I love the Vintage Warehouse,It is one of those real gems which have loads of fabulous vintage clothes and you can't get better than the bargain prices.
You have to rummage through the rails but ecah time I have visted I have always found some great items to add to my collection of vintage clothes.

There is something for everyone's taste from bright and beautiful to the subtle and cool items.
I love the accessories more than anything as it's like looking though a treasure chest of vintage jewels.

You can't miss the building as it's a huge yellow one situated not far from Selfridges Department store.
A must for all fashionistas who want something different & unique.

Big and yellow, well worth a rummage 1st September 2008

Just slightly out of the centre of Birmingham - past the Selfridges building and towards the coach station in Digbeth - is a huge, yellow warehouse. Inside are industrial rails hung from the ceiling, crammed with vintage clothes of all descriptions - men and women's clothes, party wear, dodgy 80s bridesmaid dresses, shoes, bags belts and so forth.

Finding a gem in this place takes an open mind and persistence - its worth trying something on if you're not sure, and please keep digging amongst the rails of polyester monstrosities because you will find something lovely - I have amassed a nice collection of unusual shirt dresses and printed skirts from there, all in great condition and well priced at about £12 a dress.

There is also a small collection of modern costume/plastic jewellery and a rail of over priced top/dresses made out of vintage material - but at over £20 each and often a strange fit, these can be a bit hit and miss.
