New Tweet: The Rare Bird Opens in Oakland

Piedmont Avenue’s latest destination for retail therapy opened this week, and we’ve got a sneak peek at what’s inside. Dubbed The Rare Bird, the shop stocks men’s and women’s apparel, accessories, items for the home, vintage finds and recycled items handpicked by owner Erica Skone-Rees.

Among the offerings from local designers you’ll find here are metal adornments by San Francisco jewelry designer Colleen Mauer and fashion-forward fleece by San Francisco label Apres Collective.

Like what you see? A fine time to stop by comes on Nov. 27, when the store throws down during a grand opening celebration.
