| - I have been wanting to go to Deering Vintage for quite a while. The last weekend I had off was evidently the weekend she moved, so I had to wait. But oh, it was worth it.
The space is very open and easy to shop. I've been to my fair share of vintage boutiques, and they all seem to be varying degrees of cluttered. Not here, though. Everything is laid out & separated in ways that make sense. I love the "Beauty Salon" wall with all the old mirrors. She's got two sparkly jewelry cases, dressing rooms for trying on your fabulous find, and several racks of clothing separated by style. Oh, and she now has an in-house seamstress, in case you need some alterations on your one-of-a-kind vintage garment. Such a great idea, I don't know why more vintage places don't do this.
I managed to contain myself, and only bought two items: a spotless red canvas handbag & an old compact mirror. Of the good things about this place, the best is probably the owner, Cindy. She is really the sweetest person ever, and you can tell she loves what she does. She's incredibly knowledgeable and if she doesn't have what you're looking for, she'll try to find it. I hope she keeps this store open for a while, because I can't wait to go back!
