Well well well, it is finally time I opened up my vintage shop to the public: I have titled it Milk + Honey
The name was inspired by the wonderful Gracie who is a fellow photographer and the blogger behind "Things to smile about". She suggested a few names including Honey and jam and Milky moon vintage. I kind of just combined these to be "Milk + Honey". As it so happens, Gracie has her own etsy that you should all check out at: goosie gander. Right now she has a few letter sets that are precious! As her thank you prize for helping me with the naming, I'm giving her $25 to my shop (redeemable for as long at the shop is open, so no rush). Thanks for all the great suggestions from everyone else though. If you were hoping for a discount of some sort, don't be too bummed yet. I'm going to have more offers soon (especially some that are specifically for my twitter followers in the near future, hint hint)
Now, I originally had every intention of creating a website on my own that was not through Etsy. However, that was going to take way way way longer. I probably wouldn't have gotten anything together until mid-July. If everything goes well with this etsy shop, I will definitely work on opening up an actual website, though.
There are only about 12 listings so far (my favorite item being this pair of boots, I'm obsessed with roper boots!) not a huge variety in sizes yet, but I promise there will be more soon! I have a big box full of shoes I need to go through and plenty of clothes that I've not yet listed. I plan on updating each week so this is just a small portion of the summer. It also just so happens that the items I picked to put up first happened to be some of the more expensive things I have. There will be many more listings for under $20 coming soon!
If you have any size/item/etc requests, then let me know and I will happily keep my eyes out. Then if I find what you've wanted I can reserve it for you in my shop.
Also, feel free to ignore that my face looks less than thrilled. I wasn't too happy about modeling the clothes and photographing at the same time, but it works... Anyway, I've been going to sleep before midnight the past few days, so I'll go do that now. I'll probably add a few more things to the shop tomorrow.

Thanks again, Gracie! I couldn't find your email, so drop me one and I'll give you the information about how the etsy transaction will work!
