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'

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!
