R.I.P. American Rag


This just in: the greatest vintage store in SF closed down after 26 years.

American Rag was amazing. Seamlessly mixing new and vintage clothing, it was a heaven my family and I loved since I was 17. It was a huge warehouse space with high ceilings, towering windows, and an absolute ton of new and vintage clothing and shoes.

Its where I got all of my vests, my tsubi jeans, vanessa's salmon colored crewneck sweater, amazing vintage tees and dresses...

I told my family last night at dinner that our favorite store in SF closed. There was silence at the table for about 30 seconds. After which, we all shared memories of all the good deals we got there.

WHY did this have to happen?!?!?! why!
