We love Brooklyn Boutiques
I've gotta admit, I love Greenpoint, Brooklyn Heights and Cobble Hill. Most especially unique about these New York neighborhoods is the quality of the shopping that exists on these streets. Finding myself lost on a recent bike ride, the quaint blocks looked more like movie scenes circa 1930's Al Capon era. And, throughout the shops, the pace was the same. None of that frenetic tawdry existence that has become common amongst some boutiques post Sex in the city of Manhattan, but as a true Manhattan-nite, I think its fair to share some of the best from both sides of the east river.
Two weeks ago, crossing the Brooklyn bridge, I discovered Old Hollywood boutique in Greenpoint. You might think its full of typical sexy draped dresses though on the contrary, it is peeking trends. They cater to hipsters with an edge by deciding to move away from the obvious, finding a unique design that follow their individual style instead. This store makes friends out of customers from both men and women. My guess that their youngish shoppers keep inspiring the stores buyers with stylish wears. If you take the B66 towards downtown Brooklyn, you end up in with your heart pumping because of all the excitement from the thousands of pedestrians. After crossing towards Smith streets, you will find Lucia which takes on a bohemian sweetness ( which no doubt is specifically geared towards their clientele ). The block itself makes a wonderful excursion with cafes, bars and other fun stores in Cobble Hill like by Brooklyn opened nearly a year, and they are quickly casting a huge influence with editorials talk of their quality and design property. Meanwhile back at the ranch, a fun store I already shared was Aloha Rag in Tribeca. I love love love the manager Jeff, and of course the buyers do an amazing job catering to the women in search of luxury.
