Sneak Peek: A Very Special Dress

Sometimes the vintage fairy godmothers are looking out for you, just as they were on the day that I found this late '60s Emilio Pucci dress....at a thrift store! The dress is just beautiful, an ethereal silk chiffon with a classic Pucci floral print and those colors, come on! Even before I noticed that this dress was Pucci, I could just tell that it was a designer piece, the construction is so solid and the fabric is divine. This is one of those pieces as a vintage buyer that you don't find often but it is oh-so-exciting when it you do. Check it out in the shop now! 

A Spring Vintage Rainbow

A shop update filled with springy pieces in lots of bright colors! In the mix is a pair of awesome plaid palazzo pants, a '70s Lilly Pulitzer maxi dress and a really cute cherry print.

Shorts 'n' Shades

It's summer! Well I guess not quite yet. But last week's 80-degree weather got me all excited for movies in the park and backyard barbeques. I snatched up a few pairs of denim cutoffs in varying shades and sizes plus a couple pairs of oversized shades to get your summer wardrobe started. They'll all be trickling into the shop throughout this week.

1970s Sweaters

It's on the cusp of not being sweater weather anymore but I couldn't resist these two '70s sweaters. I love the colors, don't they look like they belong together? Look for them in the shop this week!

The Artist

Have you guys seen The Artist? I went to see it at a theater called NiteHawk in my neighborhood where you can watch cool movies while you swill cocktails and eat good food, basically my ideal place! At first, I was a little skeptical that a silent movie could hold my interest but it was actually a really charming movie. The late '20s-early '30s fashion is enough of a reason to go see it, I was especially smitten with the movie's "It Girl" Peppy Miller played by the lovely Bérénice Bejo. I really love her short curly bob and I can't wait to try it myself with rag rollers.

Is is Summer Yet? A Shop Update

This wacky winter weather has me feeling like spring is right around the corner, which is delusional since it’s the beginning of February. I had been saving these summery pieces for a little later in the year but I couldn’t resist listing them now, especially after a vintage appointment where I picked up lots of crochet pieces—my favorite summer textile! Most of these are in the shop now and the rest will be showing up today and tomorrow except for maybe the first dress…that one just may have found a permanent home in my closet.
