GITANO

Long before Gitano was a K-Mart brand, they were one of the hottest denim and casual wear brands of the 80s and early 90s. Catering to the designer jeans craze of that time, Gitano had a wide range of ultra tailored denim in a variety of washes-- as well as contemporary sportswear for men, women and children.



Shania Twain was famously featured in a Gitano Jeans ad in 1994 when it sponsored her "Perfect Fit" tour. That same year, Gitano was sold to Fruit of the Loom after years of financial distress. Gitano is best remembered as an affordable, classic and durable brand.

We love Gitano because it is made with quality materials and has a structured look. Outfit yourself in head-to-toe Gitano for a look that is perfectly 1991, or wear as separates for a low-key americana vibe. Check out some of the choice Gitano pieces we have at the shop right now below!

HAPPY PRIDE 2016!


The 47th Annual Pride Parade is this coming weekend on June 26! Have fun and please remember to BE SAFE! Come check out Kokorokoko for some funky, one-of-a-kind vintage finds! We put together some outfits below to show your spirit!









While it is a time for the LGBTQ+ community to celebrate, it is also a time to remember all of those who lost their lives in Orlando. 


Tonight at 7pm, Berlin Nightclub is hosting a benefit for OneOrlando, a fund created in response to tragedy in Orlando. The funds raised will go towards the needs of the victims and their families. It will feature 25 drag performers and 65 raffle prizes from local businesses. Doors at 7, starts at 8! 

For more information on the efforts of OneOrlando, visit OneOrlando.org!

Inspired by POPPLES!


Growing up, I remember seeing Popples and thinking how cute they were! These small, brightly colored teddy bears turned into balls when you fold them up! They even had cute names like Potato Chip, Pancake and Puzzle. Very similar to Care Bears, but maybe a little crazier! So, in the spirit of Easter, we put together a few outfits inspired by the season and of these cuddly 80s treasures. :)
