[ Shop Around the Corner: Foxy Vintage
January 23, 2009
You may not know it, but it is still winter – technically. This strange thing happens to me every winter.. Magazines begin to overflow with the coming Spring/Summer looks and I feel the need to change. It feels like I need to brighten my wardrobe and lighten the layers. Not necessary! Spring doesn’t officially kick off until March 20th.
Feeling the struggle between the two seasons, I received a package with the perfect solution. Foxy Vintage owner, Erika, hand selected a winter print/spring dress that with just the right styling would help me transition. Foxy Vintage is a fabulously stocked online vintage store that every Society Girl should check weekly as new items pop up.
You may want to take the route I did and let Erika hand select your item. She got it absolutely correct with my new transitional dress. Stop on by Foxy Vintage and see for yourself.. or let her send something marvelous your way.

Shops Around the Corner: Covet Vintage
December 30, 2008
Finding the perfect bohemian-luxe frock can be a doozy. One that is not too “era” or too “over-printed”. One that creates a carefree attitude while at the same time feeling glamorous - yes.. difficult to find.
Until.. Covet Vintage popped up! Covet Vintage is an online vintage boutique featuring seasonal trends, and this being the season of hippie, gypsy and Grecian inspired dresses - you are in luck - ’cause Covet Vintage has them all.
Craving turned into reality when this little number showed up on my front door step. My delight could not be contained, at last I had found a dress with an incredible tapestry print, a swingy skirt and just enough Portobello market to put me straight back in the 70’s.
So now that you have made your “unwanted” Christmas returns - spend a little time where your “want” - Covet Vintage

Shop around the Corner: Ramona West

It’s time to shop! Christmas is a few days away and you may have a few gifts still yet to buy.. I have the perfect place to shop - Ramona West Vintage!
This shop is the where you want to spend your after Christmas cash. Ramona West features 60s and 70s mini dresses, high waist skirts, mod, retro, hippie, disco, boho, glam. coats, jackets, and boots - basically anything a Society Girl would want.
I was lucky enough to find this ridiculously fabulous Kimono Jacket at Ramona West and have not been able to take it off. The drape of the sleeves and the vibrant colors make it a new staple in my closet. So if your wardrobe needs a little lift, make your way over to Ramona West.
Shops around the Corner: Big Yellow Taxi
December 6, 2008
This is one to be excited about! I discovered my new favorite coat here, a coat that will stay with me until the day I die. My excitement is about the Etsy shop Big Yellow Taxi. The selection at this hot spot is not just the typical finds. Authentic high end dresses, outwear and many other vintage treasures will be discovered here.
Each week I anticipate new items to be added to the shop, hoping my next purchase is just around the corner. So head over to Big Yellow Taxi and find your gem to take to the grave.
