| - Hippie Gypsy is an island of its own amid the trendy American Apparels and Urban Outfitters of Mill Avenue. You already know what I'm talking about: rasta, incense, hemp, beads, Bob Marley, pipes, ironic bumper stickers, and lots of man jewelry. I thought things were a little pricey, but apparently they have a lot of hard to find incense so maybe it's worth it. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming even though we were clearly there just to look. Of course, we weren't the only ones. There were the requisite customers suffering from drug induced stupidity, ogling the bongs in the back. "Sweeeeeet." "Siiiiiiick."
While I will never need a bag woven from the palm fronds of Jamaica or an intricately crafted dragon shaped pipe, I can certainly appreciate that these things are available to the modern day hippies still living the dream. Stay strong!
