Vintage shopping does not mean thrifting by any means. Vintage shopping consists of the art of uncovering that incredible piece of clothing, purse, or jewelry made a few decades ago that, without a lot of searching in the right place/store, you would never find. New York has quite a few vintage stores that are sure to present to you the high-end treasures you didn't even know you needed.
