The Shop

Fiery Finish Vintage is a shop for folks who aren't afraid to stand out in a crowd! My goal is to always have it jam packed with bright colors and fun prints that reflect my own love of vibrant, eye-catching fashion.

I've been selling on Etsy since I launched my business in 2012, and have sold over 600 pieces to happy buyers, resulting in a 5 star rating. I hope you find as much enjoyment in wearing these unique pieces as I found in hunting for them!

 

My Story

I grew up in Cincinnati, OH and started to become interested in vintage clothing when I was in high school. Remember the Beatles Anthology mini-series? That was my gateway drug. I became obsessed with the Beatles, 60s music, and 60s style in general. I couldn't get to the thrift store fast enough!

Once I discovered the world of thrift stores and vintage shops, I was hooked. As I moved from Cincinnati to Brooklyn, my style evolved, but there was always one common thread. Most of what I wore was either vintage or second hand. I started to realize that beyond the obvious perk of not wearing the exact same outfit as everyone else, I was protesting the 'fast fashion' that was becoming more and more prevalent everywhere. Not only was I saving money, but I was helping the environment by wearing recycled clothes. That's something that I believe strongly in to this day.

I now live in the beautiful, (almost) always sunny city of Los Angeles, where I first saw my vision for an online vintage clothing shop take off and become a reality. I thought I'd be a Brooklynite forever, but I have to admit that SoCal won me over. The mountains, the ocean, the desert...what's not to love? Although I chose the name Fiery Finish long before I moved here, I can't help but see it as a reflection of my current surroundings.
