Hiatus

This blog entry is a little late and I'm not entirely sure why! I have been avoiding blogging for no reason at all (No exams, harrowing hectic schedule or trips away) Here are some dresses and finds I have had up for sale over the previous week.

1. Lavender Cropped Boyfriend Blazer. 2. Folky White Tunic 3. Pastel Floral Shift Dress

4. '90s Off The Shoulder Dots Dress 5. AhoySailor! Nautical Gainsbourg Dress 6. Vintage Brown Suede Heels.


The nautical dress was a brilliant find. It thought it had a Parisian look to it, and it reminded me of Charlotte Gainsbourg. I looked through a few images online of Charlotte and Voila!!.... there she was wearing something quite similar. The dress has now been sold, and it was lovely to find that a friend in Wellington won the dress. It's always nice to know that your favourite pieces are going to a good home.

Seaoflove Vintage is going on a bit of a hiatus. A friend of mine wants to clear her wardrobe out, so for the next few weeks i will be helping her out by selling her things online. This means she can actually fit all her belongings into her suitcase to go home for the summer.

-

I also have just started a nice new full-time job, so that will be distracting me a little as well. I still have a clothes rack adorned in lots of pretty tops, dresses & goodies. So before you know it, i will be selling a few pieces again.

Goodnight pretties ♥

Lovely Little Accessories.

1. Coco Chanel Style Navy & Gold Shoulder Bag 2. Floral Tapestry Mirror Purse

3. Tan Tooled Leather 70s Folk Coin Bag


4. Two Tone Leather Lace Up Brogues 5. Minty Green Cutesy Bandage Shoes

. . .

This week these items are all up for sale, except for number 2 (for now)

Usually I am very good at selling the items i love the most. I just remind myself that I need to make a living and that everything will be going to a good home. However, I still can't part with the little embroidery 'Floral Tapestry Mirror Purse'. I don't own anything like it and it reminds me of a few of last season's pieces made by MonkiGirl, which featured on LiebeMarleneVintage.

I went treasure hunting today and didn't have too much luck. My sister found a brilliant cape, a cane basket (perfect for taking to The Farmer's Market), a black crochet cropped poncho and a pretty art print of a bohemian girl with flowers in her hair. I found myself a quaint little wooden bedside table. It is white and has a pretty floral cut out detail around the top. I am trying not to accumulate any 'stuff' because i will be leaving overseas next year, but it was simply too nice to leave!

Summer Lovin'

. . .

Happy bidding.

Pretty In Pink

This is a gorgeous dress with pretty and subtle detailing. It reminds me of the lattice dress by Opening Ceremony (as pictured) It is a pale soft power pink colour with a white patterned print. The dress has box shaped cut out detailing at the back. Where it buttons up are little pink buttons that have little flowers on them

This dress would be so nice worn in the summertime on a hot day with daisies in your hair!

It is up for sale now!

Sneak Peek

1. Cool Kid Neon Body Con Dress. 2. Peter Pan Peachy Keen Blouse

6. 'Alexa' Tartan Slouch Shirt' 7. Pretty White Lace Tank

8. Grunge & Glamour Acid Wash Denim Jacket.

9. Navy&White Check Slouch Dress. 10. Bohemian Girl Denim Vest.

.............

These are a few of the items i will be selling this week. This week I seem to be selling quite a few things that have more of the grunge look, as opposed to really soft, pretty items. There is lots of tartan, acid wash, denim and lace. I have sold a few white lace tanks in the past and they have been really popular (I think this has alot to do with Lonely Hearts Club making alot of lace garments lately) They are getting harder to find, so this is my last one in stock. I think my favourite item for the week is the 'Peter Pan Peachy Keen Blouse'. I would love it, but i have to resist the temptation and let it go to a good home.

I hope you like my finds this week

This week. .

A few of the things I'm selling this week. The floral blouse has a pussy-bow necktie and is a classic NZ piece made by 'Lady Lichfield'. I hope someone likes the little striped day dress with the white collar as much as i do. The floral tea party necklace is a one off, so you won't see it again. If you liked the mini harmonica necklace from a few week's ago, i will be selling my last one soon.

P.S. If you have seen the dreamy movie 'Coco Avant Chanel' you will see why i like the simple slouchy 'Sailor Stripes' dress so much.

Thank-you Alice for modeling.

You might like her too

Last year over Easter i was a lucky locket and got to see the beautiful siblings Angus and Julia Stone live. Angus was very shy and Julia danced like a pixie. She wore a pretty red vintage dress, with flowers in her hair. Her dresses and hair pieces are enough to inspire any vintage lover. She plays the trumpet and writes delicate, sad songs.

Their EP 'Chocolate & Cigarettes' is lovely, i suggest you have a listen. You might like it too.

This week . .

As you can see, i have lots of blouses, tops and day dresses for sale this week. I went on a little road tripping adventure yesterday and found plenty more goodies. I will share them with you next week.

Floral Frenzy

I love floral prints and always have. There is hardly a day that I'm not wearing something floral - be it a dress, or even just a ring (Unless i am at work, where i have to wear ALL black)

The floral skirt above is one of my favourite floral finds, yet it is just a tad too small for me. It reminds me alot of some of the glorious items in Chloe Sevigny's first collection for Opening Ceremony (Ahhh, Chloe). Also, check out the lovely shorts by Jaci Bailey.

This week . . .

1. Hot Pink Slouchy Tee. 2. Nautical Blues Vintage Dress. 3. Floral Garden Circle Skirt. 4. Daisy Chain Gingham Dress. 5. Plaid Bow Tie Shirt. 6. Polka Dots Skater Dress.

And, of course, there will more items up for sale too.

Enjoy!

Little Golden Goodies

Here are some little accessories i am (a tinsy bit reluctantly) selling at the moment:

The little daisy ring has a little creamy pearl in the middle. This ring reminds me of some of the pretty and bohemian jewels and gems they show in Russh Magazine, like the jewellery label 'LucyFolk'.

I found the pretty little golden handbag in a thrift store in Australia. After I had purchased it, I was flicking through Nylon magazine and came across Sofia Coppolas collection for LV and realized my new find was super similar! You can see her version here.

I adore the bow barrette. It is a big and pretty bow that has a golden pearl detail in the middle. I never get around to wearing something like this, so it is now up for sale. I hope someone else adores it too.

Be My Black Balloon

This leopard print jacket was the first thing to catch my eye whilst thrift shopping a few months ago. It is made from glittery gold sparkling fabric, has a 'pussybow' style neck tie and cutesy little puffed shoulders. Most of all, it reminds me of Alison Mosshart

She always looks effortlessly cool and not too much like a stereotypical hipster! Her band,The Kills, played in NZ a few months ago. It looked like a lot of fun.

I didn't make it to the show, living in the South Island doesn't help with gig going (in regards to international bands!) Does anyone know if her new band 'The Dead Weather' is any good?

The 'Alison' Leopard Jacket will be up for sale soon. So, if you like it, keep checking back!

Sing me a folk song

Golden Gems.

I have had one of these necklaces for ages and i still think it is the coolest necklace on the block. It is a little harmonica pendant, that actually works. So you can play some Bob Dylan to the world, whenever you like! The pendant is a silver colour with golden bits around it. It has 'Woodstock' engraved on the front. It is so folky and cute! I will be selling two of these soon.

Happy Bidding X
