hong kong vintage…

i’ve decided to start a new, fun little blog category called sunday funday. each time i’ll fill you in on things that i like to do for fun. mostly around town but we’ll just see where it goes.

first up, one of my all time favorite places: hong kong vintage. nestled snugly in a row of shops right on central avenue, it’s where i find most of my vintage dresses. {i have so many in my collection that they deserve their own blog post later…} it’s quaint, has that wonderful “basement” smell and is full to the brim of good finds. elizabeth owns the place and she’s great. she began as a stylist and selling consignment but then started her own business. if you’re familiar with this spot, then you might know it used to be a little farther down central ave. but she’s upgraded to a new much larger spot with 2 dressing rooms and more space for the goods! i love that everything is organized in a r.o.y.g.b.i.v. kinda way. the sweaters are folded neatly into little cubbies and the little nook of handbags and suitcases always grabs my attention. rows and rows of vintage shoes and boots line the floors. there’s furniture, and lots of homey trinkets too. need a fun ashtray for a friend or a vintage fondue kit? now you konw where to look. don’t worry guys and kiddies… there is plenty for you too. tiny baby rompers, and a great collection of mens coats… you most likely won’t leave empty handed. be sure to check it out and tell elizabeth the looking glass says hi. hey, you might even run into me there! let me know what you find!? be curious! hg
