Savvy Vintage Shopping by the Pros

por | | 0 comentarios


Ran across this info and thought I would pass it along. Since not everyone knows what they are buying ... if you are buying true Vintage clothes here are some tips to make sure your purchase is worth the $$$$$:



  • Fur: Check that the hairs are firmly attached to the pelts hide and that there is no molting or flaking on the surface;

  • Lingerie - Check for stains (i.e., coffee, lipstick, etc.) that cannot be removed. If the color is off -- you can always die it another color

  • Clothes - Pieces from the sixties or earlier usually contain extra fabric in the sames which allows you let your garments out (YAHOO!)

  • You can change a dress neckline or length to make it look more current.

  • Remember that if there are 3 things that need to be fixed, you are better off finding something similar that requires less work.

  • If buying online rquest photo's of the item's label, inside seam and if a purse the hardware and corners.

If buying new ... it's not hard to find some great deals on the net. Retro is "in" right now. From high end to low ... you can find the styles. Check out Yoox.com (they carry alot of designer clothes and one of a kind jewelry); Alloy (for thinner wallets); Coast (I'm lovin' Coast -- they have fabulous dresses) and Manhattanite, jut to name a few.

Title: Vintage Designer Fashions Offered at Bargain Prices.




In fashion conscious cities like New York, people who cannot afford new designer fashions are turning to vintage clothing stores. Here, shoppers can find previously owned designer label clothing at discount prices. VOA's Nia Sutadi and Ade Astuti recently visited one of the best-known vintage stores in New York, Cheap Jack's Vintage Clothing, a place where savvy shoppers can find second hand fashion at a reasonable price. Jim Bertel narrates.


Title: Vintage David Letterman (1987) - Brazilian Coffee House 2 of 3




Late Night with David Letterman late 1987. Letterman does his Top Ten list, "What's Hal Wearing" and the Late Night Thrill-Cam. On part 2 he orders out to a Brazilian Coffee House for some flan. Part 3 is very funny, he has a lady on with her two monkeys. One of the monkeys does not care very much for Letterman and keeps trying to attack him. In parts 2 and 3 there's some 1987 commercials, one of them has Joe Piscopo doing a Miller Light Beer commercial. Late Night with David Letterman was a nightly hour-long comedy talk show on NBC hosted by David Letterman. It premiered in 1982 and went off the air in 1993, after Letterman left NBC and moved to the Late Show on CBS. Late Night with Conan O'Brien then filled the time slot. In 1991, the show's three production companies — Carson Productions, Worldwide Pants, and NBC Productions — were awarded a Peabody Award, which cited the following: In the past ten years, one show has moved to the position of the leader in late night television in creativity, humor, and innovation. That program is Late Night With David Letterman. As one member of the Peabody Board remarked, "David Letterman is a born broadcaster." He is also a savvy co-executive producer. Along with co-executive producer Jack Rollins, producer Robert Morton, director Hal Gurnee, and musical director Paul Shaffer, Mr. Letterman has surrounded himself with exceptional talent and given them the go-ahead to experiment with the television medium. Particularly noteworthy is the work of head writer Steve O'Donnell and his talented staff. Together, the "Late Night" team manages to take one of TV's most conventional and least inventive forms — the talk show — and infuse it with freshness and imagination. For television programming which, at its best, is evocative of the greats, from Your Show of Shows, to The Steve Allen Show, and The Ernie Kovacs Show, a Peabody to Late Night With David Letterman. The program ran four nights a week, Monday to Thursday, from the show's premiere in February 1982 until May 1987 from 12:30 a.m. to 1:30 a.m. Friday shows were added in June 1987 (NBC previously, aired Friday Night Videos in the 12:30 a.m. slot with occasional Late Night specials and reruns). Starting in September 1991, The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson was pushed back from 11:30 p.m. to 11:35 p.m., with Letterman starting at 12:35 a.m., at the request of NBC affiliates who wanted more advertising time for their profitable late newscasts (though Letterman had a different reason for the delay: "With the extra five minutes, I will make certain that my make-up is absolutely perfect!").

OKAY I AM DONE I AM DONE I AM DONE I AM DONE

por | | 0 comentarios


I PROMISE I AM DONE, I AM DONE, I AM DONE!

Shopping hiatus begins now. NOW! I know it was supposed to being last week. Technically, it was supposed to being at 12:01 AM on January 1st, but you know me. I know me. I suck at stuff like this. Where did my willpower go?

So along with my resolution to be more positive (Man I suck, I can't stop buying things to make myself feel better, I can't stop shopping my feelings, there's the little children in Zimbabwe and the puppies that need me and I just want to buy Nanette Lepore skirts and make-up and oh, wait. What?) I made a teensy little pledge to myself, mostly to test my willpower. Mostly to see if I could actually do it. I like a good challenge. Could I last three months without buying ANYTHING?

(Okay, basic necessities like food, medication, and the occasional replacement item of make-up not included. You all haven't seen me without foundation and my penciled-in-eyebrows. It's not pretty. But replacement items of make-up only, nothing new.)

Running a marathon? Nah. Climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro? For suckers. I need a REAL CHALLENGE here you guys. A REAL TEST OF STRENGTH and COMMITMENT and YOU KNOW ALL THAT STUFF.

