Next week starts the official first day of Fall – September 22nd.

Why not get a jump on those Fall fashions now and set the tone for stylish, retro chic in your area.

This season has lots of fur (or faux fur) lots of classic plaids, jewel tones as well as neutrals.

But of course, Classic is always fashionable!

Take a look at this peppy video and start planning your Fall/Back-to-School football and bonfire wardrobe.

Then stop by Lucy's Closet for lots more ideas!

It's no secret that I love the 1970s.....love the funky music, love the style, love the memories (yes, I am old enough to remember it!)

So I made a little video featuring the 1970s era items in my shops.

The music on the video is really funky! Click on the kitty to the left to see the video.

To see the funky items in this video, "come back pretty baby" to my shops.

Summer Vacation for Mommy!

The kids are back in school. As much as I love them, this is always wonderful time of year for me…..its like Summer Vacation for Mommy! I climb out of the "Mom" role for a few hours each day and crawl down to my "Lair"!


My “Lair” is the basement of my house out of which I run my business. It is also where I warehouse all the stuff I sell. It is called the “Lair” because it beckons to all who love vintage. Once they get down into it, it is a dangerous place; way too many goodies to pass any up and way too many things make it difficult to walk! I would guess that I have only about 1-2% of my "Lair" merchandise listed on my sites.


I have headed back down to the “Lair” and started to organize (though it does not look organized in the photo!) and plan new merchandise listings. I hope to start photographing and loading items in my shops as soon as possible. Please check my shop often to see what new goodies have surfaced from my “Lair”. I very much look forward to updating my shops, promoting my shops and selling lots of cool vintage stuff!


Also newsworthy, I have joined an esty team vmteam Vintage Market Team. This is a team of etsy shop owners who
also sell vintage items. Check out their site and see what other vintage items you can discover! It really is a great, condensed source of funky, retro, antique, vintage stuff…http://vintagemarket.ning.com/. If you like vintage, this is nirvana!
