A few weeks ago, I queried my friends and acquaintances on Facebook. I wanted to know if I rented a booth in an antique store if they would be more likely to shop from me than buy online. They response was that they would. They wanted to see the clothes in person. While they're always welcome to stop by my home, I don't know if they always feel comfortable doing so alone. A few days after that, I received an email asking if I had ever considered doing a trunk show or party with a select group of people who could peruse the vintage goods. While I'm not ready to bring my selections out of the house, because that involves a lot of foresight in terms of display, I am ready to host my first ever pop up shop from my gorgeous front porch.
On September 24th and 25th, everyone is invited to shop Vint Condition in person. There will be a select collection of dresses, skirts, and accessories that I've been hoarding just for a moment like this. I'll also have light refreshments available. I would love for people to come and hang out rather than shop and rush off.
I wanted to do this specifically for the ladies of northern New York. We don't have a vintage clothing store in the area, and in fact I travel far and wide to round up the vintage I do have. If this is a success, we'll keep doing it. So if you're local, help out and spread the word. The event is here on facebook, so share the event with your friends, post it on your own wall, and come join me in September for what should be a lovely time!
