I heart Hart+Sew! My new first-stop-shop for vintage baby and toddler clothes. My husband thought I was absurd buying vintage duds for our dude, but when he saw the tiny gym shorts he made some pretty embarrassing baby squeals (and will probably ban me from Etsy for life for telling you that!)

I love you San Antonio
June 17th, 2010 · No Comments · Shop Online, Shop Vintage, Uncategorized
I was feeling a wee bit homesick the other day and found this awesome shirt from the 70s/80s on Etsy expressing the same sentiment I feel for my hometown–San Antonio, Texas. I totally didn’t appreciate SA when I was growing up, but now I realise just how much the South Texas culture has influenced me. [...]

Yesterday was an amazing day in Dublin–bright, sunny and perfect for hitting up the Dublin Flea Market. The market is really becoming an event and a great place to meet up with friends for lunch, a chat and a browse around the many goodies. I’m really loving the outdoor stalls that tended to have more [...]

Springtime Shopping
April 5th, 2010 · 3 Comments · Shop Online, Shop Vintage
April showers may bring May flowers, but it doesn’t mean you have to let the dreary weather get you down. Embrace the few hours of sunshine we get a week and dress sunshiny as soon as those clocks go forward…that’s my philosophy anyway. Here’s some pretty things that would perk up any old winter wardrobe.
1. [...]

♥♥♥ Coral beaded and [...]

Found at Dublin Flea – November
November 29th, 2009 · No Comments · Shop Dublin, Shop Thrift, Shop Vintage
Today was a pretty good day for the Dublin Flea and I managed to walk out having spent only €11. I think my husband actually spent more (on a bunch of books and a T-Rex keyring). There were loads of new sellers this month, many of them with high quality vintage goods (some for a [...]
