Louis is famous for the vast row of antique shops. Among them is "Retro 101 and Cherry Bomb Vintage" a darling little shop loaded with all things vintage. They have many retro light fixtures, pieces of furniture and other home decor items but more than anything, it's about the clothes! Wall to wall, ceiling to floor, the shop is packed with glorious vintage hats! Every color, shape, size and material that you can imagine. They have a fabulous selection of vintage shoes in the back of the shop, along with purses and vintage bras, corsets and various "unmentionables". The racks are well organized, many of them are according to color, which is great if you have something particular in mind. They have a variety of lovely special occasion/formal dresses as well as 50's house dresses, blouses and even vintage pants. Don't go without your man, though- half of the shop is full of guy's clothes! If there isn't enough to look at, there's also a basement full of great finds! I couldn't leave the shop without this amazing green polka dot dress. Green is my color and when I tried it on and saw how it fit (*sigh*) I almost wanted to ask if I could wear it home!
