Vintage Goodies - part II

Tonight I'll bring you more about my vintage finds of the week! Some of the stuff here are going for sale because even though I love it, they don't fit me. Soon I'll put it on my etsy shop where you can find it and buy it! :D

Here w go...

Those vintage leather boots are to cry for! Very much Mary Poppins style, in great condition. Unfortunetly they are a size 35 and they don't fit me.. but they can fit you! ;)

Lovely gloves for winter! 

Look at these shoes and bag to match! Found them in different shops, but they match perfectly as if they were from the same collection! Very exotic.

..one of the most precious finds! Christian Dior house coat! I'm so in love with it. It's so warm and beautiful. 

It's baby blue with lovely details!

Tomorrow I'll bring you more goodies! Stay tunned!

Love,

Vintage Goodies - Part I

Hello babes,
This last week I went hunting for vintage goodies in some second hand shops nearby. I got great stuff for almost nothing! 
Charity shops are a great source of vintage for very low prices. I really love to go there because they look like your granny's attic. You find a lot of ugly stuff but in the end what really excites me is the hunting for treasures!
Today I'll show you a part of what I've got. 

Cute little sleepers in a very good condition! They are so pretty I would wear them on the streets!

 This one is an old finding but I wanted to feature it anyway! Mid century curtains that I later transformed into beautiful pillows! (see bellow)
This little  navy bag is one of my favourite finds of the week! It's a 50's leather bag in perfect shape and condition! It was only 2€ in a charity shop. Can you believe it? I also got these cute nylon scarves in tropical green, black and animal print!

Got a lovely vintage lingerie box! This is where I keep my sunglasses now! ( props to the wonderful hairdryer)


And last, but not the least... not a vintage find, but a cute find for sure! Cat charm bracelet I bought on Claires! One more for my cat collection!


Wasn't it a good hunting?  Tomorrow I'll bring you more of my vintage goodies!



Love,
La Mermaid

Busy days + flashback of 2013 work

It's been a while since I blogged. I've been busy moving to the new house! I'm so happy and my cats love it! We have lots of space and light and I've never felt so inspired and happy with a place like this before.
Right now I'm not only busy with the new house but also with work and other projects.

2013 was a great year, I met great people, done wonderful works, grew as an artist and the most important of all I lived wonderful moments. Here is a 2013 flashback of my work.



Love,

New Year, New Home

Happy New Year my loves!

To celebrate the first day of 2014, today I started moving to my new home. As we say "New Year, new life", that's what's happening to me right now!
It's so beautiful and I'm so in love with it!  I can feel good vibes coming and the house is so much inspiring to me. 


Today I'll post some pictures of the house!

Bellow it's the living room , my fav part of the house.



The house's entrance, with my baby D.( The kitchen door on the left)

And my room, with a wonderful window!

HOME SWEET HOME!

Next step: Cleaning the stuff and decorating!
