Today is my second weekday at our lovely new store, and I really want to thank everyone who helped me along the way. From painting to donating clothes to just coming in, you have all made this possible for me. For as long as I can remember this has been my dream, so from the bottom of my heart, thank you.

The response from the Northside neighborhood in general has just been so overwhelmingly friendly and supportive. One of the residents from the upstairs apartments even donated a box of beautiful vintage cameras! Thanks Erin!!

And here’s our little store!!

I don’t want to completely bog down this post with pictures, but that doesn’t even show half of the store, as well as our back room that you can barely see. And we definitely have MEN’S clothes too!

Here’s a little outfit I wore to the library a few days ago, and I finally took advantage of my lovely surroundings…

This was originally a floor-length old lady skirt with a giant bunny patch on it, but I salvaged it for the cute yoke and POCKETS. One of my best saves.

WHAT: diy button earrings, homemade

fall leaves scarf, thrift

mustard yellow t-shirt, rainbow

full summery skirt, thrift

bakelite rose bracelet, my gramma

burgundy lace knee socks, chicken lays an egg

WHERE: library job and hanging out with my brother
