The Red Shelf

I came across a The Red Shelf post on Instagram explore feed and they mentioned that they said had a branch in Swakopmund, and it instantaneously went on my list. It wasn’t hard to find as it is located at Bonus Marktplatz. The Red Shelf sells once favored items that are now looking for new homes and I love it.

The first time I went there, there was a sign that said that they are a Trendhaus and I was bummed to have missed them. However, I went there for the second time and found them open. I was warmly welcomed, and it was all smiles from there.

The Red Self, in my opinion, is a thrift shop on steroids. They have all the vintage clothes your great-grandparents would’ve worn and brooches your grandma would love. There is a twist though, these jewerlly pieces and clothes are not for your grandparents, they are for you!

I love how the colour codes their clothes. If you are looking for something beige or brown, you go to that shelf and if you are looking for something red, you go to The Red Shelf. The scarves you find on the first floor and items for cheaper prices. They also have earrings, bracelets, necklaces, and cool shades.

For the book worms and people who read, I can tell you that there are books there just waiting for new owners. There are books in English and German, fiction and non-fiction, and series. I don’t know if the people that read this blog are Potter Heads, but I’d like to state that they have Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone.

Do make a turn at The Red Shelf if you ever find yourself wandering near the Bonus Marktplatz. I promise that you will enjoy it.
