Vintage & secondhand shops in Plzeň, Czechia

UPDATED in September 2023 Every time I travel somewhere and know I will have some time on my hands I check for some vintage and secondhand shops that might be in the city and that look good enough to pay them a visit. It is not difficult to find lists and articles or even maps with vintage and secondhand shops when it comes to capital cities or big cities in general but when you want to find shops in a city that is not frequented that much by people that are into fashion it is quite a problem. This is why I am putting together this list of vintage and secondhand shops + markets that are worth visiting in Plzeň.

The background of the DONUT HAIRDO

I had loved this hairstyle before it was worn by masses. A few years ago I had had a special plastic stick round which the hair had to be wrapped and then fastened.

Has anyone thought of where the hairstyle came from? I can be wrong but it reminds me of

Trend spotting: Choker necklaces

This article is all about the chokers. This time I will not be going into their possible symbolic meanings as I did in one of my articles already. Read more about the symbolism of choker necklaces . Tento článek se věnuje obojkům. Tentokrát se nebudu zabývat tím, jakou mohou mít symboliku, protože o tom jsem psala v jiném článku . Chokers were very popular in the 1990s, during my childhood. I liked to wear them a lot in my early teens because I was somewhat a goth girl (although back then I did not really know much about the existence of some goth subculture - I learned about it a bit later). They became fashionable once again like two years ago. First I noticed the chokers I have known from the 1990s on one fashion blogger whose personal style is grunge. Later on the chokers became a thing again. I am not 100 % sure but it looks like chokers are mainly popular in the USA. I suspect that the Kardashians might have had some influence on it because the Kardashian sisters can be
