Sweeties from Raspberry Beret, Cambridge.

The cardigan was from Alley Cat Vintage Mercantile in Wichita Falls, TX, which is an amazing vintage store. The pencil skirt is one of the finds when I visited my favorite store Raspberry beret, Cambridge.

This beauty was on sale, only $10.00, who could miss this out?? Glad it was waiting for me on a sale rack, though!!

These handmade jacket and top set was also marked down. Well, my question was “ why nobody has wanted to buy these? They are beautiful!! ” Once again, I was so happy that I was the one to bring it home ;)

They has been adding their vintage selection more, and it is so hard to not drop by on the way back from work to home. Yes, I see them every day and it is getting a big problem…  lol

Acorn NecklaceandHorse BroochfromHuronValleyVintage

It was in a priority mail box, so I though It would be very simple, but then I opened the box, there was an another box with a lovely red ribbon.

Inside was all padded and my new jewelries were perfectly secured. I didn’t really realize until I opened the box but the color of the horse and the acorns are matching and I really like the fact!

The red horse, they had 4 colors; black, brown, red brown and red. I picked a red one because it goes with from dark to light colors.

The acorn necklace, this is Bakelite reproduction. The leaves are plastic but the acorns are made of wood! It actually makes the necklace much better than just plastic; the warmth and the gloss of wood would suit for autumn and winter wonderfully. 

Yes… I have already done autumn shopping… Oh no…

Anyway, can’t wait for the autumn to come!!

Beautiful finds at Cur.io Vintage

Cur.io Vintage is one of my favorite vintage clothing stores in Waltham. Their selection is always in a terrific condition, clean and beautiful. Sadly they are taking a break from their business for a while but the owner said that they’d open in summer with a big sale. I am looking forward to it truly.

This 60′s fur collar suit is just fantastic. Whenever I wear it, always I get a complement. My husband is not a big fun of animal pattern, but I am so glad I bought this one.

This is my husband’s find. 

Sailing is very popular here, and he does sailing and love ships, finally the maple leave pattern… The tie is just like Massachusetts!!

Tried out 40’s vintage lace glove pattern.

The pattern has originally published  as “ Crochet These gloves for Summer “ in The Australian Women’s Weekly, Saturday 15 September 1945 .

The pattern was pretty simple and it was very easy to increase or decrease to adjust to my hand. 

Faux Flower Earrings and Brooch Set from Bobby From Boston.

This store is very cool, and well-known vintage clothing store in Boston. My husband loves it because they have more men’s clothes than women’s.

A guy at the store said “ I think it belonged to Bobby’s mother. ” 

At work, one customer pointed out my earrings saying “ Spring has come to your ears :) ”

Made in Germany, I assume…

They are beautiful but I have metal allergy and especially my right ear, I got so irritated… I need to buy silicone pad or something to protect my ears… That is the only down side, but other than that they are so beautiful and I am happy to own my first clip-on earrings!

This is how I want to be. 

Big hair, fragile slender body and lots of colors.

Thenibushiki-juban can be a jacket and a skirt as well?

The size is not baggy like modern juban, so it actually fits pretty well.

Sorry to be in public without makeup…

With one of my favorite haori: I love tachibana motifs!!

I don’t think people won’t be happy about me being outside in juban, but the color ensemble is lovely. I love the color of antique kimono.

The haori is also from Hyotan-ya in Osaka.

I made nibushiki-juban from my vintage beautiful silk juban by myself.

I bought this juban from Hyotan-ya, which is an antique/vintage kimono store in Osaka (I’m sad that the store is not open right now, hopefully the owner will start his business again soon!), almost 10 years ago… !!

This is actually my first juban, but it is difficult to wear antique kimono because they are a little too small, or the fabric is worn out and if you pull the fabric too hard, it would break off.

Anyway, I didn’t wan’t to ruin it, and had kept it like a treasure for a long time. But now I’m confident enough to wear them and it is actually in a very good condition than I thought.

But the problem was, as usual, it was short. So I decided to make nibushiki-juban out of it.

I always wear nibushiki-juban, because it is easy to wear, easy to shape the emon nicely.

First, cut it in 2 pieces! Be bold and just cut it!!

It’s better to have the edge a little bit longer so you can sew it up.

Like this.

The bottom part. I searched and referred on the Internet and found some nice instructions to make juban.

色のあるくらし ←The blog has a lot of recipe to make kimono stuff!! Very cool ;)

I love anqitue/vintage kimono, but the size had been always an issue, but now juban, I will be able to buy anything with this technique. It is so exiting!!

Another great finds @garmentdistrict ! I just loved the juicy grapes and the roses from germany :) They also had a 50% off sale this weekend and my husband bought 6 pairs of pants himself lol

I’m getting used to make these vintage inspired hairstyle, also getting used to tease my hair :) だんだんとビンテージ風ビッグヘアが板についてきました。逆毛を立てるのもコツが分かってきたかんじ。 #vintagegirl #vintagehair #vintagehairstyle #victryrolls #pinupstyle #bighair #ootd #ビンテージ #ビンテージヘア #ヘアスタイル #ビクトリーロール #レトロ #逆毛

Thank you so much for your birthday wishes! Here’s how I spent the night :) Red wine, raspberry chocolate, caramel popcorn and a comedy movie in the fresh bed which I didn’t make!! These days I like dry wine and sweet things combination. 

バースディメッセージありがとうございました。お誕生の夜は、赤ワイン、ラズベリーチョコ、キャラメルポップコーンをコメディ映画を観ながらベッドの上でいただきました。最近辛めのワインとスウィーツという組み合わせが好き。 

The dress is from Kinji, Japanese consignment store.　ワンピは大阪のKinjiで買いました。

My very first cardigan :) I’m delighted that it turned out very wearable, fitting well on me and it’s definitely one of my favorite outfit now!! The pattern was very easy to follow, I will try this one again with different motifs in the future. I had thought that it was much better to buy sweaters and cardigans than making them myself, but why not? It is fun :) However, sewing buttons was very tiring, it felt like it never ends!! 初めて立体的な編み物, カーディガンを編みました。いやはや, 自分の才能が恐ろしい, 初めてのでこんなに上手くできるだなんて。。。とか誰も言ってくれないから言っちゃうよ, 自分で言っちゃうよ!! このパターンとても細くインストラクションも付いていて, とても編み易かった。今度は違うモチーフを入れて再挑戦したいと思います。 セーターやカーディガンは買ったほうが良い, 作ってもどうせ手作り感が否めんやろうと思ってたけど, いやはや楽しい。素敵なフリーパターンも沢山あるので毎月1つずつくらい挑戦したい。 しかしボタン付けはちょーめんどくさかって, 一生終わらんのとちゃうかと思った笑。 #handmade #knitting #cardigan #classic #vintage #collagemania #webstapick #ハンドメイド #編み物 #ニッティング #ビンテージ
