Here is a little preview of the 160+ new vintage dresses hitting the new webstore this week. It was incredibly hard to try and pick just a few so i'm sorry for the large amount of photos in this post! There really is just so many i love and i can't wait to see them all lined up beautifully in the new store, where you're only two clicks away from instantly making it yours as they're all available for buy it now prices. Prices for dresses on average will range between $55-$65, with more detailed and coveted pieces like full circle 50's inspired dresses and sequin embellished dresses ranging between $75-$119. I've also started sourcing from private sellers and suppliers who i have been lucky enough to cross paths with only a few months ago. It's the main and only reason i felt confident enough to open my own webstore, where i knew stock would have to be replenished on a weekly, if not daily basis, which is always something i felt i could never keep up with on my own. Even though their prices are more expensive the quality and designs that are available are just too good to miss, and as a 'vintaholic' (may not be a real word, meaning: one who is addicted to vintage) price doesn't ever cross my mind when i see something i absolutely love. It doesn't matter, if i like it, i know i just have to it. Luckily i've built a very strong relationship with one of my suppliers over the past few months who now lets me hand pick through their private archives, archives they keep only for a select few buyers. This is where the amazing vintage lace and crochet dresses, full length maxi's, collared full circle dresses and heavily sequined pieces come from - including the yellow strapless dress in my 'extraordinary' post. They're the pieces you can't find in some local opshop and they're the pieces you'll keep forever, so be sure to keep an eye out for them in the new store! They really are impossibly hard to let go of sometimes but i know how much someone will love them even more than i do.

I'll be uploading more photos of the new stock tomorrow. Tops, shorts, skirts, jumpsuits, jacket and coats, cardigans and jumpers - they're all yet to be seen to i just hope you all like them as much as i do! I've already uploaded the tops and bottoms to our Facebook page, which you can view here.

The new store is oh so close. It's all starting to feel very, very real...

C O M I N G S O O N !

Sorry for the super long post but it seems to be getting harder and harder to narrow down each collection to only a handful of items to post on my blog. I am honestly falling more and more in love with every item i sell. Possibly because it's coming into Summer and the vibrant and playful prints are quickly becoming more available to source on my op shopping trips. It's like Christmas here right now and i have hundreds of dresses backlogged for the Summer season so space in my office is running extremely low.

Yesterday we found out the owners of our place have decided to sell and therefor we have 4 weeks to find a new space. It's heart breaking and it couldn't have happened at a more inconvenient time but then again when is moving house ever convenient? We inspected a place yesterday and it could possibly be a blessing in disguise - the two office spaces are just huge and perfect for expanding my store with plenty of built in storage. Either way, it's going to be a stressful next few weeks but we'll make it work. I'm hopeful :)

In the meantime, i'll continue to be listing new stock and this is a little preview of the 120 items i have coming to the store on tomorrow night starting at 7pm! I've decided to list items in lots of 10 every 10 minutes so it's not such a mad rush to find your item within 120 pieces. A lot of girls were disappointed they missed out last time so i hope this creates a fairer chance for everyone. Let's hope it works. Everything will be set buy it now prices again and i have decided to trial tops, shorts, and jackets so i hope you all find something you love!

This heavily bead embellished dress with an open criss cross back is a sneak peek of some breathtakingly beautiful vintage pieces I've been sourcing from a private seller in the UK. They're quite expensive for me to source and i hardly make any profit on them but after seeing the detail, workmanship and quality of each piece can you blame me for getting them anyway? I would rather bring you all amazing vintage like this than make a lot of profit. Why? It's never been about money for me and i think people forget my intentions as to why i do this. To put it simply, i just love it. If i didn't i would have stopped a long time ago. People often say if you had the time you can just go op shopping yourself and find pieces like this (dress below) at a fraction of the price. If this was true i wish they would tell me where they go because out of all the years of op shopping i have never seen something like this sitting in a charity store.

And if you have, my advice would be to snap it up quickly and never let it go :)
