User Reviews for Bombshell Vintage

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

I don't usually have much luck at vintage stores, mostly because I don't have the patience. I always feel feel like the racks have been stuffed full of mediocre items with one or two cool things thrown in but at Bombshell, it's just the opposite. The store is full of great clothes in great condition, and looking at the price tags doesn't make you say, "Wait, are they SERIOUS?". The staff is friendly without being in your face and every time I've gone there have been all sorts of new things out. I will definately be back.

The first time I went into Bombshell, I was very pleased to hear that it is owned by the same girl that owns the Lived-In Lover (another great store). Quite unlike her other store, Bombshell's focus is clothing. At the moment, she has more ladies clothing than men's, but her men's selection is still top notch. The store spacious and neatly organized. She has the best selection of ladies coats, cute cloches, and accessories. I found a fantastic black silk-velvet dress from the late '30s/early '40's, with a deeply cut neck and floral trim. The owner was really awesome and offered to hold it for a few days so I could decide if I really wanted it. I did. Her prices are honest and her clothing is in top condition. Go Bombshell!

The best vintage store in town. Everytime I've been to Bombshell I've found something that I loved! Everything is well lit and organized and the racks aren't crammed and crowded together like so many other vintage stores. The ladies who work there are always friendly and accomodating, they get new stuff all the time. It's so wonderful.

Pros: Fantastic selection, awesome customer service, great deals

I was so happy I stumbled upon this place! They have gorgeous dresses, skirts...pretty much everything! I usually have a hard time finding vintage dresses that fit me but this store had more then enough to choose from. The lady said they just opened and I'm glad they did. It's going to be my first shopping stop when I'm looking for a pretty dress!

Pros: Lots of sizes, everything from 50's prom dresses to mod 60's dresses

Cons: closed on mondays
