Photos from a vintage store! Blog no: 40! (we're come along way baby)


These photos i took from a second hand store in my hometown. it was so cultered, there was an amazing atmosphere when entering the shop! made a payment on a vintage dresser for my bedroom (since mine is broken)! there was dozens of pottery, glass dishes, kettles, bottles, tins, old cameras, irons, chairs and books. this shop was a collectors dream! next time i'm visiting i'll have more money and i'll take my friend or my nana. xo elisa

Customized black jacket into tailcoat! Blog no: 38!

Hi bloggers, readers, friends! today i go some sad news that one of my firends from queensland died in a car crash and i am very sad for him. This weekend one of my best friend comes down and visits me! yay and i have a big party for another one of my friends! any who this is some of my costume for the party! i used an old black jacket i brought from an OP shop acturally i think i was given this for free...? i don't know?! anywho that how long i've had it! i drew out a chalk shape of wear i wanted it to sit and i cut 2cm around the shape. it's harder to sew on the tail coat points and center back line. I replaced the buttons to a more flashy golden kind. i added a small floded over triangle out of the crap fabric to create a small buckle at the back. sorry about the back photos.
