We have new arrivals from another Barcelona-based clothing line called Smash at Angel Vancouver this week: T-shirts, tunic tops and dresses that feature bold bursts of colour and design.

Angel Vancouver also has the largest selection in Vancouver of the Bacelona-based Desigual clothing line for men, women and kids. We recently received a new Desigual shipment that included a number of fall coats and sweaters for women, plus Desigual shoes, boots and some colourful rain boots.
As well, Angel specializes in custom hand-painted shirts. I’m taking the last orders for Christmas. Locally made, painted by hand. You won’t find these shirts anywhere else in the world, except Angel Vancouver. We ship worldwide. Call (604) 681-0947 or email jackie@angelpaint.com
Angel Vancouver is located at No. 2 Powell Street in the Gastown district of Vancouver, Canada. Our store is on the corner of Powell & Carrall Street in Maple Tree Square, which is where Vancouver began. The photo above shows what my store looked like in 1886.
Desigual’s slogan is La Vida es Chula (Life is Cool)!

Here’s a teenaged Jimmy Page in his first BBC appearance in 1957, playing in a skiffle band (that’s Jimmy on the far left):
