   Beautiful vintage pieces! I love your lipstick tube! The detail on the cover is beautiful and the shade of coral is fantastic. Great treasures you pick up. Love the structure of your purse too!

   Liking the new lipstick tube! I love vintage and dont know what I would do without it. Back in the day I could never find dresses with the right length and shape and shopping on the High St. was so frustrating but vintage made me appreciate my figure a whole lot more. I still love high st for stuff like shoes, maxi skirts etc- but when I want that killer dress, jewelry, bag, belt…its Vintage all the way!
   1. caroline July 31, 2013 at 7:27 am

      Agreed!!! I also love how the quality seems so much better. That little tube has been around for ages as has the bag and they are both in great condition!

    I love mixing vintage into my wardrobe. That lipstick tube is gorgeous. Even if it just sat on my dresser it is a great find!
    1. caroline July 31, 2013 at 7:31 am

       Ha! It was on my dresser for months until I figured out how to put a lipstick in it!

    Those are indeed very pretty containers, love the lipstick holder. Sure if they made them that way today, and allowed us to only by refills, the world could become a better place with a lot less litter!
    Nice post !

    I love how you sort of did a DIY to turn the vintage lipstick tube into one that you can use for every day use. I would of never thought to buy a vintage tube and put in new lipstick! <3

    It’s good to mix it up a little with a contemporary outfit and maybe a a vintage piece of jewellery. Your bag is gorgeous.
