Please Note: Have you seen the new signage at World Thrift? The new signs look spectacular! The BIG DAYS at World Thrift are Monday (when all the really great new stuff comes out) and Wednesday (Senior Citizen Day). So you’ll want to get in line early on those days. World Thrift is closed on Sundays. Do you like to plan ahead? The 3rd Annual Día de los Muertos in the City of Lake Worth falls on November 3rd this year!
Did you know the City of Lake Worth (aka, “LDub”) is THE ONLY “Hipster Haven” in Palm Beach County? It’s true. But there are many imitators and pretenders to the throne, e.g., West Palm Beach is one and Delray Beach is another mimic. So. What finally tipped the scale for this City of Lake Worth?
It happened when the hugely popular, trendy, and hip World Thrift opened up three years ago. And things have never been the same.
World Thrift, if you didn’t know by now, is located at 2425 N. Dixie Hwy in Lake Worth, open Monday–Saturday, 9:00–6:00. Call 561-588-4050 for more information. Use this link to see some of the incredible fashion and garments available for MEN, WOMEN AND CHILDREN!
Remember, EVERY Wednesday is
Senior Citizen Day.
Following your shopping experience pack your stuff in the car and walk across the street for lunch or dinner at Tacos Al Carbon. It’s the new hot spot everybody is raving about in Central PBC and the latest stop on the Taste History Culinary Tour!CALLING ALL HIPSTER MILLENNIALS!
Make your home in L-Dub. The one and only Hipster Haven in all of Palm Beach County.
Following wave after wave of good news coming from our little City the philosophy of Apatharchism has firmly taken hold here. Adherents include former 60’s-style Anarchists, Millennial-Anarchists, Anarch sympathizers, and affinity members once focused only on the bad news, doom and gloom, and the “Wolf at the Door” that never appeared.
Take for example the City’s bond referendum that passed overwhelmingly in November 2016. Those few blocks of the City once occupied by Anarchists and inaccessible by pogo stick, skateboard, and unicycle will soon have new roads! Areas that already have LED street lighting, new water lines and fire hydrants, upgraded parks and Greenways is fomenting the Apatharchist rebellion. “The roads are new in Lake Worth”, the Anarchist holdouts will observe, not quite enthralled as living conditions improve all around them.
As far as all the other Millennials go, not quite enamored with the Anarchist lifestyle. . .
Are you a Millennial Hipster looking for a place that’s “up and coming”? Do you want to stand out? Make yourself noticed? By definition a Hipster is born about 1980, and is attracted to up-and-coming cities: that’s Lake Worth, Florida!Having World Thrift located here makes all the sense in the world now. The New Times rated World Thrift one of the best thrift stores ever:
[I]t remains the only place in town to score a vintage silk kimono, a $3.99 collection of mint-condition '70s-era teen magazines, a plethora of options for the next ugly Christmas sweater party, and a White House Black Market dress with the tags still on for ten bucks, all in one afternoon.
However, the looming question remains: are Hipsters really hip and why do they all seem to look alike? Or are they really raging non-conformists who have all conformed?
There are other options as well. You can take another path like the Anarchist Millennials:
Look closely at the written instructions on how and when to empty the poop bucket. And who knows, you might even catch an Anarchist ‘musical’ while you’re in town. |
