Really lovely old-school pieces - not vintage only in the sense previously owned, but vintage as in truly unique pieces that herald an earlier time. Mercedes truly loves what she does, and it shows!
I've been to Mercedes Bien a few times - it's an absolutely wonderful store. While google's description mentions that it specializes in women's vintage, it's worth mentioning that there is a small (albeit very nice) men's section as well. The owner is incredibly knowledgeable, and it's clear this is a passion project as much as it is anything else. Looking forward to my next visit!
Small store full of beautiful vintage items in fantastic condition. The owner is lovely and very knowledgeable and clearly puts so much time and passion into this store. She hand-writes a label for each item describing its color and texture, materials, modern size, etc. She even suggested styling ideas for the item I bought once I purchased it. Glad I found this spot and I’ll be back!
Best vintage shop ever! Mercedes is my favorite! She has such a good eye, so her collection is always amazing, and she is fantastic at picking pieces for you that you wouldn’t normally choose but that then become your favorite. I have been blessed to experience this phenomenon many times with Mercedes! She is also just so kind and lovely to chat with. She and her shop are true gems. 💖
Had an awesome experience here! Mercedes was so helpful and absolutely lovely to chat with. I had pulled a skirt, didn't love the fit, and Mercedes suggested these beautiful silk pants. They were a little loose so Mercedes offered to walk me through how to take them in (I am new to sewing and mentioned this would be my first project) she took the time to explain and helped me pin them. It was very kind! Great shopping experience with gorgeous, unique vintage items at every turn. Will definitely come back.
