Thank you to every customer who joined our motley crew this weekend to celebrate our 2nd anniversary with us! Our first mate, Chips Ahoy (aka Chelsea, our fearless store manager), and I—the Dread Pirate Robertson—had a dreadfully good time captaining ye all aboard the Emporium on Saturday! Though the seas beyond our hull were fierce (50+ mph winds, arrr!), spirits remained high aboard ship as we weathered the storm together.

Ye hunted for treasure, donned the silliest of hats, and traded doubloons ’til the crew (all two of us) near collapsed! We’re mighty grateful for each and every one of ye, and for the fun, fabulous, wildly creative crew of oddballs and treasure-seekers that keeps the Emporium afloat.

Another heartfelt thank you to all of our vendors who have been part of this journey. You are the backbone of this shop, and we appreciate you more than words can say. The Emporium wouldn’t be what it is without you!

Dress like the coolest person in the art studio. 🎨🧥

We are shining a spotlight on Corrie and her curated collection at ! Taking inspiration from her visual art background, Corrie curates her booth at the Brighton Emporium like a gallery—specifically drawing from the effortless, creative style of art students on a Friday afternoon. Whether you are looking for a perfectly worn-in 90s graphic tee or a unique jacket that makes a statement, every piece at 1734 Thrift is chosen to help you find your own individual masterpiece.

The name 17-34 comes from the house number of Corrie’s parents’ first home—a symbol of love, trust, and jumping into the unknown with your whole heart. When you shop here, you aren’t just buying clothes; you are participating in a less wasteful, re-loving way of life.
Skip the fast fashion and find something to keep or pass on for generations. Our racks are stocked and ready for you to poke around.
