Hello lovely people!
I'm really sorry about the gigantic orange date in the bottom of the photos. I'm working on it.
I'm reviewing one of my favourite vintage places today! Its possibly one of the cutest café/ boutiques on the planet what with its multi-coloured bunting that runs right round the store and its many slightly odd but adorable house furnishings. It really is one of my favourite places.
First impressions:
Outside you can only tell that it is a café, when inside only a small percentage is actually that. In fact, a huge amount of the store is just random stuff piled in corners that you root through.
But at the very front of the store you immediately see rows upon rows of vintage clothing, homewares and random other stuff. It all sort of blurs into a cath kidson coloured blanket.
Clothes
A lot of the clothes is stuff people would never wear in a million years- but that's sort of the point of vintage wear, you have to sort through a lot of rubbish to find the good stuff. Saying that, that is a lot of nice dresses, scarves, sunglasses and jewellery to find if you look hard enough.
Service
Hopkinson is actually a few boutiques arranged onto 3 floors and I talked to each of the shop owners individually. They all were good helpful people and let me look through their things in peace. They seemed to understand how important it is to let the customer look around themselves and not get pestered constantly whether they needed any help or were they looking for anything?
See ya soon guys
