I Love Bows
Some of my favorite items have bows on them. Today I just posted a Jessica McClintock Dress with a huge bow on the back. It would go perfectly with those bow heels I blogged about earlier.

This dress already sold, but I also am in love with the bow on the back

Vintage Fashion Show
When I lived in Hawaii my friend Jackie and I put together a Vintage Fashion Show using clothing I had collected and dresses that she had designed. I want to do another one, but until then..here are some pictures for inspiration. We were lucky to have Mark Lee there to take some rad pictures. I loved it because of the whole vintage fashion/skateboarding idea.

My sister Melanie, my good friend Jennifer and I have a dream of starting a skate magazine called "Apples and Oranges". The name is derived from Jennifer's nickname that locals gave her at the park because of her apple green vans. Since we were inseparable skate buddies I became "oranges". Our goal is to promote skateboarding in a fashionable and artistic way, focusing more on the fun of the hobby rather than the technicalities and tricks in an effort to empower females of all ages to get out there and enjoy skateboarding.
We all have a passion for dressing up, ravaging through vintage finds, and skateboarding. Put them all together and you have a couple girls skating in rad vintage clothing! We encourage guys to do so as well. So much fun!
I recently started selling clothing on Etsy so this blog is a venue to showcase some of my vintage finds, as well as a place to store pictures that may very well be used for our future magazine. Enjoy!!!!
*Please contact me if you have skate and/or vintage pictures I can add to this blog!
special thanks to Jimmy for photographing and videoing
