Vena Cava @ Fashion Week
Even though I work (mainly) in vintage clothing, my background is in higher-end, new fashion. Most styles are, in some way, shape or form, a recreation of a past trend so the two go hand in hand. Case in point, Vena Cava channeled some serious 90s' looks in their Fall debut at Fashion Week. Above are a few of my favorite looks. The cutouts and silhouettes remind me of some items I have here at Ramona Lou. Love the amazing rust-hued skirt in the center!

How to Give a Valentine Ramona Lou Style
Add flowers. You can pick them from your own yard or try a local florist if your thumb isn't so green. Flowers say a lot without having to even whisper a word!
If you REALLY like your Valentine, add some jewelry to the mix. This Erica Weiner bow and locket necklace ($40) is a nice choice. Good luck and remember to love your Valentine everyday of the year :)

One Crazy Belt
One of the best parts of my job is the freedom to invent and create as I please. Some days, dressing the mannequins comes more naturally than others. I usually begin with one item I want to use and build from there. Today's look is a little wacky but isn't that a perk of wearing vintage? Items pictured: vintage sweater skirt, medium ($18), vintage woven tank, petite large ($16), one crazy belt ($14), Three Corners Designs square crystal necklace ($35) and Erica Weiner skeleton key necklace ($32).

"A Few New Pieces and A Banana," an original screenplay by S. Naffz
She too loved him but, like so many other stories, their love grew tired. He left her under mutually bland feelings and circumstances for a vintage belted dress ($32) named Dawn Joy.
Ms. Joy brought the banana a to a whole new level, or so he thought. Her kindness quickly turned into an obsessive situation. He saw the warning signs. There were red flags everywhere. One night, he left her. He changed his name to Saffron, a spice he knew she despised.
The story ends on a high note. Saffron found a love like no other with Duck, Duck, Duck, a perfectly worn sweatshirt who fulfilled his three true desires. They settled down on a decent piece land, with plenty of sunshine and fresh water. Life was was simple and they were happy and to them, that was gold.
