redesigned ▸ new tags and business cards

I spent some time this weekend designing new tags and business cards for my shop, mostly because many people have been asking me at my new job, and I've had nothing of quality to provide them with. The cards look great in person, much better than they do against the white background here on my blog, but you get the idea. Hope everyone had a great, and productive weekend, as well!

Inside My Vintage Jewelry Box

Here are some photos of my extensive vintage jewelry collection. While most of the pieces I have are just costume jewelry, they're still elegant, timeless and mix well with modern fashion. Long pendant necklaces from the 70's, particularly animal shapes, are my favorite. I also love anything obnoxiously sparkly, like mid-century aurora borealis beads and crystal tennis bracelets. Shop my vintage jewelry box in the jewelry section of Sticky Lipgloss Vintage.

My Life in Instagram

I've been totally obsessed with the Instagram photo app for iPhone for months now. Thought I'd share with you a collage of my favorites over the past half a year or so. If you use it, make sure to follow me @stckylipvintage!

Piles and Piles of Vintage Finds!

I've been finding some fabulous vintage in the past recent weeks. I love unearthing vintage from unique locations near and far. There are boxes full of clothing in my living room, as I go through them one by one to clean, sew, and bring back to life for the store (or myself, if they fit!). I've got tons of new items and really exciting ones at that, I'll try to post more pictures later this week. I've also been adding a few new items to the shop today, and last week. A grand sneak peek of some awesome things to come will be posted soon, I promise.

As for me, I was in Boston over the weekend with my boyfriend for his Godson's 1st Birthday party. And while I got no vintage there, I had plenty of fun wearing it. After all, that's why we love it. Hope you had a great weekend

Climbing Trees in Vintage Pinks

top :: 80's vintage sweater

bottom :: thrifted jean shorts

shoes :: metallic silver flats from Spain

bracelets :: faux pearls from Forever21

We had such a beautiful day today, I had to go outside and see if I could still climb the tree in the backyard. I could, kind of. In other news, I spent the weekend in New York visiting the boyfriend and boating on the Finger Lakes. While there, I was able to get some new vintage items for the store. Hopefully they will be in stock by early next week. In the meantime, I'm going to eat some more ice cream and watch The Nanny until I fall asleep on my dog.

Store Update Sneak Peek

These gorgeous pieces were added either yesterday or will be coming up later in the week along with a few other items. Lots of pretty dresses for summer! Enjoy.

Summer, Flowers, and Enjoying Life

Flowers, flowers, flowers! Summer is so pretty. I love having all the windows open and listening to the birds chirp while I work away on whatever my latest project is. I think I need to get out of summer vacation mode, and start getting up earlier though. I need to run a couple miles before it gets too hot, and start being productive well before lunch. Sometimes being a night owl is very frustrating. 

I took a weekend trip back up to New York to visit my boyfriend. We lucked out and had great weather the whole time which allowed us to eat lunch at a sidewalk cafe, go to the pool, see a drive-in movie, and run a few miles together. It was a nice time. OH. And he had a surprise waiting for me when I got there. Two tickets to Vegas, next weekend! I couldn't be more excited, for I have never been there, and despite not even knowing how to gamble, I'm sure I will love it.

I also added a few new items to the shop today, and hopefully there will be some more up by the end of the week. Take a look!
