Shop Vintage Dallas | The Instagram Gallery
A few years ago, I stumbled across the @ShopVintageDallas Instagram page and fell in love! My obsession with mid-century furniture was instantly fueled and I’ve been saving screenshots of all the pieces I want in my own apartment ever since. With a large following of other home decor lovers across the nation, you’ll want to be sure to act quickly when you spot a gem because they sell in the blink of an eye! Items are also available to view on their website or at their showroom by appointment to meet your favorite pieces in person.
The world of pre-loved goods isn’t the only piece of Dallas shopping you should check out. The city also has its fair share of unique boutiques filled with treasures worth scooping up!
