Hats & Wintry Things

I'm immensely inspired by Ashley of Poppycock on Etsy lately. She makes me want to wear hats/buy hats/and sell hats. Her shop is quite beautiful, and if you haven't seen it you must!

A couple of weeks ago I had an antiquing trip near where I live and found some real cute "lids"* that are finally all listed in the shop!

*I had one of my favorite hats on last year around Thanksgiving and an older man probably in his early 70s told me at Trader Joe's that he liked my "lid". Thought that was pretty cute. :)

You'll also now find in the shop a pretty pleated wool suit, alpaca poncho (which I also listed as a skirt because I think it would look darling worn as one), a dirndl (favorite dress style ever, maybe), St. John metallic knit skirt suit, Rhinestone constellation dress, reindeer sweater, and some other vintage pretties.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS, everyone! (can't believe 2012 is almost over). How in the WORLD did that even happen?!

Prepare for November - New Arrivals!

Newest arrivals brought to you by the month of November! Brr, is it getting cold out there! Stay warm in pretty printed velvet, sweater blouses, long sleeves, angora & wool, and cozy & cute coats. I'm starting to think that I should have sold that grey sweater & the plaid skirt together, because they make such a darling outfit.

Visit the shop to view these recently listed goodies, oh and let me know what you think about my new shop & blog banner, which I FINALLY got around to making. I'm pretty happy with it. :)

Have a lovely week, dears!

FALLing

Some highlights from the most recent shop update for FALL. Hope there's a theme of "it's-getting-a-tad-chillier-out-there" apparent here. :) My favorite item of the week is the vintage 70s kimono dress with flying cranes! oh, you know how I love those novelty prints! How about that kitschy kitty vest too? so fun...MEOW. Have a great weekend!

What You'd Expect, Part 2

Big shop update #2, way overdue, but still what you'd expect from the shop! Bows, ruffles, sequins, lace, flowers, and plenty of my favorite color - RED! I nearly fainted when I found those rhinestone-encrusted suede Charles Jourdan heels -they're made for you tiny feet girls out there! (size 5) All these goodies in the shop! xo

Just What You'd Expect

This is 1 of 2 shop updates for the weekend, only because I haven't posted one in AGES and I want to share some of the pretties I've been listing within the past month or so! Again, I'm sorry for the lack of posts my dear friends. I'm a work in progress and so is my shop/blog/online life. BALANCE is key & I'm still working on that.

But as usual, the update is (hopefully) what you'd expect from Lola Vintage -- ruffles, some florals, lace, bows, and the other details that make an item especially feminine. :)

All these pieces are currently available in the shop!

p.s. the first dress pictured I purchased from a huge antique mall after falling head-over-heels in love with it. It came with a note that read, "worn on a barefoot bride with flowers in her hair". I think a soon-to-be bride should make this 1960s beauty come alive again before summer is over!
