ok, so I know you’ve probably heard of Vitamininmotion - she’s pixie cute, kinda craftsy and pretty darn fashion-fearless. I ran across her again today and have to give her a shout out. Seriously - everything she does is spot on! she’s on weardrobe…
who knew you could make white pumps so darn cute?

Wow! And you won’t here me throw that round lightly, but WOW! we have some great offering this week on our eBay site, EZPickinz VIntage! We decided we can’t stand it any longer and have opened the vault of our Vintage Fall Collection to give everyone a sneak peek of what will be coming in the cooler weeks ahead!
Head over to the Ebay store EZPickinz for this and so much more!
Can’t say why, but I really want to check out these super tall platform sandals from Old Navy. They have a sorta-40s wedgie style that draws me in, I think. Now, I would wait till they go on super sale if I was to even get them as they are ‘faux patent’, or in realspeak - plastic.
These fresh lace up oxfords do the trick, white leather is a bit unexpected but surprisingly versatile and these authentic 80s vintage ones are in excellent condition. We love the dots and flowers cut outs! Get ‘em while you can!
We just love vintage Famolares - how cool are all leather strappy wedge platforms that are also super comfortable?! Can’t find these very often and especially essentially unworn…
and lots more - check it out…EZPickinz Vintage, our eBay store. 
My mind is already thinking ahead of the fall… as is everyone’s! And I don’t know if you are like me, but each season I try to form a ‘look’ I am going to have. It makes it easier to gather the few pieces missing in your wardrobe and have fun mixing and matching. One year my fall idea was Fair Island sweaters w/wool pleated Pendleton skirts and knee socks…yeah, that one didn’t really pan out. In any event I love this gal’s fearless mix of 40s era and sparkle…now where to get a sequinned cardi…
Dress: Gap, on sale: $32.99 , Ankle strap platform sandals: Born last year $89, Cuff: Vintage Taxco Mexican silver, thrifted last year $35 (ouch - but I had to have it!), Necklace: I made this, long sterling silver chain - Alexander’s Jewelry supply, about $5 charms; a skeleton key from the BF’s grandmothers house that STILL WORKS to open her front door, and a 70s turquoise star and moon pendant, thrifted about $2
Ok, so its still not super hot where I am, dunno what the deal is. Today its supposed to actually go over 70 degrees, but today is also the day I want to wear my boots. Why do these things always clash?! The day I want to wear a fun sundress I freeze, and the day I feel the need to layer and bust out the boots it’s hot. Ah well, there’s always this lass who seems to have both camps covered:
P.S. how cute is the jewelry holder on the wall?!
love this no-fear combo! I’m always a sucker for gingham, even tho it’s so picnic. Maybe that’s why I like it - I always think of summer outdoors!
thx to DW’s photostream on Flickr!
Dear Coveters,
Recently we were lucky enough to have a lovely Emilio Pucci for Formfit Rogers bell sleeve beauty in an AMAZING shade of coral! Well, we are pleased to say this rare Pucci has found a new home! An avid and obviously elegant collector was very happy to be the one to snap it up! She shared with us a lovely story about the meaning and milestones that clothing can mark in our lives…
She writes “…it is a rare print to find indeed. My grandparents owned a winter home in Palm Springs from 1975-1986. It was my favorite place to visit and I have always adopted my Grandmother’s style and taste in clothes and furniture. (Mid-Century Modern)
