Flea Market Goodness



This is a lovely two piece set I found at the flea market here in town for a steal. I'm finding lately that the flea market is by far the best place to shop for vintage. You can almost always get it for a great price and you get to hunt for just what you want. If I'm being completely honest I have also become a little addicted to the thrill of the chase, so whenever I can make it out to the flea market, I do.


I have a question to ask you all. Do you like the big photos better or the small ones? I started trying to make all my photos the same size (horizontal and vertical) but I'm still unsure if I like the size. What do you think?

  2. Really cute! And I like the big photos as well. I like to see details and I love when I don't have to enlarge them myself (lazy I know, but the less work I have to do when catching up on my blogroll while rocking a fussy baby the better).

  13. I prefer the big pictures, it's easier to study the outfits that way. The set is absolutely wonderful! you (over there) are so lucky to be able to find these sort of things on fleamarkets, here in Denmark the country is so small (5,6 mill) that there isn't much vintage left and people used to use their clothes until they fell apart. Most of the clothes we can buy in shops are american (it is quite funny to think that most of my clothes have traveled longer than I ever have). by the way your lipstick is gorgeous on you!

  15. Big photos are best, it shows up the detail and that outfit is lovely, I completely understand the addiction to the 'thrill of the chase' that's definately the part I like best. Nothing beats an amazing find somewhere unexpected :)

  16. The large size photos make it so much easier to see outfit details. That two-piece outfit is perfect for you - nothing beats scoring a great bargain like that at a flea market!

  17. Stellar find, gorgeous gal! I just love the design of this set. The two shades of yellow on the skirt really jumps out at you and makes me think a bit of venetian blinds with glorious summertime sunshine radiating through them.

  19. When I first glanced at this post, I thought it said "Flea Market Goddess," which I suppose is correct as well.

  21. that is really gorgeous! i love the color combo too. and i like all big photos. Your photos are so lovely, it's nice to see them larger.

  22. What an amazing find! Man I wish flea markets here had stuff like this. Toronto is very over priced for vintage and most of our flea markets carry 1980's vintage.

    As for the size of images, I have been debating that on my own blog. I like the bigger size and that is because I don't have to click on the image to see it larger (I'm so lazy lol!) or for my blog "my readers" don't have to take an extra step to see my picture. As I learned in marketing, keep things to as few steps as possible (even a simple click) makes a big difference for your reader. Besides is just looks so nice with the larger photos I think :)
