Blackbird Attic Styled Outfits

Sheree of It's Not That Deep, stopped by last week to style some outfits using Blackbird Attic stock. As is the business of consignment, many of these pieces already sold! But I hope to keep up with this feature.. so here goes:
 

Floral is a huge trend for spring and summer. All types of florals from big prints to floral denim. This cotton dress from the 80's is casual enough to wear to the park, but would also be great for a bridal/baby shower or brunch. It has sold, but we have many items in the shop with a floral print.

Here is another look that sold, but take this styling tip and only half tuck in half your top. As for the skirt, from nautical to sporty, stripes are in!

When you think of a warm weather afternoon a picnic is usually involved and with that comes gingham.. always a warm weather trend and staple. This top is actually a tunic/dress, but could be worn in a few different ways as seen here.

Here's another simple style tip. Wear colored denim to make your outfit more interesting.

 

Lace is all over the runways. Here is a dressy lace top, dressed down with a basic tank and vintage shorts.

Another stripe look in a totally different style. This outfit went to one lucky lady from NYC. Our merchandise is always moving, so stop in whenever you can to check and see what's new before it's gone!

Lastly, here's an interesting look, this skirt has an extra panel of fabric with a hidden pocket. The top and bag are also available for sale.

That's it for now, hope you enjoyed this new feature, there will be more to come!

A Few Snapshots

Just a few snaps of some new items in the shop. Also there is one happy customer! Remember, if you send us your pics wearing something from Blackbird Attic, you'll get 10% off next time you shop ; ).

New (Old) Jewelry at Blackbird Attic

Here are some of the newest jewelry additions to Blackbird Attic. These are from an old line of jewelry that sold in the 80s and 90s. All priced very reasonably between $8-$13.

Two years, it's been!

Ahh sorry for the delay in updating this thing. It's just so much easier to post photos on facebook and have that be that, but I know blogging is a whole other world and some people don't even check facebook. So yeah, here is a post for you blog readers. (and I will try to write more, I promise).

It has officially been two years that Blackbird Attic has been in business. April was the marker to be exact. Things have progressed nicely. I have hundreds of consignors and now, an easier way for them to check their inventory online. (By the way, I am always accepting new consignors, read more about that here). I also have an inventory page where unfortunately I do not (and probably will not) have many (if any) photos, but the brand names and sizes are there to give you an idea of what is in stock!And that is still exciting, right? I think so.

Hm what else is new.. what else.. well, I finally have a sign! It's been a work in progress and a long time coming, but now people shouldn't have any trouble finding me ; ).

So.. photo time:

I bought black balloons once again to commemorate (they add a sort of dark festiveness). The art of the month was created by Double Parlour out of San Fransisco and is available for purchase untill June 4th. The sign was cut and painted by Kalene Rivers. I served a white wine spritzer with strawberries, along with some cheese/crackers, and delicious cupcakes made by my friend who is available to make cupcakes for your event as well ! I ended the night at a friend's house with a little sparkler show. Lot's of smoke, little sparkler action, but a fun time indeed. Nice weather, year two, bring it on.
