Wardrobe Weekender Video & Frock Up Bendigo!




This video was made for the Wardrobe Weekender at Barkly Square that was held quite a while back now. Can you see me in the video...? There are whispers there will be another Take 2 Market in August which I'm very excited about since it's close to home!

******

 Not sure what to do this weekend? Well, this Saturday from 9am to 5pm  is the Frock Up Bendigo vintage fair at Kangaroo Flat Leisure Centre which coincides with the Grace Kelly Exhibition.  It's a great opportunity to shop for vintage and see some of the most amazing frocks worn by Grace Kelly.

Would you like two free tickets to Frock up Bendigo this weekend? Then leave a comment below.

And here is a map of how to get to Frock up Bendigo!

Retro Alphabet Blocks





I love these retro alphabet blocks. I use mine to spell Bleecker Street Vintage. Customers have purchased blocks for their lucky number, birthdate or name.

Winter knits & Japanese manga


Just arrived this week are warm winter knits from Europe! You can find cashmere, mohair and wool blends to keep away the winter chills that Melbourne is famous for!



Also available are back issues of Japanese magazines, Fruits, Tune, Art It & Tokyo Graffiti for only $5.00.

Bleecker Street Vintage is here at SO:ME South Melbourne until June 17, but get here quick before they go! The winter knits have been really popular since they arrived.

Two More Sleeps till Love Vintage Melbourne!!!



Look book completed and sent out to mailing list customers.  TICK!

New stock arrived in time for Love Vintage Melbourne. TICK!

Cool shelving made from industrial ladders. TICK!

Bunting made with photos from New York. TICK!

Clothes checked for correct pricing.

Vintage picked up from the dry cleaners.

Business cards done.

Cupcakes made.


Oh no! Still more things to be competed before Love Vintage. Not too sure if the last one will be done, so fingers crossed! There are only two more sleeps and I'm so excited about this event.

The most important things for me to get out of this event is to enjoy myself and meet interesting people. And if it all goes well, I'd love to attend Sydney Love Vintage as I meet so many customers from Sydney who complain there is no good vintage in Sydney. See you soon Love Vintage!

A Happy Customer from at the Take 2 Markets


When I can remember, I try and take photos of customers in their new purchases. Today was such an occasion. This customer had come all the way down from Sale for the market!



This photo is from last sunday at Camberwell Market. This customer, who is originally from Finland, but now resides in Melbourne purchased a cute 60's white sequin top.

TAKE 2 MARKETS

Today Bleecker Street Vintage is at TAKE 2 MARKETS, Barkly square Brunswick. I have cute vintage fur coats for the colder months of Melbourne.
