The Bay Area exploded at the seams this past weekend relishing in the Mod Scene of Andy Warhol, starting with the Factory Party Friday night in the East Bay and then continuing to the De Young where Warhol Live turned the average museum trekker into a multi colored wonder, screen printed on canvas.
After leaving the exhibit, I decided two things. One: I’m growing my hair out like Nico and two: I want to go thrift store shopping, like NOW! With the lack of time and energy lately to devote to searching through Ebay or digging through racks and racks to find two amazing bargains, I decided to hunt online for sites devoted to vintage wear and accessories. After all, everything else is ‘2.0’, why not vintage?
Immediately in my search, I came across HookedonVintage.com and was drawn in by the great selections, like these oh so fun sunglasses and adorable prints straight from the 1920’s to the 1980’s. All items are handpicked by the owner, Lisa, and she did an amazing job finding rare, unusual and flash back pieces that would add that certain flair to a wardrobe all of us Girls in Tech would love to have.
Then I came across Tialet Vintage, complete with Twitter and Facebook, which is just amazing! It’s the perfect combo of meshing the past with the future, the aged clothes are displayed with a modern edge through modern technology. So fun to search through the new items they post on here, changing all the time, you never know what you’ll come across! Now I have to check my online bank acct… see what I can splurge on today!
