  1. This was a really tough choice, but I think my absolute favorite item has to be the Vintage 1960s Taupe Safari Duster Shirt Dress. The 1980s Cutout Sheath Dress is a close second…what an amazing shop!

  2. It's all so lovely, but I'd have to go for the 'Vintage Grosgrain Navy Blue and White Pillbox Hat with a Bow', it's so adorable, and would look great with a nautical style playsuit!

  3. The Sea Blue Sailor Jacket stood out to me. It reminds me of reading Paddington Bear as a kid. A cute little rain jacket in such a bright color and with toggles — how whimsical!

  7. I'm a sucker for anything classic and conservative, which is why the plaid pleated skirt caught my eye. In a world where people wear sweat pants in public, dressing conservatively has become provocative. That blouse is also a perfect compliment to the tones.

  8. I love the Vintage 1960s Taupe Safari Duster Shirt Dress…it's so cute and would be so easy to change up for the different seasons!

  12. What a delightful giveaway! My absolute favourite item in the shop is this blazer [http://www.etsy.com/listing/49898096/vintage-80s-horizontal-woven-print-long] oh gosh, I want it so much. It reminds me of that dress/skirt that was in ModCloth made by BB Dakota. I would totally dress up all my band tees & body-con skirts with this!

  13. Wow, this is a great shop! I love the high-waisted green/black kaleidoscope skirt, here's hoping it would love me back and fit! Those shiny jazz pants are pretty rad as well.

  14. Woah! This is torture! I'm avoiding Etsy at the moment because I'm saving for my friend Mia's hen party! But, if I was to buy anything it would have to be the mismatch button dress, which is sooo cute! The boho tent blouse is also beyond amazing…
