my vintage YSL's & me | LE CATCH

I snapped up my YSL heels at a store called Tavin in Silverlake. Total score! They are reminiscent of the Prabal's but they wind up higher on the leg. May 17, 2013 at 11:55 AM · Julie Ann Orsini said... They are tom ford for YSL ...

The top is Mexican, I believe, sourced from a vintage store in LA called Tavin. I bought it several months ago, but the store stocks pieces that are similar, along with loads of ethnic-chic clothing. http://blogbytavin.blogspot.com/.

"One Of Our Fave Boho Boutiques Is Throwing You A Bone!

By Lilian Min

Sequined green tap shorts. Riotously vibrant prints. Delicate gowns that would make Daisy Buchananswoon. Such is the wild variety stocked by the infinitely covetable Tavin boutique. Clothing buyer, stylist, and costumer Erin Tavin's eponymous L.A. shop boasts stunning statement pieces that run the gamut from hand-sewn boho dresses to funky jackets. But you don't have to break the bank to cash in on these one-of-a-kind goodies!

You might still be recovering from holiday retail trauma, but trust us, one look at these ultra-chic clothes and accessories and you'll be resuscitating your credit line stat. If you really need another reason to justify adding some of Tavin's far-out flair to your wardrobe, here's one: Take 10% off your purchases throughout January. Stop by the Echo Park location or its Etsy shop, and don't freak out if you can't choose between all the wondrous goods — you have all month to make up your mind.

When: Now through Thursday, January 31; Thursday through Sunday, 1 to 6 p.m.
Where: Tavin, 1543 Echo Park Avenue (between Delta and Grafton streets); 213-482-5832.

Whether you're looking for 1960s Peggy Moffitt mod couture 
or 1980s stonewashed denim castaways from the Valley, Los Angeles 
has a vintage and second-hand shopping scene that's bursting at the
old-school seams. In a city known for making old things look fresher 
than they really are, it's no surprise that L.A. yields some of the best 
vintage in the country. So whether you're cruising the red carpet, 
taking road trips to the desert or ordering your third cup 
of Intelligentsia, retro always rocks.

Here are our picks for the 10 best vintage and second-hand boutiques in L.A

9. Tavin

Stepping into Tavin is like falling into Joni Mitchell's walk-in closet circa Ladies of the Canyon. Gauzy summer dresses, lace shawls, floral headscarves, '70s Afghani tunics and faded objets d'art make this little treasure trove a must for wistful-eyed romantics and wild poets. Even the price tags are handwritten, with little thoughts penned by store owner Erin Tavin (you'll recognize her by her abundant blond curls). With some dresses above the $300 mark, this is a store for boho jetsetters rather than starving thrifters, a place to pick out looks for that next trip to Marrakech, that yoga retreat in Ibiza or that romantic weekender in Tulum. 1543 Echo Park Ave., Echo Park

Thanks LA Weekly and Tavin Fans!

My Top 5: 
Erin Tavin of Tavin Boutique x Culture Mix
Posted by Kathryn Wahl on Monday, May 21, 2012 

If you’re craving a shopping experience that’s exactly that: an experience, look no further. Former clothing buyer, stylist, actress, and costumer Erin Tavin combined her love and knowledge of fashion, fantasy,and travel and opened her very own TAVIN BOUTIQUE in Echo Park back in 2009. Full of one-of-a-kind gems, the shop is a lovely blend of old and new, nostalgia and modern. Erin describes herself as having, “One foot in a world one hundred years ago and one foot in this world today, and somewhere in a circus tent I live as well.” As unique and interesting as the choices are in her store, Tavin shares her well-rounded “Top 5 Culture Mix”…

Getaway: Big Sur. “Especially the hot springs at Essellon,my favorite place in California for total peace and a slice of heaven.”

Song: Suzanne but Leonard Cohen. “It sounds old fashioned but I’m still hooked on Leonard Cohen’s song; it always makes me cry after thousands of times hearing it.”

Novel: Madame Bovary. ”One of my all time faves, it’s got everything you could want in a novel. I’m a HUGE reader so I also have to mention Flaubert’s Sentimental Education, it’s fantastic.”

Poem: “Leaves of Grass” by Walt Whitman. “A very beautiful poem that’s on my wall in my yurt/studio. Everyone should read it!” 

Designer: Comme des Garçons. “I’m drawn to ethereal clothing. My shop, TAVIN, has a lot of romantic qualities.”
