New Blog

I'm on wordpress now. I haven't already figured out everything yet, but please visit my new blog: the blueberry vintage blog. It's in german this time, but I will provide an english translation for all the new posts as soon as possible.

Sunday

Last Saturday was one of the best fleamarketing days I had experienced for quite a long time. I found lots of dresses, shoes etc. for my store, but also some good things for myself. On these pics I am wearing one of them. I really love this 1950's sundress with its gingham print. It's almost unbelievable, that I got it for only 2 €!

Dress: Fleamarket Find
Shoes: Vintage via Ebay
Bag: Thrifted

Chloe Sevigny for Opening Ceremony

Chloe Sevigny presented her third collection for Opening Ceremony on June 8th and I didn't notice until yesterday. While browsing Style.coms resort 2011 pages, as I was feeling a bit uninspired fashionwise and looking for some fresh looks, I stumbled across it and loved it immediately. The collection is very 1990's but in a good way. It consists of five dress styles in five different prints, and  is accompanied by pretty skyhigh platform shoes and matching tights in polka dots, leopard and grey. I liked the polka dot and floral dresses the most, but I have a thing for florals and dots. The collection is also pretty easy to get inspired by and will have me look around for something similar in thrift shops or flea markets.

Shop Update

Today I added a couple of vintage bags to my shop. You can find them here. I especially love the petit point and tapestry ones, but I already own quite a few of them, so I had to part with some.

I also still have all red, black and yellow (gold) things 5% reduced for as long as the soccer worldcup lasts. I ship internationally.

Rose Bloom

I apologize for being absent for such a long time. Today it was very lovely and hot outside. I wore my new swallow print dress and sat in the sun, ate fish, drank rosé wine, read french Vogue. What could have been better?

Dress: Zara
Belt & Shoes: thrifted

France

I took the day off from work yesterday to go to France to shop for groceries there. These pictures, however where not taken in France, but on a small parking lot at the road beside a vineyard, except the first one.

Dress: Vintage H&M dress from the early 90's

Choosing a name...

I am thinking about opening up my own vintage store and sell items independently from Ebay & Co. What confuses me mostly is picking a name, as I am selling under a lot of different names now. So I put up a little poll in the sidebar and am  asking you to let me know what you think. Thanks!
