Pretty, vintage inspired dresses, lovely jumpers and cardies, great accessories and a few vintage pieces. The staff here are super friendly and helpful. I often go in just for a look around. The stock is mostly keenly priced but there are also a few pricier bits and pieces so make sure you check the price tag first(a note to self really).

Lovely staff and great vintage dress section downstairs. It’s hard to leave here without buying anything. Unfortunately no student discount.

I can’t imagine a trip to Dublin without visiting this store. I would love to have a store like this in Chicago… or not, because I probably wouldn’t shop anywhere else. This store is a perfect blend of vintage and modern. I can always find something that is unique, that I feel comfortable wearing to work, on a date, out with friends etc. The quality of the clothes has always been very good, especially considering that the clothes are not too expensive(mid-range I would say). They also carry a variety of unique accessories, bags, and scarves. You can order online as well, they ship to the US and I received my items very quickly. When I have been in the store, all of the ladies have been so nice and helpful. It’s really a wonderful shop.(Follow them on Facebook too, I love their posts!)

Mi tienda favorita por el momento en Dublín. Tiene unos vestidos preciosos, de los que me gustan, con dibujos raros de loros y de más prints. Lo único malo es el precio, las cosas más bonitas son unos 60 euros y luego hay cosas de segunda mano y rollo vintage a unos 20 pero no me gusta ir vestida de viejilla con hombreras. Hay alguna cosa por 30 – 40 que está muy bien. Tiene dos plantas y la verdad que también tiene muchas cositas de papelería y libretas para los que nos gastamos dinero en estas cositas.

I loved the vintage-style dresses and coats here, and their prices aren’t super extravagant. That said, I ended up paying 115 euro, even though it was more than I went in wanting to spend, because the dress was just so pretty and unique. The staff is also really cheery and helpful. If you’re looking for true vintage clothes, it’s a small section on the lower floor. But if you’re looking for vintage-style clothes like I was, Carousel is perfect.

Was passing Carousel the other day, which used to be the old Sabotage for girls. I spotted a really cool pink vintage looking dress in the window so ran in. Amongst all the cute but quite young clothes, were 2 rails marked one off vintage finds. I would probably say they were more designed around vintage shape and fabrics than actual vintage, but they were seriously nice. The price was amazing, quirky dresses for about € 49 and just that bit different, that you know they are not high street!!! Definitely worth a look.
