An embellished sweater by Citizen Rosebud |
Well, there won't be an outfit post today. I haven't had a chance to photograph any recent activities, because I've been busy trying to set things up over at the new HQ. We are setting up a space to showcase our talents: original designs utilizing recycled and reconstructed fabrics, embellished clothing and hand-made items, and the Citizen Rosebud's collection of beloved vintage.
The real Citizen of Rosebud looks nothing like this virtual photo. |
In a funky, colorful setting, we've created 4 rooms for people who shop local, support artists and love vintage clothing. We have a room holding a terribly long rack packed with $3 dollar bargain vintage, a hall of "Five & Dime," with Citizen goods priced to go at 5 & 10 dollars an item. For the serious vintage collectors, we've prepared a room stuffed FULL of choice vintage pieces, including a 1960 oatmeal wool cape with fur collar that I've been holding onto since summer. I hope it finds someone to love it and take it home. In the Lindsay Rickman studio, we're displaying many of her original designs, including her costumes for a recent Ballet. Her take on the world is so beautiful and original I can't wait to start taking pictures of her pieces to share with you!

Woo hoo - Congratulations on yor "for real" shop and new workspace! How I'd love to browse the choice vintage room, and I look forward to seeing Lindsay Rickman's work from afar through your blog -- esp. the ballet costumes.
Thanks for your kind words on my new haircut. My move was in part inspired by your comment on my goth girl Hallowe'en ensemble -- trying that goth look but toned down for the real world. I'm going to welcome black clothing into my life again, too. I do miss that aesthetic.
Oh I sooo wish I was near you so I could come!!! I think I need that cape!

Rosebud--it sounds like you have created a lovely, creative space...and I would so much rather be there on Friday than grading research papers on "Affluenza"!
Wow this is really great. I admire you for having a goal and making it happen. Best of luck in this endeavor. :)
cloud: Your haircut rocks. Makes me want to have an hairdo instead of my major hair don't, lol. Yeah, embrace your loves; toned down goth just feels right for you.
Joy: if it doesn't sell this weekend I'll be posting it on Etsy. Maybe it's meant to be yours!
Terry, I am really loving the space, and very excited about this venture. Thank you so much for your well wishes. I'll post pics asap to share with you.
