About This Store
Side Kitsch Vintage is a charming multi-vendor vintage boutique in Austin featuring the work of 23 local vendors who curate a stunning and diverse selection of vintage treasures. The store offers an impressive range of items including vintage clothing, mid-century furniture, unique home decor, art, lamps, tables, collectibles, rugs, and quirky knickknacks. Customers consistently praise the vast variety and the thoughtful curation of the space, noting that the store is deceptively large and requires time to fully explore. The boutique is connected to a hair salon with a theater-like atmosphere that adds to the unique shopping experience. Many visitors highlight the reasonable and fair prices, especially on home wares, which are often more affordable than other vintage shops in Austin. The staff includes kind and helpful individuals who go above and beyond, such as offering to text vendors to negotiate prices or putting aside items for customers. While the shopping experience is enjoyable and the vintage vibe is warm and inviting, customers should be mindful of the shared parking lot where a predatory booting company operates. Overall, Side Kitsch Vintage offers a fun, relaxing shopping experience with constantly changing inventory that keeps vintage hunters coming back for more.
