One thing that signifies the true spirit of an Austin shopper is our tendency to snub labels and seek out diamonds in the rough. Pack your desire for one-of-a-kind finds and join the girls of Whimsey, a new day-tripper business catering to lovers of flea markets, boutiques and shopping the unknown, in and around Austin.
This operation, founded by sisters and Austin natives, Mandy and Meredith Cloud, allows you to embark on that off-the-beaten-path shopping excursion you and your friends have been idly talking about for months. For a nominal fee, they will escort you to a pre-planned shopping destination, and treat you to road trip snacks and cocktails along the way. And if you uncover too many treasures too large to load onto the charted bus, the girls will connect you with an on site delivery company.
The only label you’ll need to have on your radar is: For Sale.
