đŤđˇ Lyon Just Stole Paris' Vintage Crown! đ
Move over, ParisâLyon is the new vintage paradise! Spent a day treasure-hunting near HĂ´tel de Ville, and hereâs why this city left me obsessed: đď¸ Vintage Heaven (Without the Paris Price Tag!) đ Around Place des Terreaux (5+ shops in walking distance!) đ° Prices 30% lower than Parisâ Le Maraisâwith better quality control. ⨠Highlights: Hippy Market: 70s denim + Chanel tweed jackets (âŹ50-150!). Freepâstar: Grunge-meets-glam (think Y2K low-rise jeans + vintage Dior). BONUS: Almost every shopkeeper gave me spontaneous discountsâunheard of in Paris! đ˝ď¸ Fueling the Spree â Slake Coffee House: Best oat latte + free WiFi for outfit selfies. đˇ Le Bouchon des Filles: Cozy Lyonnais bistro (try their quenelle dumplings!). đż Lyonâs Secret Perks â Zero crowds (no elbowing through tourists!). â Actual dressing rooms (Paris shops often say "non" to trying on). â Friendly vibes: Store owners chatted instead of side-eyeing. đ¤ Parisâ Vintage Decline Once-loved spots like Kilo Shop now feel: Overpriced (âŹ40 for stained tees? Non merci.). Picked-over (thanks, TikTok hype). Rude staff ("No photos!" while influencers pose freely.). đ How to Get There 2h TGV from Paris (âŹ25 one-way). Pro tip: Stay near Vieux Lyonâcobblestone charm + more thrift stores! #VintageLyon #FrenchThrift #Paris #SlowTravel đŤđˇ
