VINTAGE STREET SALE W/KESH! (HUSTLE N GRIND)

SALE THIS SUNDAY JUNE 7TH !!!

STAY TUNED FOR MORE VINTAGE SALES THIS JUNE AND JULY!!!!!!!!!!!!

KESH N CONTESSA

Kesh and I met on the streets of Bed Stuy at around 4 am two years ago. I hadn’t a clue who this beautiful tall amazon was, but I thought I’d just stop and holla at a shorty (she is much taller than I). I just came home from a dyke bar, so I thought, why not continue the cruising?

Kesh called me to go out one night, and we ended up at Roxy Cottontails old wednesday party at Room Service. Roxy then showed us a FABULOUS time, and took us (Kesh, M.I.A., Amanda Blank, Daft Punk, Spank Rock, Leif…etc.) into a strip club and bought us lap dances, champagne and so on. For me, picking out the stripper was the best part, but I would have rather Kesh give me the lap dance that night.

KESH, ALI and CONTESSA circa 2007

Ever since then we have a beautiful relationship with out sex. We are vintage partners and collaborators. I trust and value her opinion – and that doesn’t HAPPEN very often. She is really one of the truest people out there, and deserves all the success in the world.

Doing photo-shoots and vintage with her i’d have to say she has a sharp business eye, and really pays attention to detail. So when we decided to sell on the streets of Williamsburg, I know that we’d have great pieces to sell! anywhere from $3 – 30 (Recession prices, honey!)

JORDAN FOX SHOPS

After a wild success of Kesh and I’s first Vintage Sale, we decided to take over the streets again Sunday (April 26th) – This time it was bitter sweet – Kesh is moving to Chicago for a hot minute.

This time it was sweltering hot out, and we were a bit cranky at times, ALSO this time we had some fierce competition – I ended up buying a dress off of another vendor!
We stuck it out, and it ended up being a really chill time because of all our friends, and customers that stopped by!
