Robert Pattinson Buys Vintage Furniture In LA — Are He & Kristen Stewart Moving In Together?

Is Robert Pattinson  nesting? Hollywoodlife.com has exclusively learned that he bought three new pieces of furniture and we have photos of  his purchases. Hmm — could he be furnishing a home he’ll share with Kristen Stewart?

Robert Pattinson is spending time away from Kristen Stewart having fun out and about — and he was a man of the people on Sept. 21, furniture shopping like a regular guy out in Los Angeles!
Rob, 25, was spotted by some very lucky fans at the furniture vintage store, This Is Not Ikea in Los Angeles — a spot that has also been frequented by celebs Jessica AlbaJonah HillJustin Long and more.
“Rob Pattinson and his friend, who also had an English accent, spent close to two hours shopping,” an eyewitness tells Hollywoodlife.com exclusively.”Rob was very friendly and seemed to know exactly what style he was looking for. He purchased two industrial-looking lamps and an antique, distressed wooden bench. These items would like great in a loft, like a New York City loft or a loft in downtown Los Angeles.” The three items he purchased added up to $475. Again- this is typical Rob, who despite earning $20 million last year, still lives a very low key life.
A fan posted the photo on Tumblr yesterday after her sister’s friend snapped the shot. Rob opted for the simple t-shirt look, but he’s so dashing that he pulled it off with ease!
Both Rob  and Kristen are well-know vintage clothing fans and the cool, sleek furniture in This Is Not Ikea (TINI) looks exactly like home decor that they would like. But the furniture is not outrageously expensive! It’s vintage items sold at ikea prices.
According to the website, TINI is also “the ultimate green way to shop.” So we’re not surprised to see R-Patz browsing around.
“Buying vintage is the ultimate green way to shop.  You don’t increase your carbon footprint through manufacturing.  You are recycling, in the best sense of the word.  That beautiful 50’s lamp doesn’t end up in a landfill, (and you are way cooler than your friends)” the website says.
TINI offers everything from ash trays to love seats. And you can even rent the furniture for a quarter of the cost of the original retail price.
This definitely seems like a store R-Patz & K-Stew would furnish their lovenest from.
What do you think, HollywoodLifers — was Rob shopping for some creature comforts to make K-Stew feel at home in London?
