SS17 wishlist - part one

I love scrolling around for new retro inspired clothing and as the seasons change wonderful new collections pop up eveywhere. So you could call this a Bi-Annual post from now on. Without further a do here is my Spring and Summer wishlist of 2017.

For this wishlist (all parts) I browsed around on TopVintage Retro Boutique Online, Collectif Clothing, Hell Bunny, Lulu Hun, Royal Vintage Shoes and B.A.I.T. footwear. The list is long and already has grown since I started writing this post so I am going to divide it into multiple posts but also try to update them regularly.

Let's start with some gorgeous dresses for this first part. Collectif Clothing has brought out quite the line up for this season and I love almost every piece of it. I wish I had the money to buy the entire line.

1. Caterina Plain Swing Dress in mint green by Collectif Clothing (available for purchase on Collectif and TopVintage) / 2. Jade Plain Swing Dress in light blue by Collectif Clothing (available for purchase on Collectif and TopVintage) / 3. Chloe Candy Gingham Swing Dress by Collectif Clothing / 4. Maddison Floral Swing Dress by Collectif Clothing (TopVintage)

5.Laneway Swing Dress in blue and orange by Dancing Days by Banned (TopVintage) / 6. The Chérie Dress by Vintage Diva by TopVintage (TopVintage) / 7. Lillian Floating Daisis dress by Emily and Finn (TopVintage) / 8. Rhiannon Polkadot Swihng Dress by Hearts and Roses (TopVintage)

Winter Wishlist

Winter is one of the most difficult times for me to find clothes and wear clothes. I'm one of those difficult people that are always cold during the winter wether it's -4 degrees celcius of 8 degrees celcius, I'll always be really cold. So it's important to me that I can wear warm clothes that will keep me warm all day. Sadly me retro clothing collection focused for the bigger part on spring and summer. Cardigans over a sleeveless dress sadly aren't warm enough for me under a coat. 

But thankfully my favorite online store, Topvintage Retro Boutique, has a whole new collection of winter wonderland clothes in warm and heavy fabrics with longer sleeves to get through those cold days. My wallet and husband are going to hate me so much..

I already own the pencil dress version of the green tartan dress by Vixen. It's absolutely gorgeous and I will wear it during the holidays.
Of course you can't walk around in just a dress so some gorgeous jackets and shawls are in place with these looks, as well as some accessories.

I really wish I could buy all these items but it will probably take some times and months. My guess is that I'll be ready for winter by the next one in 2017... 

Much love and until next time...

Summer clothing wishlist

My love for retro clothing is big. So big that ever since I discovered websites like Topvintage, Lindy Bop, MissPoppyWear and many others who sell retro clothing I've been checking them on a regular basis to watch out for sales and new items.

I created a wishlist on Topvintage so that I can't forget which dresses or other clothing items that I like or want and this list gets regular updates. So here is my wishlist for a gorgeous retro summer wardrobe (because mine needs some serious updating). 

As you can see, this summer my favorite color is mint green, it's such a beautiful pastel color and I really the articles Topvintage has in this color. The gingham print is also lovely since it really gives you a retro vibe. You can find all the links to the Topvintage website underneath the collage. 


1. '50s Lori swing dress in black and white gingham by Collectif Clothing/ €54,95
2. '60s Estelle Atomic Cats top in mint green by Heart of Haute / €74,95

What do you think of my clothing picks for this summer? Do you agree with my choice and would you buy any of these items yourself?

Favorite online stores!

Retro & vintage are probably two words everyone knows. In today's day and age they have become so incredibly popular some things have started to go wrong. I think it's very sad that a lot of shops and stores label furniture, clothing, accesories and other things retro or vintage with the result that the prices just go up because of that specific word. But I have to say, personally, I love vintage. The '50s and '60s are incredibly when it comes to clothes and decorations for your house and even though I prefer to wear jeans and a t-shirt every now and then I look at all the pretty "vintage" dresses I have and get one out. Sadly I don't have a lot of money, I still go to school so I'm just poor student I have to skip the really pretty ones from amazing online stores and hope for the best at the cheaper local stores. Yet even if I can't buy the real deal online I still love to look at them. Here are some of my favorite vintage websites. 

Top Vintage Retro Boutique
They say this is Europe's biggest online shop for vintage clothing and I must say they have a lot of beautiful clothes. Every now and then they have a little sale so then it's time for me to start looking since some clothes can be 50% off. The put a lot of time and effort in making beautiful clothes but also in webdesign and the presentation of their products. As you can see in the picture above the site is in Dutch but you have the possibility to change the language to English or German.

I sadly don't own any of their dresses or other clothes but I do know people who own some. The quality of the clothes is very good and they will probably last a good amount of years. I think most of these clothing pieces never get out of style so it's probably worth it spending some money on them. I think they only ship to countries in Europe but you can find all the information on their website.

I love vintage
This is a webshop with vintage clothing from which I already ordered clothing. They are less expensive than Top Vintage but equally as good. The sell vintage pieces from different brands just like Top Vintage but I think the difference in price comes from the fact that they use the lesser known brands that are apparently cheaper. I think they have a very easy website to use. If you want you can shop by decade or just click on clothing. They also spend time on how to present the clothes. You always see the item on a doll but when you click it you can also view some details and see it on a real person 'cause that sometimes looks different.
They sadly only ship to Europe and I think it's even limited to the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany and the UK. The website on the other hand is entirely in English which makes it easier for those who don't understand Dutch.

Bettie Page Clothing













Bettie Page is one of the most famous pin-up girls in probably the entire world and I don't think it surprises anyone that there is a vintage webshop called Bettie Page. It's probably one of the most expensive ones but the clothes are just so beautiful and cute. I think you can also find some of these clothes on Top Vintage and they're usually the most pricey ones.





It's an easy store to browse, they have a lot of different categories, sales and so forth and it's completely in English and they ship world wide.

I also discovered a new one lately, thanks to my friend Valérie from Scribbles of Valérie  it's called Shabby Apple I haven't really browsed around that much on it but I can already say I love it. By the way, Valérie is giving away a gift card from Shappy Apple, be sure to check it out

I think most of these clothing pieces never get out of style so it's probably worth it spending some money on them. Much love!

How about you, do you like vintage? And do shop or look a lot on stores like these? You can share your thoughts in the comment section
