A morning market mission

On Saturday I had the urge to go market hunting. After a quick google, I set out on a trip to The Market NYC. Apparently the best market for emerging designers and in a great location between Soho and Nolita. Ok, so maybe another excuse to go shopping down that way.

What a hidden gem! Literally, most of the stalls are that of upcoming jewellery designers. It's actually quite a small market in a local gymnasium, but what it lacks in size it makes up for in unique, one-off designs.

I got some great little stacking rings and I think I'll be going back. While there wasn't much apart from jewellery at the market, I did snag a great vintage summer dress on my way back through Soho. The shopping here is crazy with a capital C.
