With just a click of your mouse you and I will become best buds and talk about your dislikes and likes and what kind of vintage garment your little heart desires. I will then head out into the city and do all of the leg work for you and find the perfect vintage item to add to your closet! Check out the details, here, and let me know what you think!

Have a great weekend everyone.

Day 9: BEDM Challenge A Moment in Your Day

I am a very happy blogger today. BEDM's challenge is simple, sweet, and to-the-point! Day 9's super awesome prompt:

"A moment in your day"

I was torn between what moment to use! But I went with what I spent a majority of my time doing today, which was taking photos of new inventory that will soon be up in the shop. Here is my chosen photo of the prettiest floral dress for spring!

Keep your eyes open for this blue number and a few other spring items that I will have up in the shop in time for all of the warm weather!  Just for fun I have one extra moment that I have to share. 

Look at this pretty piglet in pearls. 

Styling and profiling in pearls and Chanel!

Isn't it sweet? I love running into things like this in Seoul, I am going to miss this city when I leave.

Also, if you haven't checked out my Etsy shop and are into vintage clothing, take a peek at it, here.

Sneak Peek!

After being computerless for much longer than I liked, I am finally back! I didn't end of getting a new computer, but instead got my old one repaired which was a relief! I had thought a new computer was a must since every service center I visited refused to work on macs....or to speak English. My Hangul is improving everyday, but a discussion about hard drives and ports is still waaaaaaay out of grasp for me. To help me out in my language fix a Korean friend of mine helped and went with me to the nearest mac specific service center we could find in the city, and they handled the linguistic side of the visit!

HAPPY DAY!

Now I have my computer back with a brand-new hard drive and I am ready to start reinstalling all my software, AND have started getting together a major shop update! Here are a few of the newest items that will soon be making it into the shop! I hope you all like them, are as excited for the spring season, and all the great fashion and colors that come with it like I am!

Shop Preview!

How has everyone's New Year been going? I hope that y'all are all knocking 2013 out of the park! I have been a busy bee lately and have been working on my New Year's resolutions like they are going out of style! I am really encouraged by the way this year is going and I have taken the "make it so" mentality to heart. 

Thanks, Jean-Luc!

In celebration here is a pretty shop preview to enjoy! Keep an eye out on the shop because these vintage beauties will be making an appearance very soon! :) You can find them and other great vintage clothing at our Etsy shop, Seoul Sold, here. I am really happy with my recent finds and I cannot wait to share them all! What do you think of the soon-to-be new additions? I think they are sweet and just in time for Valentine's Day!

Guest Blog Post: Favorite Object

Hi everyone! 

Recently my friend Emily from TheObject Enthusiast asked me to do a guest blog post for her favorite object blog series. I chose a music box that my grandmother had given me when I was just a little girl. I am really happy with how the blog post turned out, so if you want to give it a look head over to Emily’s blog and let us know what you think. :) 

                                                                            See the blog post, here.

Also, if you are looking for amazing handmade ceramics Emily’s shop is your new best friend!
Emily runs a ceramic shop on Etsy and you can visit her shop, here, and her lifestyle blog, here.

Here is a little sample of her creative skills!

 

Hurray, it's Sneak Peek Time!

While the holidays are winding down I have taken the opportunity to get a shop overhaul in the works! I have been playing around with new software and it has been really fun especially with my mannequin to help me. Her name is Betty. :)

You would not believe what a time-saver it is when it comes to getting the clothing modeled and photographed. 

My Betty is the best 19 dollar purchase that I ever made on a sidewalk in Seoul. Love at first sight!

Here is a little something that I have been working on and wanted to share with everyone! I hope that everyone loves the fresh new look that will be hitting the shop in the near future.

Dinking around with the new software and photography has really helped me stave off cabin fever since the temperatures in Seoul have become pretty unpleasant. How is the weather where you are and what do you do to help stay sane when it isn't fun to be outside?

Fashion Friend: Emily Reinhardt's Outfit of the Day

I chose this outfit for a day of thrifting and seeking out second hand treasures with my friend Jen Spring. We took the non-traditional Black Friday shopping route, avoiding those stores with crazy flat screen tv deals and equally crazy shoppers. She has ignited this desire in me to find the best deals and to shop as wisely and frugally as possible.

I found a 13-piece set of brown glass tumblers in various sizes for $7, a wood framed small mirror for the wall for $3, a bronze flower/succulent pot for $6.50, and cloth napkins for $1.00 each. For just about $20 I had my arms full of treasures that truly get my heart beating. I love treasure hunting, especially when it's time spent with a good friend.

My skirt came from Zara (www.zara.com), a store I fell in love with in Washington, D.C. during a sidewalk sale. My shirt and blazer are both from H & M (http://www.hm.com) and my flats are the Gap (www.gap.com) city flats - my absolute favorite flat! So comfortable, and I now own a wide range of colors! I've never been much of a necklace girl, so pinning a mini flower pom from ban.do (www.shopbando.com) right onto my shirt is the perfect accessory for me. Makes me feel extra fancy! Like it's a real boutonniere! My jade ring was made by Debbie Carlos (http://www.etsy.com/shop/shopahc) and she and I worked out a little trade, so it cost me a few ceramic plates, and that's it!
