i had the most exhausting day yesterday! went to 5 different places, ate b&j's and shopped ! stayed at this vintage store for about 2 hours and talked to a guy we met - Cheng. he sells authentic vintage goods, tons of jewelry from reknowned brands like versace from the 1990s and some other items dated back to 1940s. vintage ( but very very expensive ) doc martens, top quality limited edition ray bans, hats, suits and not to mention clutches. i saw one i particularly liked from 1950s also, wonderfully embroidered , $150, and i am determined to get it the next time i visit him. his small little talk inspired me, being an artist too, and starting a business when he was my age. he got me on my feet thinking about the beauty and meaning behind these items, and to appreciate more than i ever thought i could.

thanks cheng!
