BK Flea Spree

FIPS friend Kate Payne just wrote a snazzy new book: The Hip Girl's Guide to Homemaking, so obvs you should totally buy it. And lucky for us, we're participating in a fun shopping event today that Kate's hosting at the BK Flea!

"BK Flea Spree, a game where five Brooklyn bloggers will shop the market for $25 worth of home décor. The squad of awesome local writers will scour the Flea for inexpensive ways to spruce up their spaces in a Hip Girl–inspired style."

Amanda and I are gonna hit up the flea from 11am to 1pm in search of some fab stuff, and then each blogger's items will be displayed and put up for a vote on the Hip Girl's site. You can follow along with the fun on Twitter by following hashtag #bkfleaspree...I'm sure we'll mostly be making snarky comments back and forth at each other in between our tea cozy purchases, but whatever.

Here's how it breaks down:

Team One: Emily Cavalier from Mouth of the Border @Ecava

Team Two: Me-n-Amanda

Team Three: Faye Penn from Brokelyn @brokelyn

Team Four: Kate Bussman from Culture Shockd in NY @katebussman

Team Five: Autumn Giles from Autumn Makes and Does @autumnmakes

You better vote for our shit later.
