Vintage Shop Update | An Ode to the Winter Blues

January 6, 2017 No Comments

Since moving to Portland, I’ve not experienced a bitter winter. This current winter season has chilled me to the bone and it breaks my heart a little that this winter is not going away any time soon.

And so, this vintage shop update is my ode to the winter blues. To the short days, to candles being lit in the early morning hours and in the evenings, to copious amounts of hot tea and coffee, and for the heaping layers of blankets on our bed.

Vintage Shop Update | Holiday Soiree

December 8, 2016 No Comments

This week’s vintage shop update, the Holiday Soiree Collection, features all the elegant, classic, and festive wears for all the parties you’ll be attending.

It’s snowing here in Portland at the moment, so that means the whole city is shutting down. Roads are closed, children are sledding on the street instead of at school, and we’re working from home. There’s a fire going in my fireplace and my partner is putting candy canes on our Christmas tree as snow falls outside and wind whistles around the house.

The holidays are here. I can’t stop repeating that in my head. They’re here! Finally! It truly is one of the most wonderful times of the year. I love seeing red noses, everyone bundled up, and baking materials on the end of every isle.

It’s a time of the year about cheer, gathering, and getting all dolled up for a night out to celebrate the year, family, and love by sipping some bubbly champagne, what more can one ask for?

1. vintage 1960s green silk plaid dress | Dear December Dress

2. vintage 1950s navy layered silk chiffon party dress | Air of Mystery Dress

3. vintage 1950s brown fur stole cape | Era of Decadence Cape

4. vintage 1950s black felt dots tulle party dress | Amusement Follies Dress

5. vintage 1960s red rhinestone studded skater dress | Holiday Lights Dress

6. vintage 1940s black velvet skirt with appliqués | Lights Over the City Skirt

7. vintage 1970s Lilli Diamond gown with rhinestone accents | Frosted Champagne Dress

8. vintage 1940s navy star print day dress | Starry Eyed Dress

Vintage Shop Arrivals | Ladylike Autumn

November 18, 2016 1 Comment

Where did November go you guys? I literally felt like it was JUST Halloween and I was dressed up like Eliza Doolittle and dancing around the studio with “dirt” on my face.

Ahh well, life moves on. And the Presidential election happened. Yep. THAT happened. However, this is not the place, nor will it really ever be, to discuss politics, so, let’s press on, shall we?

We have been adding so many new arrivals in the shop, both vintage clothing and accessories and modern vintage inspired clothing from our recent buying trip in L.A. If we listed ALL the new arrivals here, it would take too long, so here are just the most recent ones!
