Have you seen our new vintage wear lately?

Petals and Leaves

We have settled down (more or less) into the new apartment. There are still cartons lying behind the couch, we haven't gotten our coffee table/dining table/work desk (yes, it's going to be a 3-in-1 space saver), but yes, we can call it our home.

Finally gotten down to shooting some new vintage wear loots last weekend. Here's 3 of them first - of floral and leaves prints. I will be listing more dresses before I leave for my Taiwan trip on this Friday!!! Looking forward to it coz it's my FIRST Taiwan immigration stamp in  my passport (horrors!!) And who doesn't welcome holidays? And I'm meeting up with my family for the tour. Do I need another reason to be excited?

So if you want to get anything without having to wait for too long (I'll be back on 30th Oct), my last mail run is on this Thursday!

Unleash your Bohemian Spirit

Hi there!

I promised more vintage wear and here they are. Please click on 'Vintage Wear' tab to view them.

This time, I found a couple of pieces that fits me perfectly! There's even a classic polka dots one that I simply adore! But Mr. LTC said he wouldn't be caught with me in that dress. Not a very supportive hubby right? I was alright with him wearing Fei Yue sneakers when we go out...both pairs! 

Vintage wear may mean passe designs to some, but they can be classics as well. What was 'out' years ago can be the next big thing tomorrow. Just look at polka dots. I don't know any girls who don't go crazy over polka dots. Need i mention bright colour blocks of the eighties?

For gals who rush out to fashion chains & deck out in the latest fashion must-have, sure, you may be trendy. But stylish is where you can put together an one-of-a-kind ensemble that gives you an identity.  Throw on a vintage item, by all means, mix and match with other trendy stuff and old just became new! 

Japanese Vintage Wear

Hi there!

Vintage wear is now in store! Making the debut are some japanese vintage dresses & skirt. 

Each piece is one-of-a-kind and are in wonderful condition. There is no visible stains nor tears, zips are working smoothly, buttons (if any) are securely sewn on (however buttons do show signs of age). 

Some of them are deadstock while others may be pre-loved. Either way, each piece has been carefully selected and checked for flaws. They aren't pristine due to age but the slight imperfections are what that give it its yesteryear charms.

Vintage wear shows really excellent and detailed sewing. Nothing beats the neat tiny stitches, tightly sewn hooks and impeccable workmanship on clothes of yesteryear. A far cry from the wide stitches, loosely sewn buttons that are seen on mass market clothes nowadays.

I hope I can find something that fits me the next time I go scavenging.
