...be sure to come by and see us at the Vintage Expo this weekend!
We will be unveiling the beautiful old collection that we've been teasing you with on the blog for the past couple months (and oh my gosh, there is so much more than we showed). There will surely be loads of lovelies from other vendors as well.
Vintage Expo takes place this Saturday and Sunday.  Check out details here. (If you have a student ID, you can get in for free on Sunday!)

it's a nice day for a white wedding (time capsule collection, pt. 1)






last week we had the opportunity to purchase a collection of vintage clothing from a wonderful lady who had lovingly gathered pieces through years of working estate sales in the midwest united states. throughout this week, at any spare moment we had, we would begin to gently sift though these treasures, oohing and ahhing in unison at pieces we never thought we would be lucky enough to find.

today was the first day we began to catalog the collection, and we started with a group of edwardian whites. oh, the details! shades of white, embroidery and lace, light as air and so soft to the touch. 




these pieces are too fragile to hang in our shop, but they are still suitable to be worn for special occasions. prices are available upon request. viewings by appointment. serious inquiries, only.




we will continue to catalog this special collection in coming days and weeks, and we will share our progress.  we also hosted a photo shoot today, featuring a local team of photographers and clothing and accessories from the shop, and hope to share those photos with you soon.
thanks so much. xo
