This is the coolest store in the coolest city, Miami! This store has been around since the mid-1980s making it one of the oldest second hand clothing stores in the area. It is is family-owned and operated by Mary Kyle Holle and and Diana Kyle. Today Miami Twice is famous as a destination for vintage clothing lovers.
Parking is free out front and free parking in Miami is a small miracle. Inside the door you will a mixture of new and used clothing and accessories that span the past century. This store is perfect for Halloween and theme parties. Every October, the store is transformed Into a Halloween costume boutique. Some items can even be rented.
There are so many unique and cute new items like a skirt covered in planets and a mushroom dotted dress. The vintage items are separated by decades. Items range from inexpensive to high end designer. The hundreds of hats are amazing. Don't forget the shoes, purses, and jewelry. There was an entire cabinet of silver pieces and some home decor items. The Louis Vuitton collection and designer handbags are a fashionistas dream. Really the whole store is. If you are someone who knows how to style outfits and you want something everyone else doesn't have, this is your store. I found the salespeople to be friendly and helpful but not hovering. Follow them on Instagram for inspiration and to see their latest and greatest. The next time you are invited to an 80's themed bash or a 60's soirée, head on over to Miami Twice. They will have exactly...
Read moreI have a newfound fondness for this low-key Bird Road boutique. Having stopped by maybe a handful of times since the first over 20 years ago, their vintage selection's remained as eclectic as the assistants are attentive and courteous.
This past Mother's Day I was helped by Emma—a sharp, enthusiastic blonde from Romania. It wasn't long into our chat before she noticed the women whom I was there for—one young and modern, the other elderly and classical—held her own appreciation for the history of things. It was then that I was led to pair of display cases bearing maybe a hundred peculiarities, and suddenly whisked through a micro-history of Victorian cameos, to 1920's couture, to post-WW2 Bakelite artisanry, to the fibrous distinctions of bone and ivory, to her penchant for rare poison vessels, down to memories of her grandmother—once a museum curator in Communist Romania.
By the tail-end of maybe an hour, I'd made out with a tiger eye on sterling pendant studded in fresh water pearls, a bracelet with a glorious amber inset, and a wooden darning egg with sterling stem. Thanks to Miami Twice's Emma, what'd begun as merely shopping for Mother's Day gifts ended with a flavor profile of cultural-trends-through-the-eras still tingling...

We went here looking for a flapper dress. I know that looking for such a specific and unique thing last minute is going to cost you. I’m glad there’s a place like this around.

I thought it would be around $15-20, but when I went to pay it was $40!?! 🤯 It was a very simple headband with a feather on it! There are a lot of cool things in the store. Different eras, like the 50’s, 60’s, 80’s etc. They also had a clearance section and a designer section (with extra expensive stuff!) There are a lot of designer bags behind the counter. A lady came in and asked how much a large black Channel bag was. It was $4500! So be aware that this is not a thrift store in any way. It is however a great place to get some really cool vintage stuff for your 20’s themed party, or throwback to...
