Scene and be seen. 🏡🏝️⛵ We love a great print around here, but if that's not quite your... well... scene, there's plenty of solids and more subtle prints also! #vintageshop #noveltyprint #dopaminedressing #ultratwistvintage

I wore all black for decades and trust me, I get the appeal. But also trust me that once you start adding a lil pop of color here and there, it gets easier and even a bit addictive haha! PS: Keep your eyes open for some upcoming workshops on DIY Color Analysis and wearing color with confidence!

A few ways to add a little color to your wardrobe mix: 🌈 Accessories: colorful shoes, bags, hats, hair clips, belts, or even socks 🌈 Silk scarves: tie 'em in your hair, around your neck, on a bag, or as a belt

Did you know that colorful environments (and clothes) are proven to boost spirits and increase a sense of joy and happiness? It's true! (Hooray for science!) You don't have to go full-on highlighter-bright-neon maxi dress to get the benefits either.

Happy Aloha Friday! 🌺 It's also International Color Day so of course I used that as an excuse to wear the brightest vintage Hawaiian dress in my collection!

the most beneficial effect of many boycotts is on yourself 'but that won't hurt company x' is often irrelevant I'm taking back some agency I'm aligning my actions with my beliefs I feel better for it that's good enough in fact, imo it's better than punishment as a motive

Mindful shopping tip: Channel Freddie Mercury when shopping and ask yourself "Is this real life, or is this just fantasy?" If you won't wear it in your real life, leave it there for someone who will! But remember a "fantasy" outfit for one person is "real life" for another - be true to you!

Just a reminder that once you start looking, you can find almost anything somewhere other than Amazon. I just deleted the app from my phone and it felt so liberating! (And no shame to folks who can't divest themselves completely, we all gotta do what's best for our own lives!) #shopsmall #shoplocal
