A very busy Honey Moon is opening another 1 Of A Find vintage clothing boutique, at 633 Vanderbilt Avenue, Prospect Heights, Brooklyn, NY. She opened her first in the Park Slope neighborhood of Brooklyn in the spring of 2008.
She and her family moved to New York City from California, where she had been running her own vintage clothing store for both men and women, in 2007.
Honey -- her real name -- said:
“My boutique is small and personal. I like to know my customers. Sometimes they poke their heads in to shop and chat, other times they request special items for special events. I am on a first-name basis with many customers, who quickly become regulars. Our store is small, a real boutique."
"My mother is still my West Coast buyer. She and I hand pick each piece in the store to maintain cohesion and avoid chaos. I know that a choice vintage piece is priceless, but I want everyone to afford this luxury. I price pieces to move. I also work the store and don’t want to stare at the same piece for weeks on a hanger, however beautiful it is. I want to see it on someone. I want it to go home with someone who loves it and will give it another life.”
Store hours: Monday, Tuesday, Friday, & Saturday noon to 8 pm, Sunday noon to 5 pm.
