Night Moves: Topstitch Moving Sale

POSTED: Friday, March 20, 2009, 9:12 PM
Filed Under: what we heart

Don't know what to do tonight? Don't worry, we've got you covered.

I've loved marching up Topstitch's steep, fairy-tale stairs for the past few years. Browsing through their discounted vintage bin, eyeing up the quirky art they've always got on the walls (including their weird collection of owl trinkets and paintings), and playing with the big, fluffy cat that moseys about the store was cool too. Unfortunately, the Topstitch girls are packing up their bags next Monday and heading to 54 N. Third Street. It's a smaller place, so we assume that their move has something to do with the crappy economy. As a result, they'll be getting rid of a bit of their vintage, men's and baby sections. It's all very bittersweet — we won't be able to buy their cute (but not grossly adorable) baby clothes or odd, funky vintage in the future, but this weekend, it's for sale.


Fri.-Sun., March 20-22; silent auction Fri., March 20, 6-8:30 p.m., Topstitch Boutique, 311 Market St., 215-238-8877, topstitchboutique.com
