Favorite little things

Sunday, July 27, 2008

I have been on several vintage adventures, but here are some of my favorite things.

On my adventure with my sister to the warehouse last year, see post OCD comes in handy sometimes, I rummaged through piles of purses and bags to find this little vintage suitcase.


Not only would this be nice to be stacked up with other stylish suitcases in the living room, but I also want to travel with this on our trip out to Colorado.

Next, I found this cute pink crocheted dress at my favorite thrift store by my college. I wore this to my college graduation party for only $20! The crochet is nicely done with a matching pink slip underneath. This picture below was taken when I had my cousins over for dinner at our new apartment. Photo complements of Angry Asian Creations.

My finds

Thursday, November 15, 2007

I have a confession to make...I love online shopping! My recent purchases have been from vintage sites. I may be a little late on the nautical theme, but I can always wear this next season. I bought this sweater from Femminastyle. It's a canary yellow lightweight short sleeved sweater with a detail anchor on the front.


Another recent purchase was from LaLaLui Designs. It's a maroon Capezio. I haven't received it yet, but I am looking forward to sporting it around this winter.

Maroon Capezio Pre-Loved Purse :: $12.00

OCD comes in handy sometimes

My recent vintage adventures have been from the help of (one) of my partners in crime, my little sister. We recently went to a warehouse sale that consisted of an old woman's hoarding OCD. The rules of this place was whatever you can fit in these plastic bags you get for $10. Whatever we saw we stuffed in our bags. We came out with 2 bags of shirts and purses, a vintage bowling bag along with a bowling ball, and a vintage suitcase...all for $10! Our vintage finds kept us going so we went to Second Hand Rose. We purchased a pearl and gold 4 tier necklace, a cashmere sweater vest, belts, and an over sized dress. What a day! Can't wait for more of those.
