Catwalk

Mecca for stylists, designers, editors and vintage aficionados, Fairfax Village's gem of a boutique is a glam oasis in the middle of streetpunkville.

Owners Michelle Webb and Renee Johnston, the costume designer for films such as "This Is Spinal Tap," have held court on the corner of Fairfax and Oakwood since 2002. Fashion fiends, shophawks and anyone interested in what high-end vintage accents will be cool next season love the impressive collections of Gucci, Hermes and Chanel eyewear, Yves St. Laurent and Manolo Blahnik pumps and classic Chanel flats and two-toned platforms. Brocade Moschino coats, party frocks, handbags and much more finery can be found on the store's neat, color-coordinated racks.

These girls know vintage!

by diordarling at Citysearch

These girls don't suffer fools lightly, and unfortunately people confuse vintage with flea market. I enjoy the girls at Catwalk, but then again, I know quality vintage when I see it and respect what they have to say. Renee has an eye for what works, and their collection is outrageous!

This place is Nirvana for those of us who want to look fabulous. If you think the prices are too high, perhaps the Fairfax flea market is the place to go.

• Pros: Incredible collection of clothing and accessories.
• Cons: Patience when it comes to finding parking on Fairfax.
