Vintage Items

Since Flashbax was closed a year ago, there's been a shortage of cool, authentic vintage clothing in the Wilmington area. I did find a little gem of a shop at "Alleycat's." Currently, they're located off Oleander Drive, behind Mellow Mushroom, although the owner told me that she's searching for a new space downtown.. I found 6 dresses, a shirt, a lovely jewelry box for my friend Jordan, and a cookbook for men from the 60s. Very humorous writing.

My new dresses: 
The dress I'm wearing is one of my special finds, too.
Pip wanted to model my shirt
I've also become more interested in collecting vintage gloves; for the evening, day, etc. I purchased these two stunning pairs of gloves from "aMuse," a cute little shop downtown that sells vintage and vintage inspired clothing:

The little lines on my left hand are actually on my hand, not the glove. They're from eyeliners at work :) The gloves are in perfect condition.


I was also in the market for some sweet heels. I found them at Goodwill. 8 pairs for $34!!





My new/old book from Alleycat's:

This is how I feel after I complete one blog.
