Today I visited spacepop, a vintage store/design center on San Pablo Avenue in north Berkeley. I've been wanting to visit the store for several weeks. I had heard some great things about it and really liked their website. When I got there, I went to the place next door by mistake and found a fabulous vintage clothing store, Far and Few. I told them that I would be back. I went next door to spacepop and introduced myself to Raymond, who was at the front desk. He told me that spacepop was a collective as well as a place to exhibit art. Raymond gave me a tour and then left me on my own. I tried to capture a little bit of everything and think I was successful. I know you will enjoy the photographs.
I also spent time next door at Far and Few. The store is a hidden treasure, as one of the customers told me. It is crammed with dresses, skirts, jackets and tops. I saw a beautiful gold metal purse with shoes to match. I also tried on a vintage bowler hat that was only $20. It was definitely a temptation. Well, here are the photos of this fun trip. Toni
P.S.: Tomorrow I am going to the Alameda Antique Fair to find costumes. Hope you will check it out!
