booth space, almost finished

We will share photos of the finished booth and other excitement from the Vintage Expo soon....or better yet, come see for yourself!  The Expo runs Saturday and Sunday (free admission on Sunday with a student ID).

While we are away at the Expo, the shop is open Saturday 12-6pm, and closed on Sunday. 
Have a great weekend! xo

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

Fall Ideas


You don't always have to wear dark colors in the fall and winter.
This is a handmade vintage dress 70's. Slouchy long cardigans are in style, this one is from the 80's and still has the original tags...never been used! Those are always the best vintage finds. The necklace is Flaming Hag.You can belt it or not, I just wanted to give it shape.




This is another handmade dress 60's. This is another slouchy cardigan from the 80's maybe early 90's that has never been worn. Topped off with a 80's wooden parrot necklace.



WE have loads of new stuff, lots of purses in all sizes
