n is for new

the spring surprise is...

beautiful reworked vintage shirts! 

they can be worn in different ways, as a normal shirt, with a belt, tied up or open with a vest. 

they are beautiful and one of a kind! 

no one will have a shirt like yours, it is reworked and perfect for summer.  they will be R60 each. ♥the sale deal will not apply to these garments. they will be priced individually at R60 •  the styles of the shirts will be similar, but not the patterns, as each one will be made of a vintage shirt. every shirt will be unique and one of kind. i will start posting them next week :) ♥

the second part of the surprise is shiny and new hand made jewelry! cute little photo frames to go around your neck, any picture you like can be slotted in them. there will be various designs to choose from.they will also be R60 each. ♥the new jewelry range will also be posted next week.

the deal is, you can either mix and match with garments in the collections on the sale deal = R100 for two items (1 clothing item and one jewelry, or both jewelry)

you asked for it, summer and shiny is here! ♥

l is for love

from now on...

for every item you purchase your name will go into a box, at the end of the month a name will be drawn.

and one lucky customer will receive some customer love!

i will contact you and your surprise will be sent to you via mail.

this will happen every month and will be a permanent part of vintage lover.

just because i love my customers and we all deserve presents even when it's not our birthday! ♥

brand new reindeer jerseys, with button and pattern detail. the are new - never been worn only available in a size small, there are only 2 of each and they are R70 each ♥ * please note, the blue ones have sold out, only the white and orange ones are available

s is for spring!

the first of september has finally arrived, which is spring day.

but here in cape town it was everything but a spring day, stormy, cold and very wet!

but not to fear!

next week i'm giving you guys a spring surprise!

this will happen on wednesday, i will still keep you updated on the time.

hope you all wore something black in support of the rhino poaching issue, and hopefully something vintage like the vintage lovers that you are!  ♥

o is for outfit

i have never done an outfit post before, so here goes there is always a first time for everything!

saturday at the city bowl fashion market, i got this fabulous anchor necklace from nicci saint bruce from http://www.citykidssting.com/ she owns vamp clothing (beautiful clothes and kick ass jewelry) go check them out at shopvamp.com/

i really quiet love it, it's just too cute.

and cookie monster i found a while back, an awesome reversible hoodie.

(yes i am a hoodie connoisseur of sorts, don't know why, i just love them, maybe it's the inner gangsta in me)

i think they work together as cookie monster is like a big blue ocean that the anchor swims in.

two totally different styles mashed together, that's what i'm about :)

i'm not just a vintage lover, but a girl who loves clothes ♥

s is for sneak peak, city bowl market 27 august 2011

a week before the market i started giving sneak peeks of some of the garments that would be available at the market.

it made everyone excited and it made packing for the market a lot easier!

market day was a great success, i had loads of fun and i got to meet so many of the fans.

it was fabulous!

i really enjoy meeting you guys and seeing you so excited over new items.

all the items that you see in the pics were sold out!

along with never seen before stock, so next time come early and don't miss out.

i can't wait for the next one in september, see all you vintage lovers then! ♥
