Beauty of Vintage: August 2011

Beauty of Vintage

EAT. PRAY. LOVE. BUY VINTAGE.

Vintage clothing is not only an obsession for many but also an eco-friendly way to shop and help cut down on sweatshops.

Re-use. Re-worked. Recycle. Rescue.

The benefits of wearing vintage are numerous and rewarding. It's really a delight to realize that no one else is wearing the same outfit!

Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second rate version of somebody else. ~ Judy Garland

So many reasons why I love vintage clothing. You can wear something totally unique, which is so refreshing and inspirational; it's a perfect way to truly reflect your personal style.

When in doubt wear red ~ Bill Blass

Check back when you can as I will be updating my blog more often.

Blushing in Bloomers

Another fantastic vintage finds. I fell in love with this beauty the second I laid my eyes on this eye candy! It is handmade (double A-dorable)!!!

Delightful vintage red bloomers feature rows of beige on the back side ruffles. An adorable addition to your wardrobe this spring and summer....and pin-up photo sessions! They could be worn over tights or under a dress.

Fabulous beaded Mannequin - Oh how I love thee.

I must buy this mannequin!

I love the full beaded work on this beauty. I'm trying to work out a deal with the owner(pray pray). This belongs in a dressing room! Right now, it serves as a door stopper, ha?!! *gasp*! I must rescue this beauty.

P.S. I'm pretty persistent - so im optimistic this should be mine soon :)

I will keep you posted my friends.
