Go Small, Get Vintage (& win $50!)

Posted on: Monday, November 25, 2013

Don't worry about cutting Thanksgiving short this year to stand in line to shop: avoid a people traffic jam, starting off the season frustrated and tired, instead of merry and bright. Sleep in the day after, get all dolled up, and go to small businesses in your area. Find a lovely for your loved one as you leisurely stroll through the holiday shopping season.


We are all to familiar with the hustle and ordeal Black Friday has become. Recently, we discovered a small initiative to take back our post-Thanksgiving shopping, known as Plaid Friday. Here is how they describe the concept:
The name Plaid Friday was conceived from the idea of weaving the individual threads of small businesses together to create a strong fabric that celebrates the diversity and creativity of independent businesses. Plaid Friday is the relaxing and enjoyable alternative to the big box store “Black Friday,” and is designed promote both local and independently owned businesses during the holidays.
Can't make it in Friday? Not to worry, Small Business Saturday (check out their Shop Small campaign) spotlights small businesses, too! In a season centered on celebrations with friends and family, we want to celebrate with our dear customers, too. So if you find yourself here in San Luis Obispo on Friday or Saturday, November 29-30th, Shop Small & Plaid with us. And to celebrate, every purchase you make here at Ruby Rose during these two days enters you into a drawing for $50 store credit! Vintage items already come attached to so much love, so spread gifts unique and local, Santa would be proud.

Follow the Junking Trail

Posted on: Friday, November 22, 2013


Ready or not, the holidays are upon us, and with less days this year between us giving thanks and going crazy helping Santa. Plan ahead to enjoy the hectic shopping about to ensue, and we'll give you the local skinny on where the goods are. A few month's back, we participated in this collaborative trek with other vintage shops in the county, and are excited to again provide you with the Junking Trail! November 29th (Black Friday) & 30th (Small Business Saturday), take a scenic-yet efficient-tour up and down the 101, and bring home unique treasures for your loved ones this year.

Printed versions of this flier available at our shop-so stop on by and grap your map!
