today is vintage day.

well HELLO there! it's been so long! almost a month, in fact, which is an absurdly long time to have gone without posting. there really isn't much excuse aside from the fact that i am currently working 6 jobs (yes. bartending, serving, dogsitting, interning at an arts commission, selling vintage clothes in my online shoppe (with an extra p and e), tiniest spark vintage, and running a local vintage store's ebay site) and am a little stretched for time. un peu.

so! with my first foray into blogging in over 3 weeks, i thought i'd mark the occasion by declaring it vintage blogging DAY. i will hereforth (word? now it is.) share with you, my dear readers, my most favorite of online vintage shops. most of them are on ebay, and offer the amazing potential for incredibly cheap finds -- that is, if your fellow vintage lover doesn't place a higher bid. away we go!!



i just happened across the urban collection this eventide, and have already begun bidding. she's got some pretty cute stuff, check out these hot 70s leather boots! currently running under ten buckaroos.

mama stone vintage is ALWAYS a reliable stop for the bestest of the best vintage finds. the only problem is, so many people already know about her store that the bids go up, up, and up before my paltry wallet has a chance to win. but i'm finicky -- if it's the right thing that i find, i'll spend over $50, but i usually reign myself in. if you're a little less thrifty, this is the store POUR TOI! regarde:

LOVE THAT COAT!!!!!!!!! gah. if only i didn't live in phoenix...i hope one of you win this.

noirohiovintage is a rockin' stop for awesome tops 'n' minidresses 'n' coats...none of which blogger is currently allowing me to upload. the eff!! this happened in my last post, too...are we only allowed two photos per post or something retahded like that? gah, LAME. anyway please go there, her stuff is too lovely, and while the prices do go up, up, up, you're more likely to snag a bargain there than mamastone.

next up, another favorite is cake shop vintage, home of sweet vintage finds. she's not that well-known (yet), so you can grab her stuff for less expensive prices. again, bloody blogger won't allow me to upload any photos, so yer gonna have to click the link and see for yerselves.

starlet vintage is another great stop, she currently has a mad-cute paisley minidress that i quite fancy, not unlike one that's up for bidding in my store, tiniest spark vintage.

lastly, i really enjoy ce petit coeur vintage, not only for her sweet clothes (i bought a gorgeous vintage pink camisole extraordinaire from her), but also because she has the BEST HAIR. and i love her freckles, she has the loveliest complexion. which is obviously not a reason to shop somewhere, but a nice perk when you're browsing the photos.

ok, hope you've enjoyed this vintage round-up! let me know if you win any sweet vintage items from these (or other) purveyors, i'd love to see them!
