Our own Haight-Ashbury: Hippies and weekenders bumper to bumper on the Yorkville crawl, 1960s.

INSPIRATION: The coffee houses may have disappeared, but we’re still making the Yorkville scene with the hippie, beatnik and tie-dyed Trotskyist ghosts that bump between the Riverboat and Rochdale. Just think of a mix-and-match combination of comfy knits and ripped denim with exotic details for this peacock revolution.
