Las Vegas Mixtape v29: Rocking Burlesque, Doughnut Pleasures, and Boho Surprises — Track #3: Boho Village @Charleston Heights

Track #3: Boho Village @Charleston Heights

There’s nothing like wandering around the Charleston Antique Mall on Decatur Blvd. You can easily kill a few hours at this vintage mecca, with 75 dealers in the 18,000-square-foot space. If you’re a collector who just can’t get enough, step into Boho Village right next door. Shopping here is like enjoying an appetizer or dessert alongside the Charleston main course experience.

There are 25-plus vendors occupying the 2,200 square feet inside the shop, opened in late 2022 by former NoCal resident and proud bohemian Loretta Langer. Skewed to younger customers, the anything-goes merchandise includes vinyl albums, horror film memorabilia, vintage board games, rock and roll T-shirts, spirit catchers, original paintings by local artists, antique figurines, and funky clothing. I spotted a show-stopping maroon fake fur vest—a steal at $20—that was calling out for the ghost of Janis Joplin to buy it.

If nothing here rings your bell, you can always purchase a “mystery bag” in the store’s general area for only five dollars. Loretta says they’re filled with anything from old Christmas tree ornaments to trinkets that didn’t sell after sitting on the shelves for too long. It’s up to you to rescue them from oblivion.
