some sweet surprises

I never would have expected to find such beautiful vintage shops here in Okinawa. Everything from the storefronts to the little treasures inside are treated with such care and detail. Even the ambiance was delightful. I enjoyed the space as much as, if not more than all of the jewelry, dresses, and handmade goods. Sepia photographs littered some of the old, wooden tables, and I thought of the stories that they could tell, and how did they end up here? I've never been to France before, but I imagine the boutiques there look and feel like this; feminine and simple. It was near closing time and we had the places practically to ourselves, so we took our time, taking in all of the sweet surprises each little shop had to offer.
