Taking the Scary Step...

I've had a lot of fun, lately, going through my closet & collections to find garments I've stashed away. I've been needing a HUGE inspiration fix in the past few weeks while I slowly gain my confidence to take my online business into the Brick & Mortar world.  Every piece of vintage jewelry, clothing, knick-knacks, etc. I've bought gives me fuel to keep moving forward. I want others to feel inspired by what I'm lucky enough to own.
I'm scared to death and a lot of times feel the need to quit and stay working towards other peoples dreams.  My need to share with others how amazing vintage can be keeps me going forward.
My ultimate goal is to create a place where people can come and gather inspiration. I would LOVE for the pieces I own to be used for other's creativity!
I'm scared to death. I've got a business meeting today. I'm trying to calm my nerves. Hopefully my next post will be filled with my new prospects & a better path towards my store dream 💗

Savor the Different...

One goal I had when starting my business was to make it very clear that I only showcase things that inspire something in others. Whether it be a mask, glove, bustier, I want a customer or client to feel SOMETHING when seeing a piece I have for rent or sale. If you love an item, hate it, so be it, just don’t be indifferent. One thing I've learned is that to be indifferent to fashion is one of the saddest ways to live. Like Bill Cunningham stated above, "Fashion is the armor to survive the reality of everyday life". The clothes I wear, the eyeliner I carefully draw on, the way I style my hair, all of it is to prepare myself for what lies ahead. This may sound shallow or vain, but I do see it as a shield. If fashion armor for you means an audacious Red Maribou Feather coat or your favorite concert hoodie, then by ALL MEANS wear it with intent! Cover yourself in pieces that invoke a REACTION! Disgust, elation, intrigue, and more! I absolutely LIVE for those wh...

The One Phrase That Makes Me Cringe & How We Can Change It...

"I love vintage clothing, but I don't know when I'd wear it" Whenever someone makes that comment to me, my heart breaks a little.  The answer is that you can ALWAYS find a time & place to wear vintage!  The key is to have CONFIDENCE when you wear something outside of your comfort zone! Even if you're not confident, FAKE IT! Pretend you're playing a role until that confidence becomes the truth! I grew up wearing things, not necessarily vintage, that always caused people to talk, sneer or poke fun at me.  That's was people do when they don't understand you or, let's face it, life in general. Well guess what? That's NOT your problem! If they don't like it, great! They don't have to wear it! That leaves more amazing clothing for you! Photo by Kelsey Jenson Photography One of my favorite things about wearing vintage is that I can incorporate those pieces into my newer outfits! Whenever I buy clothing, new or old, I always as...
