Streamline Vintage Event with Boston Blogger Sami

Oh-so-sweet fashion blogger Sami (from A Glimpse of Glamour) emailed me today letting me know about an event she's co-hosting with vintage shop Streamline Antiques.

 

"I am hoping that you will join me the evening of Thursday, April 28th for a night of vintage fashion and flowery fun at one of my very favorite shops in Lower Mills. Located right between Dorchester/Milton, this little store is one of my favorite hidden gems, where I have found some of my absolute favorite dresses and coats! I will be bringing my headpieces and necklaces as well- so please feel free to stop by and say hello!"

Come out and support Sami from 6-9pm at Streamline Antiques. 1168 Washington Street, Dorchester, MA.
