LOOK (OR LOCH NESS MONSTER) OF THE DAY

So I decided to start, or at least try to start, posting looks of the day. Most of these are just finds from my own closet I happened to throw on for the day.

WHAT I'M WEARING:

Vintage Saks Fifth Ave blouse

Vintage 20's beaded hood

Drug store sunglasses

Thrifted belt

Granny knee-highs

Vintage oxford boots

Today the weather is floral with a touch of blue. Probably a bit of a bizarre outfit considering how bloody humid it's been, and it looks a bit like I'm a homeless person (not in a chic way), but oh well, it is what I've been wearing today. And despite my monstrously bumpy little knees, and the whole homlessness, I actually like it. Forrest and I have been working a lot of music and other projects, and I've started practicing the cello he gave me for my birthday, so I've been a bit negligent of the shoppe. Still, things have been selling like mad. And I swear new items will be up soon, even if by the time I get around to it all the items currently up are gone. Hopefully soon my avoidance of work will bear some new folksy cello songs.

SHOP GGV

CUTE CUSTOMER WITH AN AMAZING CAUSE

We ask each costumer at GGV if they would like to send in a picture of them in their new item to be featured on our blog. This first featured shopper just happens to be quite unique. Does anyone remember the adorable polka dotted swing skirt we had on the site?

This coveted skirt was snatched up by a lovely little lady from LA named Jessie. Below is the picture she sent in of the polka dot swing skirt, done her way, and we think we may just be in love:

 Not only is this girl gorgeous, but she also happens to be the founder of a non-profit called Liveacre that is pretty astounding. Check it out: http://www.liveacre.org And stay updated on possible collaborations with Liveacre in the future! So to conclude this girl crush moment, here's what Jessie had to say about GGV:

"Amazing incredibly fast service / delivery! I literally got my package in 2 days from across the country! And such a beautiful skirt! Thanks Gypsy Gamine Vintage, you stole my heart!!! xxxx"

Good to know our crush is mutual!
