Slowdown Store in Rotterdam West is my favorite spot for second-hand clothing. This small but perfectly curated shop is a treasure trove where you can’t leave empty-handed. Every item is handpicked by the owner, Willemijn, ensuring the collection is modern, stylish, and far from anything old and dusty.
Willemijn also sells her own handbag collection, and I can’t resist those beautiful designs. Alongside the second-hand pieces, you’ll find a line of new clothing, accessories, and jewelry that adds even more variety to the store.
Willemijn has a genuine passion for helping you find just the right item. She’s the kind of shop owner who takes the time to get to know your style and preferences. In fact, I even discovered my signature perfume here, it was the scent Willemijn was wearing when I first walked in.
