Place rating: 4 Shoreditch, London, United Kingdom
It’s an undeniable fact that not all Oxfam’s are created equal. And this one is arguably top of the heap. It is also a fact that charity shops in salubrious areas generally turn up the best finds, and Oxfam Kensington High Street goes a long way to proving this supposition. Vintage seventies Balenciaga sunglasses for £20, second hand Dior and Yves Saint Laurent pieces and some great premium high street clothes, I’ve found them all here. This is one of my favourite Oxfams in the capital, a place where charity shops are generally so popular and talked about that by the time you get there all that’s left is the Dotty P. Go and go regularly. You never know what you might find.
