I was just recently in Frenchtown, which is a neighboring town about 15 minutes away from where I live. The hubby and I love to go get a cup of coffee and then walk on the Tow Path along the deleware river. This quaint, eco concious town is known for the Tow Path which connects to Lambertville, NJ. You can even rent really cool bicycles and ride along the river. 
Down the road is an old fahioned roller rink. Also a little eatery, lovin oven, where you can get gluten free pancakes or a yummy salmon salad. Frenchtown is a great spot to be low key and enjoy the delights that are scattered in book stores, quaint eateries, home decor and fashion boutiques.
A store Pantaluna caught my eye this last time we visited. Pantaluna adds to the ecclectic and unique fashion scene here.
The changing room above, is made entirely out of vintage t-shirts. The poles inside that support the shape of the tent are old pipes. I love it!
Illia Barger started this company after she cut up old cashmere sweaters to make comfortable pants for herself and her partner Glen Capelle. They opened their first workshop in Rosemont, NJ and then two years later moved to Frenchtown. Pantaluna makes skirts, pants, dresses, curtain tassels, and rugs using vintage t- shirts. Wow!
