THERE'S SOMETHING ABOUT MARY

2012-02-11T17:48:00.000-08:00

You know I love a print party. And Topshop. And anything Mary Katrantzou. So this is the perfect party outfit for me (any of them will do).

Anja is the cute blue haired, stylish owner of clever nettle - a photographer extraordinaire, a creator, a maker, a do-er. I'd heard of Anja's etsy store before I moved in next door, but it took me a while to figure out what she was up to in her studio. Anja's since moved out (and about to open up a new studio with Megan from Summerland) but is always updating her store(s) and blog - a definite daily dose of inspiration.

Hey Sarah,

My order arrived today. you guys might seriously be my favorite online vintage site - the clothes are beautiful (online and in person - hell, my order even smelled great, lacking that often vintage musty smell), your styling of the clothes is refreshing, the site's copy snappy and clever, and the shipping is super quick.

Just sayin'

...in no particular order:

1) Purple hair. Dying mine from white to a near perfect granny rise.

2) Pony skin leopard leather jacket. A perfect ~~not a practical~~ winter coat.

3) The bright colored clutch bag. Impractical and practical all in one! Genius.

4) Metallic shoes. In my sister's words "insane". I think she means the good insane, but maybe she means insane insane, which means I must have these Prada rip offs to slodge round in the Portland rain v soon.

5) And this one. On repeat. The outfits! Those girls! Yeahhhh!

SECRET SHOP: CHA CHA CHA VINTAGE

2011-08-10T13:51:00.000-07:00

....a few years ago, when I worked in London I met some lovely ladies Ruth and Zara. Ruth owns an amazing vintage shop, down a back alley in North London. She has amazing taste, and curates her shop to perfection. The best thing about Cha Cha Cha Vintage, is that it is exactly how all my favorite vintage shops are - off the beaten track, somewhere where you are always going to find *that* perfect piece and they're cheap (very rare in London) - bargainise brilliance. They're about to launch their website to sell worldwide - and I can't wait. For now they're selling through their Facebook page (the lovely Zara is styling and modeling - cute!) where you can buy your chosen piece and get it delivered to your doorstep - yessssssss! I ordered this gorgeous dusty pink crochet dress (LDN>PDX!) in these photos a few weeks back and we're about to feature it in our next lookbook; LATE SUMMER (coming soon!)

Thanks Cha Cha Cha, we heart you!