And, you know, there's the issue that the entire country is in a recession. Husband and I are in a recession. Husband doesn't make a lot of money, truthfully; like any smart business owner, he only gets rewarded when the company does well. We've been fortunate that the last several years have been great years so we've been rewarded very well. 2008 and 2009 are not (and will not) be the same. Owning a small business can be very cyclical- you save when times are good, so you can make it through when times are bad.

(And thank god Husband is a saver, or else we'd be sca-rewed. Screwed.)

So like the rest of America, it's time to tighten our belts a bit. We are also looking at doing a complete remodel to our townhome this summer (which is 30 years old and needs a lot of cosmetic work done- new carpet, I want wood floors, new furniture, Husband wants one of those showers that has a laser light show and squirts water out from 10 nozzles to the rhythm of whatever music you like) and I'd like to put some of my money towards that, only because that means I can run out and buy things before Husband gets his say-so in it. Ha. Take that, Husband.

So it's not going to kill me. I have enough clothes to wardrobe the entire cast of Mad Men (and the extras...and maybe the set of Gossip Girl, and their extras too). It's not like I'm going to be running around naked and make-up less here. And perhaps a shopping hiatus will make me appreciate the clothes I actually have a bit more. It's easy to get caught in the trap of buy-buy-buy, especially now with everything being on sale and cheap and so, so, so pretty. Oh so pretty.

A shopping hiatus for three months.

Posting it here will make me committed, because you know- apparently posting it IN MY BRAIN did NOT.

Umm. So now for the good stuff- who wants to see what I bought during my last binge? Hee.

Is This Wild or What? Pavillion Made from 200 Recycled Speedo's

por | | 0 comentarios

All images via www.designboom.com


This amazing pavilion designed by students at Chelsea College of Art & Design has been on show during the London Festival of Architecture for the last couple of weeks. It is made from the unlikeliest of materials, Speedo swimsuits.  What a fantastic example of the design possibilities that can be found in the upcycling process.



Sustainable Design Brief


The pavilion' is the result of a collaborative project between Chelsea College of Art & Design and the famous Speedo swimwear brand, which asked students to look at issues of sustainability, production and use of materials.  Redundant Swimsuits


Students on Chelsea's Platform 2 were given 600 'LZR racer' swimming suits to find an appropriate use for. Why the LZR racer? And why so many? Well due to recent changes in swimming competition rules this incredibly hi-tech piece of sportswear was made redundant leaving Speedo with hundreds of swimsuits they could no longer sell.

Title: Wild Bunch - Final Shootout




Famous final scene from this great Western by Sam Peckinpah


Title: Fallout New Vegas: Wild Wild Wasteland




Alright so I got this game a few weeks back and didn't stop playing it until I beat it twice. New Vegas is an awkwardly buggy game full of strange glitches and distracting plot unrelated moments. Yet somehow everyone loves it including me. This game is addicting as hell and feels much more lively than Fallout 3, there was just overall more stuff to do, more choices to make, and more people to interact with. In summary, New Vegas is silly and I love it.

A Necklace a Day - Six

por | | 0 comentarios

Peacock Bead Palette

Although I love putting together trios of beads every months for Bead Color Triads, I don’t often have the time to put them to good use. Sometimes the beads I use to make a palette come together are ‘reserved’ for something else - an idea for a project that may or may not be completed one distant day.

This month, I decided it was time show how a recent bead palette really would look in a finished piece. Luckily, October’s subject was peacock feathers, and the bead choices were awesome.

I mixed together two of the palettes, starting with some brown grooved rectangles, Capri blue crystals, and matte black magatamas. I added golden amber seed beads with a beautiful warm glow, and light aqua fire polish rounds to add a little bulk.


Groovy Peacock Necklace by The Sage's Cupboard

Groovy Peacock Necklace

These groovy rectangles have been waiting around a long time for me to get a little inspiration. I finally decided it was time to just use them, as is, and stop worrying about whether or not a better idea might suddenly jump out of the shadows. I strung them with a few crystals, then used my favorite quick stitch - reverse daisy chain - to make some straps and voila! A new necklace with lots of sparkle is done.

If you’re trying to tackle an overflowing bead stash, you’ve just got to jump in and do it. What kinds of beads are you holding onto for lack of inspiration?

Inspiration Tip: Fun with Color

por | | 0 comentarios

Paint Color Cards

Many beading books and resources tell us that it’s a good idea to create swatches of seed beads, to help with color selection. If you have a small piece of beadwork representing every color and finish in your stash, it’s easy to select just the right beads for every palette or project.

It’s a great idea, but if you’ve already got a large selection of beads on hand, it can seem like a pretty daunting task. Who wants to spend all that time making little square stitch samples when there’s jewelry to be made?

Being able to mix and match colors easily is a great way to experiment with color possibilities though. To solve part of the dilemma for myself, I dropped by my neighborhood paint store and picked up a selection of paint swatches in all the basic colors.

After cutting the cards into separate colored slips, it’s easy to create new and interesting palettes based on themes, moods or even memories. After playing with different colors, it’s just as easy to select beads that match, and make a stunning or intriguing piece of beadwork.

Here are three fun examples:

"Mermaid"

"Happy"

"Carnival Ride"

Try it yourself, and have a little fun with color!
