Photoshoot

I had a big photo shoot the other weekend with the lovely photographer, Courtney Scalzo (she has great rates, takes great photos, and brought me a model!), so that I could get started on my online boutiques. It's hard to do a photo shoot while also running shop, so thankfully I had help from fellow vintage-seller and friend Mikhaila of All the Pretty Birds. I actually met her because she brought in some clothing to consign and I found we had a lot in common. There is a little backyard behind my shop, it's pretty run-down, but it offered an interesting backdrop to my photos only a door away.

Courtney is in the process of editing photos for me, and while she does that, I am measuring clothing and posting them on my online boutique and Etsy! I used to sell my soap and other bath products on Etsy so I figured I would do a little of both with my new endeavor. If anyone has any feedback for me let me know! Otherwise, stay tuned as I update with new items.

A Retro Summer

In July I was fortunate enough to get some free photography and a model for some look-book shots. First here are a couple shots taken of me in the store..


Ah I don't look my happiest here, but I still like this photo. I'm wearing a thrifted dress and some vintage boots I got for sale ($10!) at Urban Outfitters.


And here I am looking all 70's in the store doorway.


We took this shot next to the Electric Windows building and with a slight view of Mt Beacon. Beacon is a pretty pretty place. This sailor dress is still available for sale!


This is probably my favorite shot, taken right at the end, I am glad we got it. The red and green tones make great contrast and she is wearing my mom's old shoes that I love.


This was taken on an old well behind a historical building in Beacon. Sadly the sun kind of washed her out.


Lastly, another shot I love, taken inside the store. This dress is also still available.

That 70's Bash

Had fun dressing the part for a 70's themed birthday party this past weekend. I borrowed a friend's dress and paired it with some flats I bought on Etsy. Pretty legit, right?



My boyfriend, a true 70's baby, felt in his element. He found this great collared jacket at a nearby thrift store, paired with a shirt from Blackbird Attic and some of his pants and dress shoes.



Everyone else has a great time as well. I vote more 70's themed parties in the future.
