The Language of (Our) Love

As is surely obvious, we here at Krrb are rather obsessed with secondhand goods, vintage finds, thrifting the day away and embarking on flea-market forays that take us on adventures we never imagined. As with any exploration into foreign territory it helps to know the language. So, we've decided to dedicate these next two weeks to a thorough introduction to the mysterious lexicon of vintage vendors, thrift store crawlers and flea market explorers the globe over. Enjoy!
