c is for camera love

from now on...


♥ camera love ♥to say thank you to all of you who send in pictures wearing Vintage Lover there will be a some love for you too.
for each picture you send in i will put your name in a box and at the end of the month draw one lucky lover's name to get a present from me.(1 photo = 1 entry, if you do a layout as Marli has done in the past, you get 2 entries per photo)

entries for this month close on 30 september!

i will contact the winner and their parcel of love will be sent to them via mail. (so if you live far away you won't miss out!)
since this month is the first month i'm entering everyone who has sent in pictures up until now. 
this initiative will happen once a month from now on. 
if you don't want to wear the clothes, take some pics of someone else wearing it! 
so get cracking on those pictures! 
i know taking photos is hard work, but you never know you might be the lucky lover this month! ♥


c is for customer

a little while ago i posted this bright beautiful pattern jersey.
everyone wanted it, but deone is the lucky owner of this jersey.
and it looks amazing on her, it's almost as cute as she is, and it works so well with her dark hair.
i think this jersey found it's perfect match, it's bold and fun, just like deone.
and she is living it up, just like this jersey deserves, it is the life of the party!
awesome job deone!
you are rocking the vintage look, a real vintage lover! 


c is for customer

this is adine, you might recognize her from her previous customer post.
she bought the amazing black rose jersey from me.
at the last city bowl market she bought her "mermaid handbag" (i thought this is the cutest name ever for a bag! very appropriately named as the little metal discs the bag is made of feel like fish scales)
she looks so cute in her photo's, and rocking her rose jersey again!
almost head to toe in vintage lover.
i love how she has accessorized her bag with a charm or two to make it her own.
well done adine!
you are rocking your mermaid bag and your jersey, i love the look!
and best of all i finally got to meet you, you are just as sweet as your e-mails!
you are a true vintage lover, keep up the amazing looks! 



c is for customer

this is stacey, she bought this awesome pink and black jersey from me.

i love the little shots on the side of the main pic, it looks awesome!
thank you for putting all this effort into your photograph.
this is quiet an awesome look, plus best of all it will keep you warm on these cold spring days.

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! ♥

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
