Vintage: 20twenty

20twenty vintage has a great selection of vintage jute tote bags that I think would be perfect for the beach/pool/lake/nearest body of water (in my case, a quarry). Check out this shop's full selection of accessories here and keep your fingers crossed that I can find a reason to use a beach bag soon. It's almost July and I've yet to wear a bathing suit! Oh the shame.

Vintage: Tea and Tulips

pictured above: peter pan collar top $24; mint magic dress $34; somethin' special dress $38; gold dots skirt $30; purple pan blouse $32

There are so many great vintage finds for under $50 over at Tea and Tulips. If you like how these items are styled (what's not to love?), you'll also like shop owner Steffy's style blog Steffy's Pros and Cons. Shop her full collection of vintage gems here.

Today's roundup of Etsy faves features some really fun items. I'd like to use the push pins in my office, build a plate wall around the whale plates, and top a batch of these cupcakes with those adorable clay flags. And don't grey and aqua make a pretty pairing? I'd say so.

Gift Idea: Vintage Cake Servers

I think these charming, dipped vintage cake servers ($60) by Ladies & Gentleman would make a unique gift for the baker/newlywed/vintage collector in your life. The cake servers are available in three colors: white, mint, and charcoal. They vary in patina and are food safe. And now I want a piece of cake...

My Favorite Vintage

Two of my favorite items to buy vintage are boots and handbags. My Favorite Vintage happens to offer a great selection of both of these items, including the pair of boots I mentioned in last Friday's post. I feel like I can just smell the vintage leather as I type these words. Mmmmmmm.

That, my friends, is what we call dedication. Hope you like the picks. xo

Vintage: Red + White

peppermint stripe cotton mini ($27) via dear golden

1950's strawberry rose cotton sun dress ($59) via clever nettle

60's red stripe sailor blouse $75 via heart city vintage

Just some recent vintage favorites in red and white. Apparently, I need some red in my life, starting with that sailor blouse. So cute it hurts.

Vintage: Silent Sundays

flora elsa flutter dress $60/ pleated catherine midi skirt $52

1990's hannah floral sundress $62 / floral celia maxi dress $62

Silent Sundays is a vintage and designer shop founded by photographer Jamie Hopper and vintage guru and blogger Rhiannon Leifheit (both from Georgia!). Besides the fantastic styling, pretty lookbook, vintage and designer options (can we please talk about how much I want this dress), the model is really rocking the short hair and making me wonder why I ever grew mine out. Take a peaksie at all the prettiness here.

Yo Vintage!

floral playsuit/romper $58 / 1960's knit print shirt dress $68

red and white striped shorts $38 / pastel summer shirt $28

floral print midi skirt $32 / bow print navy dress $52

Happy Monday! I hope you had a good weekend. I thought we'd start off the week taking a look at the large and eclectic selection of vintage items at Yo Vintage. Above are a few of my favorites with the floral romper finding a place on my wish list. See anything you like?

Vintage: Prarie Seed

I really adore the styling over at Prairie Seed Dry Goods. Everything in the shop would fit perfectly in a French farmhouse themed space. These sweet bowls are especially charming and I'm definitely a sucker for milk glass. So sweet. 

Vintage Style Edible Buttons

Andie's Speciality Sweets makes the most incredible cake embellishments. These vintage style EDIBLE buttons kind of blew my mind when I first ran across them thank's to Etsy's new circle feature (have you been enjoying this feature? It's a great way to find new shops.) I think these buttons would look incredible on cupcakes or perhaps for a wedding cake? I kind of just want to get some to see what they taste like! Some other favorites in the shop include the chocolate candy mushrooms and these pretty edible butterflies. Wow! 

Vintage: Awoke on a whale heart

nucleus dress $65 / swiss dress $65

ellington blouse $28 / cavic blouse $32

heroine dress $69 / harper dress $65

I'm not sure I have the words to describe the pure awesomeness that is Awoke Vintage. I think it suffices to say that I would be totally content with my vintage clothing collection by simply scooping up everything this shop has to offer. Awoke is an Australian based vintage shop that ships to the U.S. (for under $10) and it has so many amazing dresses, I'm not sure which one to choose from and the fact that almost all of the dresses are elastic waisted makes them even more attractive. If you're a wear a lot of vintage dresses, you'll know what I mean. Normally I don't get stumped this badly, but seriously- I want this one and this one and this one and this one...

Vintage: Old Age

I'm pretty sure I could buy all of my vintage dresses this season at Old Age Vintage alone. This shop has a fantastic selection of dresses in all sizes so if you're in the market for a new vintage dress (when am I not in the market?) you should definitely check this shop out. See a style you like? This black and white number is on the top of my list.

Vintage: Na Nin for Need Supply Co.

Have you seen the recent collaboration between Na Nin Vintage and Need Supply Co?  It's a little match made in heaven if you ask me.

3/4 length sleeve with stripes $30 / oversized knit cardigan $44

wooden strap heels (size 37) $60 / navy station bag $70

S/S Ribbed floral dress (sold out thanks to me)

I sure do hope that Need Supply Co. continues with these vintage collaborations. It's an interesting idea to partner with a vintage buyer who has experience curating items.Obviously the idea worked for me since I purchased this dress without much deliberation (the back corset tie sold me). Check out the full selection of vintage items here.
