If you’re stylish and like sustainability, get yourself to Artists & Fleas in Williamsburg today for the debut of Sammy Davis Vintage.
Sammy’s a friend of mine who uses her weekends to scour thrift stores and pick the best of the best from the ’60s through the ’90s. She’s gathering her top choices at her booth today from noon to 8 p.m. at 129 N. 6th St. in Brooklyn. And knowing Sammy, if you’re at a complete loss as far as how to wear vintage (like I am), she’ll help you coordinate a cute outfit.
Best of all, the prices aren’t ridiculous. Remember when I went to Brooklyn Flea a few months ago? All the booths had cool stuff, but everything was kind of expensive, which to me defeats the purpose of buying vintage. Why buy something used if you can get something brand new for less? (Sorry, I’m not the most sustainable-minded person.) But Sammy knows that vintage items should be a good deal: She calls herself the “H&M of vintage.”
Let me know if you go and if Sammy hooks you up with a new outfit!

This weekend was so much fun at Artists & Fleas! I’ll be back next Saturday from noon to 8PM. Stop by and say hello – we have lots of different vendors, from jewelry to hats to homemade designs to vintage Gucci & Prada bags!
But I still remain the H&M of vintage
