It’s New to You!

You’ve been longing for months to wear that pair of bright yellow Versace jeans you rocked the first day of junior high school, wondering if it’s too soon to reinsert them into your rotation of fly gear. Heads up: The rule is that if the clothes were made anywhere between the 1920s and the 1970s, it’s considered vintage and therefore cool again. So those V jeans need a few more years before they lose the title of just plain old. Lucky for you, day two of the Miami Vintage Clothing & Accessories Show and Sale is today, so you can breeze by the Woman’s Club of Coconut Grove (2985 S. Bayshore Dr., Coconut Grove) for something chic and classic.

The show was created as an answer to the lack of vintage clothing dealers in the area. The collection of pieces that are both well-made and utterly authentic will satisfy even the most picky of shoppers. The spree takes place today from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. and will set you back only five bucks.
Sun., March 30, 11 a.m.-6 p.m., 2008
