If you're ever in Portland, you must check out Encore.  Hands down the best vintage shop I've ever been in (and I've been in A LOT of them).  Lots of amazing clothes, hats, jewelry, purses... literally everything you could imagine, safety stowed away in these incredible glass cases.  It's owned by a very nice woman named Rita.  She was my type of lady.  She told us all about the history of the space (it used to be a jewelry store, hence the wall of cases) and how she incorporated it into her shop (Rita was supposed to get rid of the cases when she moved in, but she said she just couldn't.  They were too beautiful and unique.  I think she made the right decision).  

It's times like these that I wish I was a gazillionaire and could buy everything in the entire store
