Selling in style
The dreamlike, synthetic
sound of Sigur Ros' "Gob-
hledigook" sounds from the
entrance of Star Vintage,
drawing second glances
from passershy.
Inside, down a labyrinth-
like set of stairs, Julie Bai-
hak, an employee of the
vintage store - is fixing a
display of colorful hauhles.
"Sigur Ros - I hung out
with themrshackstage," Bai-
bak said with a laugh. "That
sounds pretentious, doesn't
itt"
The entire store seems to
he on display. Customers are
transported to an anachro-
nistic space that holds trin-
kets from all decades except
the present.
A row of go-go hoots in
Day-Gin colors is lined up
against the wall. Styrofoam
mannequins in various
states of undress sport neon
wigs.
"We doodle on the man-
nequin heads," Baibak said.
"We kind of just do whatever
we think will add some kind
of weird flair to this place."
Baibak said her favorite
part of the job is interacting
with customers.
"The people that come in
the store are really interest-
ing," Baibak said. "You get
to play dress-up with them;
it's really fun."
Out of the numerous dis-
plays, Baibak said she is most
fond of the furniture room,
which is located in thehback.
The furniture room
houses pretty much every-
thing one would expect to
find in a living room - hut
with a twist. An old-fash-
ioned television set shows
flickering hlack-and-white
static hats, and off-kilter
paintings hang crookedly
from the walls.
"We have customers
that come in (the furniture
room) all the timehbecause it
reminds them of their child-
hood," Baibak said.
Baibak, who had previ-
ously worked in Toledo at
a chocolate store, found her
job in Ann Arbor assa spur of
the moment derision.
"Whenever I think of
somethingcto do, I do it," she
said.
Her laissez-faire outlook
on life has led her to a bohe-
mian lifestyle.
"I'm kind of a hum, actu-
ally," Baibak said. "I don't go
to school. I hang out."'

Julie Baibak reclines is the furniture room of Star Vintage, her favorite dispfay area is the
