Thrift
Downtown Fullerton

Mustard Market

nonprofit thrift attached to a church, in downtown fullerton. they upcycle, refurbish furniture, hand-dye ceramics, and arrange clothing by color so the store actually looks like a store and not a pile. pricing is fair.

Curated
17th Street

Slow Goods

not technically thrift but on-brand. tiny costa mesa concept space mixing australian womenswear, california designers, handmade homewares, and bespoke accessories. opened 2023 by jessica ward. quiet, considered, opposite of a haul shop.

Vintage
DTSA

Mod Hepburn

small curated women's vintage on 3rd street in dtsa. fair pricing, friendly staff who know what they have, and a tight selection instead of racks for days. the good kind of small.
