retro gone wrong: and just when it was going so well...

It figures, as soon as I anoint ModCloth as the chosen one, it has to go and post this in its one-of-a-kind section:

I'll give you one good guess as to why this hasn't sold yet: it's ugly as sin. Seriously, guys. Let's try to avoid missteps such as this in the future, okay? I love you too much to see you hurting like this.

a little tip, because i care

As I mentioned before, I'm a huge fan of ModCloth, and while their vintage section usually sells out faster than you can blink, there's one item still kicking around that deserves notice:

Called the "Day at the Beach" scarf, this 1980s piece is the perfect companion to that little red number I posted about last week. Scoop it up before someone else does!

As I eagerly anticipate my spring break that will be spent in balmy upstate New York, I can't help but fantacize about what it would be like were I one of the lucky girls who could afford to jet down to Cancun for the week. And with that wishful thinking in mind, I'd like to post this awesome retro-inspired swimsuit, found on ModCloth.com:



Unfortunately, all of ModCloth's suits in this style are currently sold out (I know, I know, I'm such a tease), but the site is really great about restocking in-demand items, so be sure to click the "Notify Me" link on the page if you'd like an email when they get more in.

ModCloth is one of my favorite sites, since it features lots of funky indie and one-of-a-kind vintage clothes, so you'll be seeing me link a lot to them in the coming weeks. Be prepared to have your fashion world ROCKED, kids.
