A Real Find!


Recently I have been interested in a friend's quest for wedding attire for her mother-of-the-groom gown and hat. The  wedding party and guests have been asked to wear Victorian vintage clothing, which requires some skillful shopping to find. I hadn't gone to the corner of Selby and Snelling Avenues for sometime, but I know that several vintage clothing shops are thriving there.  Much to my surprise the entire corner has been rejuvenated, and while I was going from store to store, having the time of my life, I discovered several little cobblestone passageways that are in the process of being refurbished.  While I'm waiting for the grand opening of the shop featuring Paris fashions (be still my heart) in a few more days, I'll post more photos from this delightful area.
