In early summer team wolf and pearl went on a road trip through France and Spain. Here is some information on what we discovered in Barcelona.

The Shop: Flamingo Kilo - Carrer dels Tallers, 31 - is a chain kilo store. It has several shops located around Barcelona, and more in cities around Spain.

The Range: is mainly 80's and 90's casual wear. If you are looking for evening or dressy wear, you may need to look elsewhere. The shop is well-stocked, but quality is varied, so you may need to rummage to find what you want.
The Prices: go from 13 to 24 euro per kilo, depending on the item of clothing. Confusing at first, but staff can explain the system. There are also some nice up-cycled denim pieces at a set price.
The Verdict … a cool experience. You will find bargains if you have time to search, but perhaps some stuff is a little over-priced.

The Shop: Love Vintage - Carrer de Bertrellans, 7 - is a sweet little shop in the middle of the Raval district. The guy who works there is very helpful.

The Range: is really good, they have items from many different eras and styles. The shop stocks both casual and dressy pieces, in a wide range of colours.
The Prices: are fair, and bonus (if you are on a budget), they also have a bargain box. Found some gorgeous dresses for a steal.
The Verdict … It is a bit off the beaten track, but worth a detour. You’re bound to pick up something unique.

The Shop: VV Vintage - Carrer dels Tallers, 23 - was very cool. The guy who owns it was nice and wears his own retro style.
The Range: is high quality vintage clothing from all different eras. The stock is in excellent condition, and they are all one-off pieces. Lots of casual and dressy options.
The Prices: are very fair and he gives a discount for bulk buy. There are no price tags on the pieces themselves, you pick the pieces you like and the shop owner will tell you how much.
The Verdict … The favourite, worth checking it out when you are in Barcelona.

The Shop: PNB - Carrer de Ramelleres, 17 - is really spacious with a retro layout. It has a really good variety of vintage stock, for both men and women.

The Range: is really good. They have a collection of high quality, one-off pieces, and they have a large selection for men.
The Prices: are a little higher than some other vintage stores, but it’s worth it if you want something that will last.
The Verdict … For the quality, and the unique style, PNB is worth paying that little extra.
