Editorial Review for Vagabond – by Lauren McCutcheon
In Short
Owners Mary Clark and Megan Murphy have raised the bar of accessibly hip shopping in the city. Vagabond is a rare gem of little- to well-known labels, locally garnered vintage, artisanal jewelry and when they have the time, Clark and Murphy sew their own line of skirts, dresses and coats. Between exposed-brick walls and worn wooden floors, Veronica M wrap dresses share rack space with local designer Kevin O'Brien's velvet scarves, lace-up dark jeans and Cynthia St. Vincent leather jackets.

Insider Tips
Save MoneyPrices range from $20 for a vintage skirt to $200 for a Diane von Furstenberg wrap dress.
Know Before You GoThe back of the shop now belongs to Sodafine, a boutique selling vintage and handmade clothing and accesssories for men and women.
The ExtrasLook for chunky handknits and sweet dresses and skirts bearing the shop's own label. They're just as cute as the New York designs, and cheaper, too.

Vagabond has become one of my favorite stores. It has alot of labels that I can't find anywhere else and most of them are priced well. It also has about four or five great lines of dresses for special occasions. I found a pretty dress by Glow (a label I've only ever seen before in some Brooklyn boutiques) that I've worn to three different weddings. The girls in the store are really nice and helpful and the new store in the back is really unique and fun. If I want something to wear that I know nobody else will have then I can usually find it there.
Pros: variety, price, good customer service

the creative energy happening in this place is palpable as soon as you open the door. if you're looking for something they don't have, chances are they can make it for you. the dress selection is amazing and there's always so many irresistable cute, comfy tees. sodafine- in the back, seems to always have the best vintage in town and the handmade stuff is so cute and spirited. an amazing place, totally inspiring!
