Backward Glances featured in Vogue article!

We are thrilled to be featured in the Vogue article “A Travel Guide to Asbury Park, the Brooklyn of the Jersey Shore” on Vogue.com:

“Just an hour and a half from New York City by train or car, the Jersey Shore town of Asbury Park is emerging as a hip alternative to the Rockaways for urban weekenders, steeped in rock ’n’ roll history, cooled by Atlantic breezes, and filled with trendy boutiques and cafés. Make a long weekend of it—before it gets too cold.

The train lets off downtown, then it’s a fifteen-minute stroll down Cookman Avenue to the ocean, with plenty of shops to peek into along the way. Browse the beach-cottage decor at Salt Design Co., Shelter Home, and House of Modern Living. Or sift through the vintage threads at Backward Glances, in the basement of the Shoppes at the Arcade, and stock up on breezy tie-dye dresses and Breton tops at Interwoven.”

The article goes on to give an itinerary for a 3 day weekend in our lovely city of Asbury Park, with links to many of the great businesses in town. You can read the entire Vogue article here.

Thanks, Jennifer Conrad! We’ve always wanted to be in Vogue!
