On Sunday evening I returned home from a four day trip visiting Brittany from Va-Voom Vintage. Omg! That was a huge secret to keep from you all but I wanted it to be a surprise. So.... SURPRISE!!!!! hehe I flew in on Thursday morning and my first day with Brittany was spent shopping at two fabulous thrift stores, getting my hair cut by Nikki, and ending the evening with some Mexican food!
I started my day eating lunch with Brittany and her children at my favorite eatery in St. Charles called Magpies. The melted Bree cheese with fruit was heavenly! One must eat well before one shops til they drop!
These are some of my goodies from the thrift stores. The dresses were four dollars each and the skirts were three dollars. The scarves were about one to two dollars as were the bracelets (sold in packs).
Ohhh this was my yummy Mexican food-totally stuffed my face hehe This truly was a perfect first day! We didn't over do it and we got a lot done! That night we prepared for our photo shoot with Photography by Monica Moore. Tune in tomorrow for a sneak peak on our shoot! We did four decades in five hours! It was a blast!
How was your week been so far? Anything fabulous and vintagey happen for you?

ReplyDeleteThanks hun! I just added some info on the dress-thank you for the heads up on it!! xox
DeleteHow much fun that must have been. Sometimes it really bums me out that I live no where near any of you vintage loving gals. Im all alone with my love of vintage in my neck of the woods. But Im glad I get to share in the fun on here. Cant wait to see and here more about your trip.
ReplyDeleteI wish we could all get together! Thats a big dreams of mine! Like have a Vintage Festival or something like Viva but not as big or flashy but a proper vintage event kwim? I dream big, I know! xox
DeleteIf you're gonna dream, dream big - I always say. =) I think a Vintage Festival would be awesome! And even better if its somewhere on the Eastern side of the states so it would be easier for me to attend! lol
DeleteWhat a lovely thing to do for yourself Bunny!!! And I'm curious to learn more about your hair cut!
ReplyDeleteThank you sweets! So Nikki basically gave my hair more of a 40s shape at the back-it didn't have a good shape and setting just wouldn't look good. Going to try a set with my "new' hair this weekend-will take pics!! xox
DeleteI love your red and black outfit.
ReplyDeleteThank you Chrissy!! xox
DeleteI'm so glad you both had such a hoot together! Can't wait to see more, Bunny!
