we spent yesterday afternoon doing some vintage shopping in boston - i found stuff at two great stores, one of which i had NEVER been to or heard of and can't believe i was missing out, and one which i knew of but did not realize was as great as it is.
i bought this dress at oona's, which was having a 50% off EVERYTHING sale! this dress was $17.50. i want to fall-ize it (like wear it with layers for fall), cardigan, tights, boots.
this little scarf i found at cafe society for $6, which i had never heard of or been to before yesterday. i used to live not too far from there at one point. shame. this scarf might become a pillow.
and this necklace is also from oona's, and $7.50! the chain is kind of short, so it hangs down from your collarbone, which is kind of nice, i usually buy pendants on longer chains. this is almost a choker but not (hello 90's!).
we also went to garment district where i found nothing. and now i'm off to saver's to find an old sweater to unravel and knit with...
Oh, I LOVE that yellow scarf, it would be perfect as a pillow!!

ReplyDeleteyou're welcome! good luck! both those places are a treasure... for secondhand i also like buffalo exchange in davis and the harvard square second time around. i'm going to the sowa vintage market on sunday - that is the best for home stuff.
