Helloooo Beautiful Ladies and Dapper Gents! Welcome to the Etsy store for Chick-A BOOM! Vintage. . . . named after Carmen Miranda's, "One Night in Rio". We just fell in LOVE with how diverse, extravagant and utterly STUNNING Carmen's garments and costumes were and we feel it's our duty to help each individual out there find beautiful vintage garment's to suit THEIR own personal flares of style.


Chick-A BOOM! Vintage is located in the heart of downtown Petaluma, CA, just 45 minutes north of San Francisco. Please visit us at 7 Western Avenue! Our goal is to bring you the absolute very BEST in vintage clothing for ladies and gentlemen of all shapes and sizes. We present to you MODERN DAY WEARABLE SIZES from a 2-26 and are known around the Bay Area as carrying a lovely selection of women's dresses and gowns for the curvaceous, knock-'em-dead, confident woman! We strive to bring you hand-picked, superior, high-quality, UNIQUE vintage items for you to enjoy and wear. We carry garments from as early as the 1800's all the way to wild and rockin' 1980's, but we specialize in 1940's to early 1960's clothing for men and women with discerning tastes and fashions. After all, we are so close to a major mecca of fashion. . . . .SAN FRANCISCO and the surrounding bays!


All of our amazing inventory is hand-selected for quality, uniqueness, colors, patterns, prints, durability & beauty by none other than the sole Proprietress of Chick-A BOOM! Vintage herself! She comes from a long line of fashionable blood as her grandmother was a high-end seamstress for I. Magnin in the 1940's and her mother a Vogue hand model in the 1960s. Surrounded by fashion and vintage clothing since she was born, this feisty, intelligent, young lady sure knows how to pick a delectable outfit! Chick-A BOOM!

Chick-A BOOM! Vintage says, "Let us add the BANG! to your vintage wardrobe!" We strive to bring you the HIGHEST QUALITY, PERFECTLY CURATED, HAND-SELECTED vintage garments here on the ol' Etsy! After all, Vintage clothing is made to INSPIRE. It's made to LAST. It's made to WEAR, so let us fix you up right!
Returns and exchanges
We do NOT refund clients or allow returns, but have a light heart! Our items are hand-selected for their quality and uniqueness and we are VERY thorough in listing measurements and any flaws the garment may have. We do NOT return for the garment not fitting properly. We take extra care and pride in supplying ACCURATE measurements, so we simply will not take returns or offer refunds for a garment not fitting. We are not a rental or costume shop, so returns are never accepted once the garment has been purchased. We encourage you to ask lots of questions and we are happy to double check measurements at any time for you before purchase. These are antique items that have some patina or character and you are purchasing these pieces for their rareness and high quality. We do not rent our items, so we do not do returns once the item is purchased and shipped and tracking supplied. It is very important to know your measurements and compare them to those that we have provided. You can be rest assured that we have NEVER in 4 years, EVER had a complaint about our measurements. We are very thorough and want you to be happy with your purchase, so we know you will understand our policies on returns and refunds.
Payment
PAYMENT MUST BE RECEIVED WITHIN 24 HOURS OF PURCHASE and we gladly accept PAYPAL. We also accept credit cards and Etsy gift certificates! We reserve the right to sell the garment to the next interested party if payment is not received.

We here at Chick-A BOOM! Vintage hope that you love your vintage item(s) as much as we do. We are meticulous with our descriptions and measuring, so we do not accept returns do to the item not fitting you properly. We also do not allow rentals, so we do not ever do returns once the item has been paid for and the garment worn. PLEASE make sure you ask any and ALL questions before purchasing your vintage item. We do a very thorough job of reporting any character flaw of the vintage garments we list. Please compare all measurements to a garment that fits you well, including shoes, as we do NOT GIVE REFUNDS or ALLOW RETURNS. The measurements are of the GARMENT, not YOU. We ship ONLY by using the United States Postal Service and all packages will be shipped with a tracking number to ensure safe arrival. This is the SAFEST way to ship and while the cost may be a bit higher, it protects both the buyer and seller. It is also the quickest way to get you your beautiful garments. Thanks for understanding!

RESERVES & LAYAWAY-
Our prices are for extremely high quality, wearable garments. We hand-select each piece for uniqueness, design, quality, rareness and overall fabulousness. In saying that, we have a wonderful clientele who appreciate what we provide for them and often have people requesting the same garment for reserve and layaway. To be fair to our ever-growing and wonderful clients, we offer a first-come, first-serve reserve and layaway program that requires the following:
1. If you request the reserve, you absolutely MUST be 100% sure that you will be purchasing the item. We will reserve the item for 3 days maximum.
2. After 3 days on reserve, the garment must ether be paid for in full OR a layaway must be discussed and put into motion. If neither has happened, the garment will be taken off of reserve and sold to the next interested party. You will lose your right to reserve that item again.
3. Layaway will be granted for all items over $150.
4. If layaway is discussed and granted, 1/3 of the total of the garment and shipping must be paid for immediately. That amount is NON-REFUNDABLE. You will then have 15 days to complete the payment. If the payment is not received within 15 days from the initial first payment, the garment will be resold and the seller will keep the non-refundable 1st down-payment.
Shipping
We will ship out your item(s) as close to your paying date as possible (normally the same day), but we reserve the right of 3 business days to get your order ready and packaged for shipment. All items will be sent through the United States Postal Service and will be sent by Priority Mail Shipping. All items will come with tracking to ensure safe arrival of your beautiful garment(s). We ONLY ship this way so that both the seller and buyer are protected. Insurance can always be added, but it will cost more and will be the buyer's responsibility to pay for it.
Additional policies and FAQs
Thanks SO MUCH for looking at all of our treasured items. We know that you will LOVE all of the purchases that you make from Chick-A BOOM! Vintage. Our goal is to have happy clients dressed to the nines in garments hand-selected and perfectly curated just for YOU! Go ahead, TREAT YOURSELF, because you are ALWAYS worth it! Thanks for looking!
