Sadly The Other Shop has Closed ð
Original 2012 Post:
My pal Mini Biggles is heading to San Francisco this weekend, so I’m using her trip as a kick in the pants to share some of the highlights of our visit there with all of YOU!
With a big mahalo to Anna of Tallboy Records who coordinated our stops!
Dear Mini –
As you know they call me Mod Betty, so  my recommendations do not involve the hippy haunt of Haight- Ashbury, and I’m sure you’ll get lotsta recommendation for the usual touristy things.
But if you want to experience some mid-century inspired modern fun in San Fran, here’s what we did in our all too short visit a few weeks ago:
Vintage shopping at The Other Shop:
 This shop was next to our  hotel – you’ll love their collection of vintage clothes, housewares, collectibles, tchotskes, mod decorations,vintage  jewelry and more. I know your inner Jan Brady will come out in this stire for sure!
Ride the Cable Cars!
Don’t sit inside the car, or even sit on the outside seats- be daring and stand on the outside, hanging onto to the poles. If you sit down outside you’ll end up getting someone’s butt in your face when they stand up, so Go For It and hang on!
Â
Enjoy your trip dearie! Your Pal, Mod Betty
