The beauty of Chairish is that no matter where in the U.S. you live, vintage gems are never more than a click away. But, as vintage devotees ourselves, we totally get the thrill of the IRL hunt. To find out the best hunting grounds from coast to coast, we asked a handful of top tastemakers from around the country to share their favorite off-line flea markets and vintage haunts.
