Find of the day

At the risk of turning this blog into my vintage vice report, I'd like to continue the momentum of my new-found passion for photographing and sharing my retro treasures. Here's my find of the day:

A shiny, patent-leather, long strap purse with a decidedly yester-feel. My poor orange, patent-leather purse, which I use nearly every day, is looking like it could use a break. But this "new" treasure may be able to fill in for a bit! Both purses were found at one of my top 5 all-time favorite used goods stores, the The Five and Dime Antique Mall (more commonly known as "Woolworth's"), for under $10.

So, how've you been? I've been better--school is dragging along and dragging me down. I have been in need of a new project to throw some excitement into my day dreams, and this weekend the inspiration arrived! As I mentioned previously, I have a bit of a fetish for vintage stuff. Yesterday I bought a few more things and realized: my collection is getting a little out of control! What to do? Well, yeah.. shoot it!

Eureka Street by LissaFudge is birthed. I hope you enjoy perusing my thrift store bargains and get inspired to do some hunting for your own previously owned treasures!
