Perennial Vintage Supply

Vintage Airport Photo

I scrolled through to this photo the other day on Facebook. If only people dressed like this when flying anymore. They treated flying like it really was special back then.

Guess what? It's still special! Getting from one place to another via an airplane is remarkable.

I'm off to visit a great friend of mine who now lives in Florida, today.

While I may not look like this, I sure won't be wearing slippers or sweats. Ha. Methinks this is early, '60s? Perhaps late '50s.

A little class goes a long way. (First class, that is...)

Bon voyage!

Vintage Haul │ Thrifted Finds October 22, 2024

Yesterday's finds were a lively but traditional bunch.

vintage '90s denim pair of Ralph Lauren overalls
vintage '90s denim jacket
vintage '80s /'90s sweatshirt
vintage '90s belt
vintage '80s San Diego mug

This color scheme makes me happy. I love denim and sell a lot of denim, so being able to keep up with that desire for my shop makes it a great day. That mug is the wild card of the bunch. Ha.

Headed to the shop ASAP.

Have a great rest of your week. ♥

Fall Among Us 2024

The temperatures are finally where they should be. Mornings in the '40s, highs in the '70s (and dropping) - that's the kind of fall I'm ready for and have eagerly anticipated.

The morning sunrise through the trees always makes me happy. Such glorious light; such impressive appearances from such unassuming trees along my trails. It's quite miraculous.

Happy fall, everyone. Enjoy your weekend.

Vintage '80s Levi's Denim Jacket with Sherpa Lining

My latest Levi’s acquisition is this beautiful faux sherpa-lined denim trucker jacket. Levi's has been making the "trucker type 3" style for almost 60 years. The sherpa-lined ones are their winter line edition of the trucker jacket.

I’ve only thrifted one other in the last 14 years. While they may seem common online, sourcing them in the wild is quite difficult. It’s like discovering a rare rhino. They seem common because everyone knows about them but are in fact very elusive.

I own a similar one. They are incredibly warm and stylish. This one is from the 1980s and is in excellent condition. It's a men's small that can also act as a women's medium and it's in the shop.
