New Vintage Coming This Week

This week I will be adding some bold dresses, bohemian bags and a couple vintage belts to the shop.  Here's a little peak.  I just got this industrial metal shelf for the shop, tomorrow I'll show some other new store fixtures that I purchased.  It is coming together slowly, but surely!

Spring 2011 Lookbook Preview

I just received the final photos for our Spring Lookbook  from photographer Alice Hu.  I probably won't be able to compile the lookbook until later this week or early next, but here is a little tease to tide you over.  I've been busy over at the studio trying to get things set up and can't wait to show you what I've done!

Loads of Vintage Coming Soon!

We just got in a whole bunch of vintage and I am busy cleaning and steaming to get these ready for the shop.  I also need to pick up a large bag of clothes from the seamstress.  That is always really fun because I forget what I drop off and then I'm surprised when I see it again.  I remember when I first started selling vintage I could tell you where I got every item and how much I paid for it (not that I would), but now I just have so much I can hardly keep track.  Not such a bad problem to have, I suppose. 

Don't forget: If you live in the So Cal area, we are going to be selling our clothing and accessories at Mimosa Salon in Hermosa Beach tonight from 5-7.  There will be drinks and goodie bags provided!  To find out more click here.

To Sell or Not to Sell?

As a vintage seller, I find that I actually don't save that many things for myself.  I remember working retail for years and for some reason I would never want to buy the things I saw all day.  Maybe it's that or maybe it's just because I enjoy selling things even more than I enjoy vintage.  Whatever the reason, there are a few things I have held onto over the years and beaded purses are one of them.  They are just so pretty!  I don't think I have used one of these, they just sit in my closet.  So, I am thinking that I might put them in the shop to give them a chance to be used. What do you think?

Atty Myer

A new year always seems to bring about new talent. While hunting for a new clutch, I came across these perfect little handmade bags by Atty Myer. At only $24 a piece, I highly suggest stocking up on every style.

I'm totally digging this new shrug clutch from The Laughing Mouse. It is exactly the same colors that I have in my bedroom, so it would be like carrying around a little piece of home. Plus, I've been looking for a wintry bag to warm up these cool Houston nights. Well, at least the last couple of nights this year have been sort of chilly...kind of...right?
