Cleveland's vintage haven

Cleveland is known for its restaurants, but what most people don't know is how many vintage stores this city contains. For years my favorite has been Flower Child, because it is like walking through a time capsule, and is almost never-ending. 

This place never disappoints, with home decor, clothing, books and accessories ranging from the 1940s through the 80s. Some of the neatest items I saw this time were leather skinnies from the 80s, a Tiffany blue rotary phone, and a Jackie Kennedy-esque tweed matching suit/skirt.



These were popular in the 50s, as you would just fill the pump with
alcohol and rotate the shot glasses around the spinning tray. These 
may need to be brought back.


I'm sure you could spot a toy or two (or five!) here that you owned as a kid.




Not a cute color at all, but I had to try it on...


...and unfortunately the only place to try on clothes here is in their bathroom!
