The Runcible Spoon
February 28, 2010
I came in this morning to find a stack of this cool food zine called The Runcible Spoon. It is edited by Malaka of thegrandinterational.com.
A small stack in Treasury foyer right now. Love this idea! And I can’t wait to try this salted radish bruschetta recipe. Perhaps a prominent food co-op is in our future ?

We are saddened by the news that the owner of The Remix, Stacey DiTata, has been suddenly diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis and The Remix is closing as a result. We know that The Remix has added so much to the appreciation of vintage clothing in Capitol Hill and in the entire D.C. area. We will miss it’s presence and wish the best of luck to the team under these circumstances. Here is the statement on their website:
THE REMIX TO CLOSE BY FEB 28, 2010
It is with great sadness that we must announce the closing of The Remix. The Washington DC metro area has been the home to our store for over 8 years and we have loved every minute shared with our customers. We hope that our passion for vintage clothing has inspired creativity as well as an endearment to fashions past.

Style Shots: Jian & John
February 3, 2010
Jian DeLeon of Peasant Status and John Thornley of US Royalty stopped in and we couldn’t help but admire their classic sense of style. Their plan for the evening was to have a gentleman’s night of whiskey, bbq, ping pong and clothing trades, the brainchild of John’s brother, Paul. Jian is a regular and we admire how he picks pieces that are both timeless and look to be tailor-made for him.
Both the corduroy blazer sported by Jian and the navy peacoat on John are available in-store.

Meet our new employee: B. McGee. She looks amazing in just a bow-tie or scarf. She came all the way from Flatonia, Texas. If you are ever in the Lone Star State, you gotta stop by Lucky Find Antiques. The owners are incredibly sweet and helpful.

Style Shots: Ronia Coats
December 21, 2009
Ronia’s big sister Anoko is a fantastic stylist as you can see from this photo! Anoko quickly whipped together this amazing all-Treasury 1880s meets the 1920s outfit! It reminded us of the fashion in The Young Victoria (see it!) where the collars and flares on the jackets made us wish for a Victorian revival for men as well.

Friend/Readers,
We have 5 pairs of passes for an exclusive pre-screening of The Young Victoria, starring Emily Blunt. The buzz is hot on this and you know Treasury loves a good period piece. Email us at info@shoptreasury.com if you would like to attend the screening and the pre-party at the Ritz beforehand:
From Academy Award Winners Graham King and Martin Scorsese, along with the makers of Gosford Park and The Departed, comes THE YOUNG VICTORIA, the story of Queen Victoria’s early rise to power.
On the eve of her 18thBirthday and succession to the English throne, young Princess Victoria (Emily Blunt) is caught in a royal power struggle. But it is her blossoming love affair with Albert (Rupert Friend) that will determine the strength of her reign.
Event details:
