Winter Fashion │ Spring Fashion

Much like the rest of the fashion world, I tend to work with items in seasons about 4-6 months ahead.

I realize I've been (constantly) lamenting the lack of cool weather and rain -- and now that we finally have it, I'm focused on Spring items ... and Winter hasn't even begun.

Never fear. I have a perennial love for sweaters and wool and leather and denim, so that will never go away. Even in the middle of summer. My shop is perpetually "winter" stocked, so let that make you happy. And me happy, too!

This gorgeous 1950s cowichan (style) cardigan is coming to the shop soon. While I had intended it to be in today, the zipper needs some work (an overhaul. i.e. new zipper) which is unfortunate. But, once it is fixed and working, it'll be in the shop immediately.

And as for the Spring things, well, if I'm not listing sweaters and denim, I'm listing silks, linens and dresses!

This stack has linen and silk and lots of comfy, soft blouses
and shirts that you will want as soon as the temps begin to rise again. For us here in NorCal, that could be as early as February. But, hopefully not! I want sweater weather for as long as possible.

So, recap: I stock sweaters year round. Have no fear. And Spring will be here in three-ish months, so linens and silk and soft, flowy blouses are in the shop, ladies. As well as dresses ... naturally.

Guys, I'm always looking out for you, too. Short sleeve 80s polos and plaids, along with one-of- a-kind tshirts and denim, it's all there my good friends. It's all there for Spring.

Meanwhile, I've got tons of guys sweaters, plaid flannels and Pendleton plaid shirts available, along with usa made 501 jeans and jackets. Visit today! ◄ And see what I've got.

Happy December, all of you. Happy Wintering. ♥

Perennial Vintage Turns Ten

Winter Sweaters in the Shop It's hard to believe for me, but on November 30th, 2010 I began my foray into the world of Etsy vintage. A lot has changed since then. And I don't mean just in the world. I mean in Etsy itself. When I opened shop a decade ago, there were so few sellers compared to now, and things sold much faster because there was such little competition. But competition is good. It makes us more creative and promotes grit: both of which are necessary for growth and success. And I have to say, this has been THE MOST creative, fun, rewarding, and exciting work I've ever had. I took a hobby and learned to make a little profit from it on the side. Even though this is a business for me now, selling vintage is still my hobby. While it's nice to monetarily benefit from it, it isn't the only reason I do it. The reason I sell vintage is simple: I love vintage.  I want to preserve it, research it, wear it, love it, talk about it, and naturally, I want to sell  i

Vintage Cardigans │ Fashion Cardigan Love

I seriously have a good "issue" with cardigans. Yes, they're in. But, they've always been in. And this one that I found a few weeks ago is no exception. It's straight from the 1970s, but exactly what's back in today with the almost bell-like wide sleeves, hood, and Aztec/Native American pattern. Hate to say it, but I'm keeping this one. Of course, if I find more (and choose NOT to keep those too, ha!) then I'll sell those. See how great it goes with jeans and boots from today? (both from Target.com by the way). The belt is vintage too! (pic 4) Best part? Cardigan was $4, belt was $2. Ooh la la! Love this outfit...

Vintage Cowichan Cardigan Sweater

So, I have this thing for vintage sweaters. That has been established. And I definitely have an affinity for wool sweaters, particularly of the quality variety, i.e. Pendleton, Filson, etc. I was lucky enough (believe me, I was hyper-ventilating when I saw this) to snag this last year at a thrift store. It's hand made, made of wool, no tags. Looks to be from the 1960s. Of the Cowichan style (a native-American tribe, which I believe is Canadian. Their sweaters are what began a movement of quality, thick, warm, amazing sweaters) this thing is THE warmest sweater I have ever owned. This one isn't for sale. But, if you want one just as good, may I recommend you to Filson. Click here ◄ for some gorgeous Cowichan sweaters. Of course, Pendleton ◄ has some great ones too. And for the right price, you have buy them on Etsy ◄. You'll have yours for nearly a life-time or more. Happy New Years Eve and Day, dear readers ...
