Am I Too Old To Shop At Wasteland?

I feel like I need to come to grips with the fact that I’m slowly edging towards the northern limit of every magazine’s target demographic (true story), and that I don’t need to wear subtly transparent tops and mini-skirts. But I can still look, right? If I were 10 years younger, I’d be all over Wasteland (and yes, there are still definitely things I’m all over). Not only is it one of my favorite L.A. vintage emporiums, but it has a giant e-commerce site that’s full of new stuff, too. And new stuff that barely breaks the $50 mark. Maybe its because vintage requires extra measurements and all, but they get major snaps for including plenty of sizing information (like what the model is wearing). Here’s what I’m eye-balling that’s new:
