Pretty Dress Update and thoughts

It has been a little tricky recently for me to be motivated about posting vintage to my shop.I have SO many dresses and oodles of funky purses and shoes... just little time to take Z photos
....and lack of a model. Yet here they are regardless.
APPLESEED VINTAGE

I really appreciate seeing photos of the clothing on a model when I purchase online, so you can really understand the style and fit. I try my hardest to post pictures of clothing being modeled. This happens to be my newest model Lily.

Ok, so she is my little sister but you would not believe how many photos I had to take just to get 5 decent ones. I swear she was twirling around in the dresses like a little girl playing dress up...and then she attempted to take some to wear that night. ha you gotta love her though.. full of energy.

I cannot wait until I move and get everything organized so I can post on a regular schedule.
I hope everyone is having a splendid Tuesday.
It is very hot here in Tuscaloosa, so I am staying inside writing letters and getting packages together for my new pin pals.

AppleSeed Shop Update

Have a super Wednesday.

Sizzlin Summer- A few of my favorites.

It is getting super hot here in Tuscaloosa. Fashion is quickly thrown out of the window for the best way to keep cool. Yeah, it would be nice to wear one of my hundreds of floral scarfs around my neck to look extra pretty, or those ankle boots that lace up, but its just not practical. So, I have been searching all over the place for some new summer outfits and swimsuits. I am usually a very loyal thrift shopper and find it hard to spend over $5 for a shirt or skirt. I guess you could say the thrift store has spoiled me in a way. Its pretty funny, I actually can not remember the last time I went into a large shopping center, unless of course I needed new bras and undies. My friends are always amazed that almost everything I own comes from the thrift store. Anyway, long story short there are a few items I have been eying, I am just waiting for the perfect occasion to purchase them. Graduation present for myself maybe?

Spring Vintage Photoshoot for the shop

Yesterday I ventured out to the beautiful outskirts of Tuscaloosa with two of my lovely friends! Mary Catherine Moody modeled clothes for my shop while Rachael Roberts photographed. Mary was a great model, and made it pretty easy to get great shots and still have an amazing time. All of the clothes you see below are for sale on my Etsy site. Mary and Rachel both have incredible websites and blogs. Mary is a fashion designer and a very talented artist and model, check out her blog here. Rachel Roberts took all of these amazing photos. She is available for wedding, event, and individual photography. Just shoot her an email. renegaderoberts@gmail.com

Or you can check out her great work here.

I hope you enjoy these photos. Which ones are your favorite?
OH and don't forget, everything you see is available for purchase at
The AppleSeed.

Thank you so much to my wonderfully talented friends for making this photo shoot a success.
