I read about your fantastic ‘Vintage Give Aay Contest’ at the blogg Dreamlovely. It’s really a great idea to make up such a contest!

I really would like to win your contest, because I’m really addicted to vintage clothing. Unfortunatelly, I live in a Dutch village which is surrounded by farmers. So I am not in the position to do some vintage shopping every now and then. But when I get the chance to go to some cute little vintage stores in Amsterdam or Rotterdam, I stay there untill they have to force me out! Everytime I visit those stores, I’m leaving with almost every little precious thing the store had to offer.

I like vintage clothing so much, because it feels that you are wearing a ’story’ instead of just some random piece of clothing. It has some kind of ‘glow’ on it, because of the story behind the piece.
I feel like a vintage little Goddess when I’m wearing my favourite vintage dress, just because I can feel the beauty of the person who wore the dress before me. I think she must be a natural beauty who loved to dress outstanding, chique and sweet.

Besides that, it is rather great that almost every vintage item is unique in its own way. The fact that no one else in the world ownes a piece like you might have is the most wonderfull feeling in the world. It makes the item special: even the misfits of vintage have this special ‘gift’.

So I hope you can understand my ‘Vintage Love’ a little bit better now, and I’m really hoping that you will think of me when you pick the winner of your ‘Vintage Give Away Contest’.

Thank you in anticipation!

Lots of love,

since there is no vintage shops in my little town I am always trying to find vintage from thrift stores and flee markets, and I´ve found some amazing stuff, like 60s brown pepita coat by Kaunotar, 60s leather shoes, and many fab pieces from the 70s and 80s like real 70s pearl colored disco heels,( U can see them in my latest post)

Totally besides the point, do you mind if I draw a portrait of you? You can see some of my work here: dreamhuntress.deviantart.com

Thank you so much for your consideration!

I would love to be entered for this giveaway! I made a commitment last year to buy only vintage and second-hand, and so far I haven’t broken it. I live in New Zealand and have a blog dedicated to recording my vintage finds and the way I remix them (and also to my writing, but that’s another story). I think wearing vintage is a great way to recycle, to save money, to express your individuality (as most pieces are one-of-a-kind) and revitalise beautiful clothes that would otherwise sit in a closet gathering moth-holes.

I hope I can be considered for this lovely giveaway.
Love.

I would love to win because vintage is like bodyart to me + one day I want to be the cool grannie with great style and this opportunity would jumpstart my humble collection Thanks!
