shop showcase: capsule vintage

Capsule Vintage has quickly become one of my favorite go-to vintage shops on Etsy, and you know it's because of all those lace and floral dresses calling my name. The lovely curly haired proprietress, Sonja, is a friend of mine from the west coast and a face that I dearly miss. She's also a fellow collector of pretty, feminine pieces with an eye towards the 1950's, 60's and 70's. Lucky for both of us she is offering 15% off the entire shop for Fancy Fine readers using the code FANCYFINE15! A lovely treat, and just in time to snag a few goodies for the upcoming holiday (doesn't someone need to wear this dress to a 4th of July picnic?!). These gorgeous photos are from the current Capsule Vintage lookbook and make me desperately miss Northern California with its perfect, perfect light. At least I can live vicariously through Sonja!

summer lookbook: house of maryanne vintage

The always fantastic House of Maryanne Vintage has inspired once again, this time in the form of an adorable summer lookbook titled 'Good Vibrations.' The punchy colors, sweet vintage pieces and super cute models are all making me long for true summer weather and some pretty new clothes to celebrate! Fortunately HoM has opened an Etsy shop full of perfect finds at reasonable prices and there is something for everyone. In addition to selling vintage, the lovely proprietress Maryanne also creates fun woven tapestries that look like lucky vintage finds but are all handmade with love. The girl is talented, what can I say?

shop showcase: childlike empress vintage

Happy Easter, friends! As a little treat I would like to introduce you to the wonderful vintage shop Childlike Empress. The proprietress, a lovely gal named Helen who resides in Western Australia, is not satisfied with the usual boring product images and instead creates these adorably kooky collages to show off her magical collection of pieces from the 1950's through the 1990's. The dresses she finds are particularly lovely, the kind of colorfully feminine frocks that I can't get enough of. Take a peek at her shop and perhaps treat yourself to an Easter present with a 30% discount just for Fancy Fine readers, just use the code 'FANCIEST' at checkout!

shop showcase: omnia vintage

Omnia Vintage has long been one of my favorite Etsy shops, a go-to source for special vintage pieces that are one of a kind and perfectly off-kilter. I have quite a collection of wonderful bags from Omnia and I'm always finding another two or three that I absolutely must add to my collection (most recently this amazing 1960's tote). The shop is also brimming with belts, shoes, and clothing, but I think the bags are the highlight. It's a good thing the shop is constantly updated with new finds because these pieces tend to be snatched up quickly! Take a peek and treat your vintage obsessed self to a present this holiday.

among the flowers

Adored Vintage has long been one of my favorite online vintage shops and this gorgeous lookbook explains everything. The clothes, the styling, the colors, the feminine mood... it's something I will go back to again and again for inspiration. There is something wonderfully timeless about these images and I know that I will find them just as beautiful in several years as I do at this moment.

shop showcase: dear golden vintage

Dear Golden Vintage holds a rather special place in this vintage-obsessed girl's heart. Every new piece added to the shop stirs up my love a bit more, especially the impeccable dresses. It's as though everything was chosen for the sole purpose of making me drool all over my keyboard. Needless to say I end up clicking that 'favorite' button quite a bit when perusing the shop! And luckily for you and me Dear Golden is offering 20% off the entire shop using the code FANCYGOLDEN, through December 4th. I've had my eye on this sweet little 1960's frock for a while now, perhaps it's the perfect moment to buy myself an early Christmas gift? 'Tis the season to shop small and support your favorite Etsy sellers!

shop showcase: crush vintage

Crush Vintage has been on my favorites list for a long time now, and you can see why just from a quick glance at all the lace, bows, and dreamy colors. The shop is currently stocked with the perfect assortment of feminine party dresses, perfect little coats, adorable cardigans, and plenty more. I hardly need any more clothes in my life but being trapped in this storm sure does make a bit of online treasure hunting even more appealing! And lucky for me and you, Crush Vintage is offering 15% off everything in the shop using the code FANCYFINE15 through November 3rd. I've got my eye on one of the lace beauties below, what do you fancy?
