Entering Clothes in the Past Lane is comparable to stepping into a fancifully funky dream closet. Thankfully, customers don't need a dream budget to do so.

Whether it's studying, learning, working or partying that dominates the lives of students, they often welcome the opportunity to sport something other than sweats or a college T-shirt. When it comes to getting the best apparel for your dollar, Clothes in the Past Lane is Newark's best bet.

Clothes in the Past Lane retails merchandise encompassing the best of two worlds - new and vintage.

According to owner Sandi Patterson, variety and diversity are what attracts a sufficient clientele to her style-savvy store. The boutique carries an array of both new and vintage finds at affordable prices. Whether a customer's taste is shabby-chic or modern and stylish, the shop is well-equipped to satisfy fashion requests at adequate prices.

Patterson says her merchandise is priced at moderate, mid and low-high price points. Additional deals such as the "$15 and under" table make quick gifting especially convenient. Frequent sellers in the store, including American Apparel t-shirts, sold at two for $30, must be constantly re-ordered.

For university students and Newark residents, girls and guys alike, Clothes in the Past Lane is Newark's best choice for hip apparel at reasonable value.
