In the heart of the bustling Grassmarket area stands Edinburgh's oldest second-hand shop. Now one of the best retro stockists in the city, it began life as a gentleman's outfitter in 1840. The stock changes daily and prices are very wallet friendly. A pair of jeans might set you back only £10 and a kitsch Hawaiian shirt just £5. The packed shop is bursting at the seams with glittery frocks, leather jackets and psychedelic shirts.
