Lola's Urban Vintage!







Local artist Nicole Lyons recently opened Lola's Urban Vintage in Allston at 187 Harvard Ave. The store features her incredible jewelry (reconstructed vintage primarily), vintage bags painted with her gorgeous original stencils, vintage hats and clothing, and the work of a few other local artists. I will be selling some of my clothes, bags, and cards there. Please check it out! It is an amazing place with one of a kind pieces at affordable prices. The grand opening party is coming soon - I will post with info soon!
