The flea gods were on our side today as the torrential downpour came at 5:30pm just as the flea vendors were closing for the day. As I packed my last bag the rain came and hence I remained stranded underneath my tent for the next half hour until I could make a dash for home. Prior to that the day was magnificent at the tents as tons of fun customers came pouring into the flea. For those of you who visited the tent today and did not see me I had to dash away briefly to be photographed for an exciting art project curated by one of my dearest friends. In the mean time my friend Winnie worked the tent for me as I returned to find her spinning in a booth full of customers. Thanks to all you guys for supporting the store and I hope that your fun finds make you smile all week long. Today was about fun things like an all over heart-printed red & white short set, floral MC Hammer pants, and floaty dresses.

As usual there were tons cute trendsters with their effortless glamour beams turned up to high. High-waisted everything, more half done corn-rows, big roman style braids, oversized leather sacs, and boots, boots, boots. Military princess' knocking about with a boy that looks this guy on her arm.

No one wants to be caught dead in a military jacket (out of fear of being too literal) but the tall leather boots, the metal hardware, and pre-war boyfriends are commitment enough to hint to the military inspiration....funny, but I totally dig it. Anyway in other news Samantha Brown from the travel channel stopped by the booth today and did an extensive photo shoot for a segment of Passport to a Great Weekend. I am not sure when the Brooklyn or NYC episode of the show airs but lets hope that we make the cut.
