Love the thrill of thrifting but not the hours of digging? At Spice Scottsdale, we make secondhand shopping easier with a carefully curated collection of vintage clothing, designer accessories, shoes, handbags, and one-of-a-kind finds.
Our curated thrift section, known as The Spice Rack, is designed for shoppers who want unique pieces that still feel current, wearable, and easy to style. With weekly drops, designer deals, it is pretty obvious this was personally curated by the hottest girls in Arizona. I mean Anjalee and Luisa. Same thing, basically.
A More Curated Thrifting Experience
Every item on The Spice Rack is individually sourced and hand-selected by our team. Instead of filling the boutique with endless racks, we focus on a smaller collection of standout pieces that feel special.
Our thrift and vintage drops include:
- Vintage and contemporary designer handbags
- Genuine leather and suede accessories
- Romantic mini and maxi dresses
- Vintage denim, skirts, and statement tops
- Ballet flats, heels, boots, and loafers
- One-of-a-kind jewelry and accessories
- Seasonal pieces selected for Arizona weather
Each item is unique, which means that once a piece sells, we may never find the exact same one again.
How We Select Our Thrifted Pieces
We look beyond the label when sourcing for Spice Scottsdale. A piece does not need to be designer or decades old to earn a place on The Spice Rack.
We consider the condition, construction, materials, silhouette, color, and styling potential of every item. We are especially drawn to pieces made from leather, suede, silk, denim, and other quality materials that can continue to be worn and loved. Most importantly, we choose items we would genuinely want to wear ourselves.
Our goal is to offer thrifted fashion that can be mixed into a modern wardrobe without feeling overly costume-like or difficult to style.
Vintage Designer Finds and Everyday Favorites
The Spice Rack is always changing. One drop may include a structured Coach handbag, rare Roberto Cavalli top, vintage Levi’s, and leather ballet flats. Another may feature romantic dresses, colorful heels, suede shoulder bags, or the perfect statement piece for a night out.
Some items come from recognizable designer labels, while others are selected simply because they are beautifully made, flattering, or completely unique.
Great style does not always depend on a famous label. Sometimes the best thrift find is the piece nobody else thought to look for.
Founder’s Keepers
Occasionally, we source something that is almost too good to sell.
Our Founder’s Keepers series highlights the clothing and accessories our founders were tempted to keep for themselves. These are the extra-special finds with unforgettable details, incredible quality, or enough styling potential to inspire an entire outfit.
Through Founder’s Keepers, we share why we selected each piece, what makes it special, and how we would style it, we post these on @shopthespicerack.
Why Shop Curated Secondhand Fashion?
Shopping thrifted and vintage clothing allows you to build a wardrobe that feels more personal. Instead of purchasing the same pieces available at every major retailer, you can discover items with history, character, and individuality.
Choosing secondhand can also extend the life of clothing and accessories that still have years of wear left. It is a more thoughtful way to shop while experimenting with different designers, decades, textures, and silhouettes.
At Spice Scottsdale, we believe the best piece is not always the newest one. It is the one you cannot stop thinking about after you leave the store.
Tips for Shopping Vintage Clothing
Vintage and secondhand sizing can vary significantly between brands and decades. We recommend shopping based on measurements and fit rather than focusing only on the size printed on the label.
When shopping for handbags, shoes, and accessories, consider the materials, hardware, lining, structure, and overall condition. Some vintage pieces may show gentle signs of previous wear, which can be part of their history and charm.
We carefully review our inventory and disclose noticeable wear so you can shop with confidence.
