I have wanted to do a little vintage shop tour in Helsinki quite a while. If you want to have a personal style vintage shops are the great way to have a something unique to your wardrobe. I was looking for a little hangbag with my circle dresses and circle skirts.
I started my tour from Töölö, a shop called as Penny Lane. The shop is in Töölö. It's easy to go there with tram 2. There was absolutely beautiful evening dresses from 20's. Such a shame that I don't have any use for dress from 20's. Especially if it's a evening dress. I also saw there a pretty polka dot dress from 50's. It was size 36 so it was too small to me. What a shame! I have looked for that kind of dress for a while. One thing that I noticed during my tour was that most of dresses were small sizes. Which was quite disappointing. I didn't bought anything.

Another shop on my tour was called as Hoochie Mama Jane in Kallio. Tram 3 goes near to the shop. Hoochie Mama Jane was the main reason why I have wanted to do vintage shop tour. I have heard lot of that shop. It was full of pretty things. I liked the old accessories, the earrings, brooches etc. I bought a little brown handbag from 50's. I'm sure I will go in Hoochie Mama Jane again.

In a near future I like to do another vintage store tour, this time only in Kallio area. I met friend of mine in Kallio after visiting in Hoochie Mama Jane and she told me that Kallio is full of this kind shops. I gonna ask my friends if they like to join to the tour. My idea is this; exploring the vintages shops in Kallio and a brunch. Sounds like a nice way to spend Saturday.
Till next time!
