Hello dear fashionables! This week has brought me happiness and it's not even Friday! As a completion of my market & thrift/charity shopping introduction from the weekend here are more items that I wanted to include for the #06 installment of Vanity + Vintage. I hope that you enjoy!
Perhaps there's something specific that you've found recently at a vintage shop. Let me know, you may be featured in an upcoming V+V series with me.
*In case you have missed out on what the V+V series is all about read more about it here!*
*Update: Deadline for V+V entries are now closed.

This is an old mini-briefcase that I bought years ago. I finally took it to an expert and she told me that it was an early 70s piece. I loved it so I included it in the shoot anyway.
I love this new bag, and purchased for only $2 bucks
This (pink/taupe) printed retro blouse is going to be a favourite (for mixing) in my wardrobe, I can feel it! $4
The other goods: Shoes: Anthropologie, Swallow necklace: Maylee's Jewelry, Belt: thrifted, Beaded necklace: flea market, bag-Thrifted/see above Ann Taylor, Denim-Cheap Monday, Blouse-charity shop.

Madison- that case is Steve McQueen cool, so of course it's in the shots. The whole outfit is fresh- not a whiff of vintage to it to me, I love the mint green belt with the orange/tan leathers. The shoes are pretty chic too.
ReplyDeleteLiking the series. I may have to send you something- would LOVE to be featured by you! xo.
I'm also loving this series! This is a very cool look, with a very vintage vibe. The briefcase and bag are fantastic!

Love, love, love that suitcase! Very cute look!
ReplyDeleteThanks lovely Bella! I looove that case! Sometimes, I use it as a purse and carry it on the train (think, little paddington)! haha! I was feeling prints this time, the shirt is an old 70 top that is huge, but I pinned it nicely! I'm thinking of a few featured images in the V+V series, probably send me image after I pick a theme, etc. *Will be in touch dear, after I get it all together! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Cyrillyn! I'm so happy that it's getting great responses, in the early stages. -xo

I love the contrasting colour of the belt and the red in the top. The little suitcase is a cool find as well.
ReplyDeleteI am ashamed to confess that the only vintage thing I've ever bought is a leather jacket from Gianni Versace collection. But that piece can't be called vintage as it is from the 90', while vintage has to be from the 70' at most. Love your find.
ReplyDeleteHey there dear,
ReplyDeleteYes, unfortunately your cool 90's piece isn't vintage, but that's okay. real vintage should be 50yr. or so old. I'm glad that you're a vintage fan as well. Cheers * love, Madison -xxoo
Thank you Lydia! I'm an avid & careful thrifter. -xxoo
ReplyDeleteHi thanks Erika! So glad that you were into this vibe, yes most thing here are 70s except the vintage bag. I love it!

ReplyDeleteaww, so glad you do too, these colours are bright and fun to play up! the shirt is a bit big, but I sort of love it that way. -xxoo
ReplyDeleteThanks Alexis! Yes, that mint colour of the belt is addicting to me on so many levels! hehe! -xxoo
