Chic in Brooklyn: DARR

After our recent visit to the Brooklyn Museum, Tommy Smythe and I decided to do a little shopping.  One of the first places we stopped was DARR on Atlantic Avenue.  I love visiting places where you never know what you might find and DARR is filled with vintage treasures and new pieces that look old.  It also smells amazing thanks to the owner's own concoction of essential oils. Make sure you stop by on your next visit to Brooklyn.

Chic in NY: The Upper Rust

The thing I miss out on because I live in New York are small antique shops with reasonably priced treasures waiting to be unearthed.  That's why I was so excited to find The Upper Rust.  It's the kind of store I would expect to find upstate or out east.  Filled with transferware, china, frames, mirrors, objects, oddities, and more, makes it definitely worth a visit.  Just make sure you get there before the team from a certain chic retailer buys up all the good stuff!
