This is a little Bavarian clothing store connected to the Platzl Hotel on Sparkassenstraße. This…read moreshop is amazing and has what I would assume to be very authentic and finely hand crafted Bavarian style clothing including mens lederhosen, belts, hats, shirts, vests and of course, those wonderful dirndls. Pretty much everything looks handmade. The nice woman working there has been there for years, is friendly and speaks pretty good English. After visiting this shop before but never buying anything, this year I finally got myself a nice Bavarian button down shirt which I love. I wanted to buy more but things are quote expensive here. If you are in the area, its worth a stop here.

This shop has amazing goods. We stopped here after much prior research since my sister is a…read moreseamstress and costume designer and wanted something very authentic (and was willing to pay for it). The store is smaller than many but packed with beautiful items. That is where the goodness ended for us. The two ladies working were rude and taciturn. They followed us closely, monitoring, watching like hawks. But did they inquire how they could help? Oh no. Not even when we expressed interest in knowing how the garments were laid out so we did not search through all of the racks. One grumbled when we asked to go up to the female section. Once there, the grumbling women physically stood in the way of a section, explaining that the items there were handmade and +$600. These were the ones that we were interested in based on our research; however, this woman just frowned and said that if we wanted to look, she would pull and handle the garment. It made it hard to look... especially since she was still in the way... We understand the delicacy of the materials and quality of construction. If you have a specific way that you want things handled, tell your customers... nicely. If we cannot see the section, we clearly won't be able to decide which garment to look at, and our unworthy fingers will never touch the dirndl to try on and buy. Feeling very unwelcome, we left empty handed and shelled out the cash at a worthier establishment.

My favorite second hand shop in Munich, mostly because it still follows the rules of a secondhand…read moreshop... its cheap. Sort of like most cheap second hand shops you have to dig, but they've done a lot of that for you, so leave the shovel at home and just bring a bit of patience. As far as selection, it can be a hit and miss, but I almost always walk out of there buying something great to add to my wardrobe, without having to think about how much I've spent. The old ladies who work there are classy, elderly, and dear to my heart. There are a couple more of these stores in Munich... don't be fooled, this one's the best.

Vintage Clothing shop:…read more I spotted this shop some months ago, so when one of my friends told me that they had a special event, with sales, I ran there straight away! This is a tiny but very cute shop where you can find a variety of chosen pieces for women. This shop covers different periods from the 20's to 70's designs, as well as some jewelery and beauty products. The shop is a good starting point, if you are looking for good quality and original pieces for special events, as the prices could be a bit high. In addition, you will have the advice of ChiChi Bouvet herself (she was absolutely lovely when we met her there!). Some of you might know her from the Munich based Burlesque group The "Filly Follies". My advice: Let ChiChi help you pick out something, if you are unsure. That woman has taste.

The shop owner is an absolutely lovely lady who is sweet and very enthusiastic about her business and her merchandise. You never know what you will find in this boutique. Ladies' shoes, scarves, handbags, jewelry, glasses, coats, and hats from designers such as Valentino, Prada, Gucci, Givenchy, Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Versace, and Hermes. The owner sells, buys, and trades. This shop offers a lot of fun, beautiful, and unique items.

There's a new Aldi in northwest Munich! It's a really good one too. Here's the deets:…read more 1) Easy to reach with the 63 Bus, this Aldi is in the lower level of the new "Forum" shopping centre at the north end of the Friendheimer Brücke. 2) There is a parking garage for those of you who drive. 3) The store is really large. While the selection is pretty standard for all Aldi locations, the fact that they have space means they are less likely to be out of whatever you need, as can often happen at smaller Aldi locations right before Ruhetage. 4) The large space also means that there are more "special" items for sale in the middle of the store, such as an extra large Easter candy display. Yum. 5) I might be seeing things through rose-tinted lenses, but I have the feeling that there are more organic items here than at other locations. For example, I saw organic whole grains - spelt, millet, barley - being sold here, which I haven't noticed anywhere else. 6) After getting the basics here, it's easy to round out the rest with either the Alnatura or the Rewe on the ground floor level.
