This New Thrift Store is Such a Find
Shopping small and shopping localis always good.When it involves recycled retail, even better. That said, not everyone has the thrifting gene, especially in this current world of point and click shopping. This is what makes Olijohn, the newest thrift store in Hoboken, so perfect.
What some of us do not know how to do, this shop does so well. Curate. Edit. Group items together logically. There is no pouring through racks of musty vintage prom dresses next to acrylic sweaters from the 80s to find the gems. Everything here is so fetching for real life, everyday wear. Of course, some items are over the top glamorous and fabulous, such as the one-piece vintage white women’s ski suit (which is again, practical!). There are price points for everyone, and the amazing owner Joann can really help you steer and style your fashion choices. Her talents do not end there – she offers shoppers her homemade chicken soup on Sundays. Dreamy, right?
This is one of the most exciting, fully realized businesses to open as of late, and it really is ground zero for experienced and novice thrifters alike. Check them out!
