Big news from downtown’s Far4: Owner Jenny Hudak Klimenkoff has announced an expansion of a vintage corner she’s been testing out for a couple of months. Head in to shop from her current inventory of thoughtfully curated shoes, purses and scarves—clothing coming soon—or bring in your own treasures to consign. Here’s a bit of what she’s looking for, “anything cool, really. It doesn’t have to be ‘vintage-y old’ or expensive as long as it’s in good condition and is interesting. It can be anything from your grandma’s purse to a cool floppy hat you picked on your travels, from an evening gown to a caftan dress. I want to see it all!”

She’s looking for spring/summer items right now and is offering a flexible 50/50 split.

Also in Far4 news, this busy lady has also launched Far4 Events, a new venture that allows people to rent out her fabulous space for parties along with her party planning services, which is perfect for those who love anything unique or offbeat—two words that perfectly describe Far4’s amazing inventory and Klimenkoff’s amazing eye.
