New to the shop vintage..

I recently found this beautiful vintage Hawaiin dress! I am in love..

it is defintly one of those "hard to part with" dresses for me!

It has a cute elastic backing with a zipper, which

will make it a little more adjustable in size.

I also added a few more vintage ties to the shop collection.

I will be taking all of my ties to Vintage Kitsch & flea in Madison next weekend at

the East side club. More info. on that soon!

I found a few with Neenah & Appleton tags. I soo wish more clothing

was made locally! I get so excited when I find something

with a local tag!

Shop hours are 10-6 today! I know it's a hot one out there..

Stay cool! xo!

Sewing & day dreaming... Happy Friday!

I have been sewing like crazy.. I feel like this blog has been all about my

wrap skirts & Rosie headbands! :)

Here are a few new skirts that are ready for farmer's market tomorrow!

The shop will be open 8-4 & we have a booth

in front of our shop!

I made up more of my Rosie headbands as well..
they are perfect for Sunmer!

Tie in the front for a vintage look in the back for a

traditional look!

I also have been day dreaming of finishing my vintage camper into

a mobile boutique & taking dainty daisies on the road.

It won't happen anytime soon.. but a girl can dream right?!

I do get to visit my camper from time to time! :)

Vintage trunk show for Art on the town.. featuring Andrea Smith.

I am so excited for our first Art on the town this Friday!

The shop will be open 6-9pm.. we are hosting a vintage/handmade trunk show

featuring designer/vintage collector Andrea Smith.

A little about Andrea..

Andrea has been collecting vintage everything for 14 years... before it was really cool to do so. Besides loving to wear vintage, she now also reuses vintage jewelry, fabric, and beads and makes it into new, up-cycled modern feminine jewelry and hair accessories. She is also a photographer and librarian.
