Get the Look

Friday, June 11th, 2010



Vintage fashion is so much fun and can be more creative than buying from the high street – I want to encourage playful dressing up as seen at my recent dressing up parties that really helped the ladies to see what colours and styles really worked for them.

I noticed when talking with customers who are new to vintage buying, there is some betwixting of how to style pieces. Vintage clothing can be a riot of wonderful colours and cuts – that’s what makes them stand out as vintage, but to a new burgeoning group of gals who are looking for some individuality in their wardrobe, not wanting to wear the same old brands from high street it can sometimes be a tricky look to pull off.

With this in mind I have created a new department in the shop – Get the Look – where I have done the styling for you! You can buy the total look and this way actually saves you money too!

I love blending old with new to get a great personalised look, and encourage buying top end quality designers rather than supermarket brands, with my Guest Designers, Suzywan, Ollie&Agnes who hand make current accessories – they team with the clothing to finish off the look perfectly.

If you would like some creative ideas, looking for a great outfit for a specific event or just want to chat fashion – Get in touch would love to hear from you!

…and we love it!!!

New to Extinct Design, the perfectly formed hand stitched felt heart cards from naomi made this!

We can’t quite put our finger on whether its the mix of layered colours on pretty material remnants or the perfect sizing and shiny buttons that make these stand out from the rest – whatever it is the combination just shines through…

I can’t decide which is my favourite! Tell which is yours!!

♥ Take a peek at my Guest Designer Page in Store ♥

Each card measures 5″ x 5″ blank inside, so perfect for all occasions or just sending someone a little note (always so nice to receive) better still there’s FREE POSTAGE on all cards!
