::brooklyn::
the first time i have ever, ever found glasses small enough for my face.
the woman wanted $40 for that sweater. doesn't that seem a little preposterous?
but actually, i did buy that for huck
my mom bought this. (and i helped her eat it)
::hell's kitchen::
basically i could have my way with any single item in this display (i tried to haggle the peach coffee table down to $25. the dude pretty much laughed in my face.)
this nice gentleman was buying an antique record player.
this guy . . . well, who knows.
and then i almost but didn't buy this sweater!
c'est la vie.
Look at the hucklebaby pudge. Delicious!!
ReplyDeleteLove Brooklyn Flea. Did you get an Asia Dog? I have dreams about their spicy ketchup/potato chips dog. SO GOOD. I got my headboard (it's an indonesian wood carving thingy that I decided works as a headboards), two necklaces, and two pieces of art at Brooklyn Flea.
Love those glasses on your face. Love your blog. Love your baby. and that imaginary sweater looks really great on you. end scene.
ReplyDeleteYou're wearing stripes? That's ridiculous?
ReplyDeletethose glasses look so good on you! and seriously? you are SO tiny. three cheers for breastfeeding!
ReplyDeleteoh, I love flea markets! Imaginary shopping is sometimes the best, mostly because you can imagine all those things and how fun they'd be to own but then a few hours later you've forgotten them and moved on. plus browsing is always nice, I think.
ReplyDeleteAw, I love how you and Huck are all twinsy in your stripes!
ReplyDeleteWhere do you pick up your cute style? Must. Find. Flea. Market.
ReplyDeleteAhhh a good flea market can do wonders for your soul. So I've heard. I've never actually been. But I have to tell you I had the funniest dream last night and you were in it. Not to creep you out or anything (I know, a lot of people say that to you). It was funny. You'd have to come over for hot chocolate and ice cream so that I could tell you about it, let me know when you're headed over :)
ReplyDeletei love the hells kitchen flea. can't wait to try out the brooklyn one. next time, next time.
ReplyDeleteI love those glasses on you. And would you believe that I've only been to the hell's kitchen flea market once? I live two blocks away! I need to fix that ASAP.
ReplyDeleteNorth Meets South
I love flea markets in NYC!
ReplyDeleteYou looking thin and beautiful in clothes makes me hopeful about having my own fat and beautiful baby. one day...
I wish I lived somewhere with awesome flea markets. We are going to one this weekend...it's usually semi interesting...
ReplyDeleteLOVE LOVE LOVE that purple chair at the hell's kitchen flea market.
wow everything in these pictures is AMAZING! I want it all!
ReplyDeleteoooh yeah, I'm digging the Hell's Kitchen flea market! Especially all those metal letters (for printing, I assume?). I would be all over those.
ReplyDeleteI'm DROOLING! I {heart} flea markets! And that one...looked amazing! I think you should have bought the sweater! It's adorable! =)
ReplyDelete1. That rooster bag is ADORABLE!
ReplyDelete2. Those glasses look sooooo cute on you :)
3. What a sweet toy Huck scored!
I wish we had awesome flea markets like these a bit closer. The ones that are close to me are super tiny and not so magical.
This looks awesome! I have lived in brooklyn for almost 5 YEARS and have never gone! *winces* I know what we're doin this weekend...
ReplyDeleteI LOVE old printing press letters! They make adorable wall art when you glue them together and make fun words.
ReplyDeleteI love flea markets and I haven't been to one in years! I love second hand stuff...people get rid of so much good stuff.
ReplyDeleteAww I was in Brooklyn visiting my sister and we strolled to the flea too! If only I would have seen you there. Would have made my trip.
ReplyDeleteOh I LOVE the NYC flea markets. I went to the hell's kitchen one last April and found myself the COOLEST bug pendant and big baubly ring. I definitely plan on heading back soon!!!
ReplyDeleteWOW! So much fabulous old stuff! I love the printing press letters! I wish our flea market sold those ...
ReplyDeleteI'm absolutely SALIVATING over those cases of old metal type!!! The English major in me would have spent her life savings on a case or two. As would the designer. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteThose glasses? ALMOST AS ADORABLE AS HUCK.
ReplyDeleteI could totally drive 15 minutes and get you one of those Longhorn sweatshirts. It may still cost $40 because licensed stuff is ridiculous, but at least it won't smell like mothballs. I'm guessing by the weird seams that the one in the pic is kinda old. Yes no?
ReplyDeleteOh my. I am envious of the flea marketing available in your local area. I must find one in
ReplyDeleteSydney soon.
TREASURE HUNTING!!! I SO LOVE FLEA MARKETS!!
ReplyDelete1. Those glass bottles, I want to hug them and squeeze them and call them George.
2. Seriously? The dead animals?
3. Oooh, all the wooden boxes!
4. The glasses = adorable on you. :-)
5. Did you know you're in the peach table pic?
6. Oh I wish that nice gentlemen would buy an antique record player for me. I have nothing on which to play my one and only record, and that makes me very sad.
7. Yeah, dude shaking hands with (?) is a bit freaky, but the (?) is even freakier to me.
8. But you NEED that purple mirror so you can avoid the bank of elevators!
oh i am laughing at these captions....i'd probably spend every dollar i've ever saved at this place. and hey - texas fans will pay a lot for crap like that. i'm from oklahoma and trust me....i've experienced my fair share of longhorns.
