Kuddos to vintage






The top is a recommended outfit from the newly updated BHLDN and the bottom is a great alternative available in No Carnations. Don't you just love vintage?

The Long and Short of it ~ Part 2






Some more 70s goodness! Can't wait to put these into the shop starting this weekend~
The last one is my favorite with a subtle bamboo print and beaded shadow neckline :)

The Long and Short of it ~ Part 1




Photographing quite a few things from the 70s lately. Here are a few sneak pics from a photo-shoot on Saturday morning with my dear friend Sarah. The bottom two are already in the shop! Part 2 coming later today~

Handmade Jewelry inspiration







Some more recent pieces that I have made, coming to the shop soon! Keeping busy on too many projects. It's nice sometimes to make jewelry. A very short time frame goal, easily achieved. Instant gratification...yes!

Never to late ~ Shop update




A black and Gold shop update in Spring? Yes & let me explain. I have many closets full of vintage. Each one is dedicated to upcoming shop updates & approaching months. For instance, there is a closet filled with Spring colored dresses in beautiful shades of sorbet set aside for the months of April/May. There is another closet filled with 70s vibe denim shirts, leather accessories, nautical clothing & Tribal jewelry for June. At the end of each month most items are gone to their new homes but for some reason I have ended up with tons of leftover black and gold. Maybe because I hate photographing black or maybe it was my mood, I am not sure. So, here it is. Lots of black in the middle of March. St. Patrick's day none the less!
The fearless Irish in me!

Black and Gold. A new favorite color combination I think. I will admit that the traveling dress of Marquise de Merteuil's is never far from my mind...
