Vintage Garage

There's more vintage-y goodness coming to Chicago this Sunday at the Vintage Garage!  With almost 100 vendors there's bound to be something for everyone. I love vintage markets because you can find unique pieces that won't break the bank.

My tips for shopping the Vintage Garage:
1. Bring cash (some vendors do accept credit but cash is easier to bargain with)
2. Know your measurements.  Vintage clothing sizes are different than modern day clothes and you don't always have the opportunity to try on your finds.
3. Wear comfy shoes. Since you'll be doing a fair amount of walking, you don't want painful feet to distract you from you bargain hunting.
4. Wear clothes that you can easily slip things over (unless you don't mind disrobing in front of strangers)
5. Get there early before all the good stuff is gone!
