It’s not every day that you walk into a place where a powder puff store keeper comes up to you and offers you a cool beverage. She handed me a drink and said «just have a browse around, and come have a chat with us in the front window». Lisa and her two friends were posed like mannequins wiling away the afternoon in the shop’s front window. I was in love.
Lisa took charge of the space 10 months ago now, and it looks like business is going swimmingly. She says she’s going to celebrate Atomic Martini’s first birthday with a prom (keep your ears to the ground). Her clothing racks are plump with high quality vintage and retro beauties. She has some great stuff for the gents as well. A nice added touch is the price tags that site the specifics of each item: era, style, and condition. Her prices are hefty (expect to pay anywhere from $ 100– $ 500+) and aimed at, as she states «people with good taste who have some money to spend».
Lisa is an enchantress. On the day I met her, she was wearing a 1950’s boat necked yellow dress, with matching yellow head scarf and with olive green heels. If you give her an idea of what you’re looking for, she’ll run off and find garments for you that might interest you. I happened to be looking for ‘baking dresses’- dresses I can wear while baking. She ran off and returned with a beautiful 1970’s cotton, navy blue, embroidered mu-​mu. «Cotton, light, breezy, won’t get in the way of your baking– I spend all summer in these, I do. I really do.» I was impressed by such a practical suggestion to my abstract question.
Come here to enjoy browsing through the clothes, accessories and Lisa’s genuinely easy, laid back hospitality. What a way to spend an idyll Saturday afternoon– in a retro store in the ‘burbs with a couple of new found, and very well dressed friends. Delight.
