Getting Ready for the Riverside Vintage Crawl – Halloween Edition

The first Riverside Vintage Crawl in June was such a hit, we’re doing another round–a Halloween edition!

On October 17 (6pm-10pm), your favorite vintage stores in Riverside will be curating clothing and accessories perfect for the spooky season.

Aside from cool vintage pieces, there will be Halloween music and refreshments as well, plus enter our Raffle in stores. Just like the first installment, the stores will also be covering the tax for all purchases made in-store during the event.

We’re all excited to go shopping but before we go on another fun night of all things vintage, we’ve got a few reminders:

Plan your Route.

Just like you did for trick or treating as a kid, but easier, since we’ve got five participating Vintage Shops within just a few blocks, you should have no problem finding and visiting them all!

Prepare costume references.

The event is only four hours so you want to come with a mission. That means having a costume in mind, so you know what pieces to look for. A list of items would be helpful as well.

Dress strategically.

Wear a jacket that’s easy to take on and off. A tank top or a t-shirt works great as a base layer so it’s easy to try on clothes. All the participating stores have changing rooms.

Bring a reusable bag.

Don’t forget to bring a reusable shopping bag or two to put your purchases in, especially if you plan on doing quite a bit of shopping.

Follow the vintage stores on social.

They usually post pieces they have in store, so you get dibs if you follow their accounts. Feel free to tag them during the event too!
