London is the land of vintage stores and charity shops. Here is everywhere I shopped during my quick trip across the pond. Spoiler alert: my top 3 favorites were Paper & Cup, Beyond Retro and Here After!
Shoreditch
18 Calvert Avenue, London E2 7JP
This was the absolute cutest little spot with a few color coded racks of clothing, accessories small homewares, and books. They serve coffee so it's the perfect place to stop when they open for a great start to the day.
Brick Lane

Here After was so expertly curated. Every piece had me more excited than the last. So many gems in this shop!
101 Brick Ln, London E1 6SE
They had a lot of funky up-cycled and handmade pieces. To this day I still regret not getting a corset top I saw in this shop.

There were so many vendors packed into this space it would be too easy to get lost in here and end up spending the entire day looking through different vendor's booths. There is definitely something in here for everyone at any price point!

This store was two massive floors of vintage.
Cheshire Street off Brick Lane
110-112 Cheshire St, London, E2 6EJ
Beyond Retro was really large and had so many amazing pieces at incredibly affordable prices. Their dress selection was next level amazing. For the price and the selection, this place was the best.
