Our December flyer

OMG do we love our December flyer! We went to The Violet Hour for the photoshoot, and it was FUN. The location was perfect and so were our models - and the cocktails!

The hunk you see on the left is called Tony Bryan, who's a fashion stylist repped by Ford, a model and a musician. And one of the most stylish lads in Chicago. A modern and hipper version of Don Draper.

The beauty on the right is Lindsey Leyland, who's basically the perfect girl: she can cook, dance, has fabulous taste for clothes and decor, is funny and sweet, good with kids... and I promise you, all that perfection doesn't get one bit annoying since she's so unassuming. You can see a bit more of her at Lenny and Me, a must-go vintage store down the block from Vintage Heaven. She's the one responsible for their gorgeous shop windows and some of their greatest finds. Now if you wanna see A LOT more of her (with plenty of class, let's make it clear), go check her burlesque routine with her friend Erin. The duo is called Honey B. Combe, and you can get performance updates on Erin's blog and Facebook.

Doesn't she look great with this Venus Meets Vintage dress she got at our October sale?

Tanya from Bunny's Trunk Show, where I got the most amazing jewelry last weekend.






NY stylist Griffin came to pay us a visit and went crazy with Alma's latest collection (he's wearing one of her dresses). Also he showed us when he was spotted by The New Yorker as one of the most stylish people from NY fashion week (above). PS: he was wearing a jacket he bought from us - which I had previously got from Kokorokoko, let's be fair...

Karyn (above) and Megan (below) try on the fab cape from Venus Meets Vintage.



Melissa from Vintage Freak came in a quick buh-bye.


Gina!!! I love your style!


Nick came to check out our men's selection and found this cool 80's graphic sweater.


And this is the sign you should look for when walking down Milwaukee on December 11th and 12th, our next sale. The sign might be modest, but come up and see how luxurious we are! Luxurious and affordable, what else do you need? ; )
