Not Just Antiques

I absolutely love this place. I’ve been going here to find interesting clothes for years now, and the new location is more spacious and bright than the previous, basement-​level one across the street was. Owner Jül really knows what she’s doing. The place has a beautifully curated, boutique feel, but it’s friendly and affordable. If you come in looking for something to wear for a specific occasion they will help you until you’ve found something you love, but don’t feel shy about going in just to poke around — no one ever pressures you to buy or try things on. Last week I got a beautiful, comfortable little Joni Blair dress there for only 28 bucks. Can’t beat it! I buy almost all my clothing secondhand, usually for very cheap in thrift stores, and when I want something good quality or more special in some way I go here because it’s still affordable. They carry handbags, jewelry, and kitchen and household things as well. To me this is the perfect kind of secondhand shop because everything has obviously been chosen with care but it’s not fussy or overpriced. A neighborhood gem!
