Ch Ch Changes....
Mmm
And my time was runnin' wild
A million dead end streets and
Every time I thought I'd got it made
It seemed the taste was not so sweet
So I turned myself to face me
But I've never caught a glimpse
How the others must see the faker
I'm much too fast to take that test
Turn and face the strange
Ch-ch-changes
Don't want to be a richer man
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
Turn and face the strange
Ch-ch-changes
There's gonna have to be a different man
Time may change me
But I can't trace time
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence
And so the days float through my eyes
But still the days seem the same
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change…
business social media as a political platform
Sustainability And Fashion
"If I had to make one prediction for 2020 and the years to follow, it would be that we’ll see more closed-loop companies like Thousand Fell and the Big Favorite (and more designers linking up with Evrnu). A more sustainable fashion industry depends on using what exists, eliminating the problem of clothing in landfills, and reframing the way we value our garments. It seems entirely feasible to me that one day, all of my “high frequency” items—for me, that’s T-shirts, cashmere sweaters, camisoles, flat sandals, leather boots, and jeans—will exist on a closed loop. When they’re worn out, I’ll send them to be recycled or upcycled, with nothing wasted in the process. Everything else in my closet would be an item I really love, something I’ve purchased with the intention of keeping for a long time, be it a classic blazer or vivid floral skirt. Longevity means different things to different people, and even if I fall out of love with something, it will be high-quality enough to resell on the RealReal or Vestiaire Collective. Again, nothing wasted"

Mixing Modern And Vintage
Mixing modern clothing, shoes, jewelry and accessories with vintage is a fun way to be stylish while wearing items that are one of kind that can make a statement. I feel that most modern clothing has some inspiration of vintage styles ranging from 1920's-2010's.
Pair a modern pant and top with a vintage jacket Vintage Dress with a modern moto jacket
Vintage shoes with modern jeans
Modern jeans with a vintage t-shirt etc. etc.....
Not only is mixing modern and vintage a unique and special look it brings in the element of shopping eco friendly and used. Moving toward sustainability in purchasing modern brands isn't easy and can be expensive but mixed with affordable used/vintage pieces makes it easier on the wallet.
In store and online we offer a nice variety of our curated collection of new merchandise and vintage. Vintage is for EVERYBODY.
