Another one of my favorite areas to vintage shop in NYC is Williamsburg and Greenpoint in Brooklyn. I spent this past Monday, a cloudy Memorial Day, vintage shopping in this area, so I decided to make another little shopping guide to my favorite stores in these neighborhoods. Williamsburg is just a short subway ride from Manhattan (one stop on the L train) and you can easily walk to Greenpoint from Williamsburg. Arbor Vitae 309 Bedford Avenue Open 11am-8pm daily Come Here For: •women's clothing •men's clothing Arbor Vitae is an extremely reasonably priced vintage store. They even have $5 racks out front, where I've scored one of my favorite skirts from. Junk 567 Driggs Ave Open 9am-9pm daily Come Here For: records, books, glassware, antiques, furniture, vintage photos & more! The name says it all. This giant warehouse has everything from little vintage knick knacks to furniture. It's definitely a lot to dig through, but you can definitely unearth some hidden gems here. Fox & Fawn 570 Manhattan Ave Open 12-7:30pm daily Come Here For: •women's clothing •men's clothing This store is mostly women's clothes, but they have a small men's section as well. The prices are very reasonable and I've scored several of my favorite vintage finds here! Beacon's Closet 74 Guernsey St Open 11am-8pm daily Come Here For: •women's clothing •men's clothing Beacon's Closet has several locations here in NYC, and to be honest, I'm not always a fan. Some of their other locations I find to be overcrowded and overpriced for the quality and brands they are selling. However, I like this location because it is very spacious and it is the location where I've seen the largest vintage selection. 10 ft by Stella Dallas 285 N 6th Street Open 12-7:30pm daily Come Here For: •women's clothing •men's clothing Prepare for sensory overload. This store is huge and has a ton of great product. The front of the store is more modern (80's and 90's) and a bit more affordable. The back is older vintage (50's, 60's, 70's) and a tad more expensive. However, all of the product here is extremely well curated and high quality!
