Viva Vintage: From Rice and Beans Vintage
So I am an admitted novice when it comes to vintage shopping, especially when there are many women that I know can find some great gems. So, I always feel a bit under qualified when it comes to giving advice and speaking about vintage clothing and shopping. This is why I’m happy that Sarah, of Rice and Beans Vintage, has agreed to be a guest blogger and has written a wonderful guest post with some great tips about vintage and shopping. Check out Sarah’s wonderful words of wisdom on below and also check out some of the items available from her shop:
I love vintage clothing, not because it is trendy, but because it has history, depth, and tells a story. I’m not particularly partial to any one era or dressing head to toe in vintage but am drawn more to mixing eras and coming up with a completely fresh and interesting look. The fantastic thing about vintage is that it allows you to have a look all your own. While not every piece is “one of a kind” you can be confident that your cubical neighbor or best friend won’t be wearing the same thing as you when you purchase vintage and there is a pretty good chance they will want to know where you bought it!

THANK YOU for the tips. I’m scared to admit that I’m scared of vintage! I used to be a BIG vintage thrift shopper, mostly mining late 50s/early 60s looks. I think it all came off a little costume-y. Then, I got into the 90s minimalism thing, and more recently, I went super futuristic with the wardrobe. So now I’m ready to mix up the vintage and the new stuff… I need someone to help me
This is great. I love vintage for the same reasons you do. It’s so nice to have a piece of history! x
wow gorgeous pieces!!
These are great pieces! I especially like that Morrocan suit. I agree that vintage shopping can be fun, and I have found many treasures with it.
Interesting entry with some good points. Will definetly come back here and take a look again for future articles. Dave.
