Top Designer Finds at 2ndTake

A few months ago I did a post on Hand Me Down Handbags where I shared my vintage handbag collection with you all. If you thought that was exciting I have something even more exciting to share with you now – a secondhand designer label store in Sea Point Cape Town. 2ndTake sells international designer brands for women, men, and children at affordable prices.

Take2 has everything from shoes to dresses to handbags to sunglasses. It’s not a typical vintage secondhand clothing shop because it also stocks ‘trendy’ secondhand items rather than just vintage finds. The store sources their secondhand clothing from private individuals, end of season ranges from shops or sample garments from importers and buyers.
