epiphany time: i have decided to *try* and spend more time on this blog and use it for all (most) things me and fashion (vintage and current styles).. you know.. get a little fancier and more personal with things other than just flogging my latest vintage listings.. make it a true blog.
i will also offer special "blog follower only" discounts to readers who post comments.... so stay tuned all three followers.. errr two (since i am following my own blog O_o) and feel free to give me your two cents... i look forward to it.
as always.. stripes:i know this is super exciting news... but calm down already.
so first question is.. what are you currently obsessed with?
here are my current loves:
piet mondrian inspired prints/ colorblocking:
novelty prints:
and 80's knit sweaters: except i don't have any photos because i keep them all :)
your turn.
Well, since it's fall, I'm obsessed with patterned tights. The crazier, the better! Also, wedge boots and leather jackets.
ReplyDeleteI'm always obsessed with vintage Hawaiian dresses, playsuits and teatimers.
Mondrian is fantastic :)

Maybe it's the time of year...or maybe it's the company I keep but I am all about disco and dirndls this season.
ReplyDeleteLOVE dirndls. Back before i had kids (footloose and fancy free times) i did a thrift store run from phoenix to san francisco to reno to las vegas and back to phoenix.. for some odd reason i found a heap of dirndls. i am always looking for those things.. i have a dirndly inspired skirt going up on ebay this week.. i will post the link when it is up.
ReplyDeletedisco is always awesome.
That first striped dress is amazing!
