Mr Price - Project by Cleo Droomer

The peplum trend is one of the hottest trends right now and was everywhere on the catwalk. This trend is flattering on all shapes and  I am currently loving it. So can you imagine my excitement when I found out that Cleo Droomer created some fabulous peplum skirts and dresses for Mr Price Project Limited Editions? I purchased the skirt right away from Mr Price's online shop and got it just in time for Eid Al Adha. I often mix more modern or vintage-inspired pieces with vintage, so I paired the skirt with a black sheer vintage longsleeves shirt, toe cap heels and a neon statement necklace. I've noticed that Mr Price is taking their jewellery collection to the next level. I am so impressed with it that I now have 5 statement necklaces from them. I love that Mr Price is always keeping up with the latest trends. Now, everybody can shop for less :)

Mr Price Online Shop

Almost everybody in South Africa went gaga when Mr Price launched their online shop, even I couldn't help but check it out. It was all over the blogosphere for a whole week. Online shopping is one of my addiction and I'm glad I've got a new addition to my list of favorite shops. The website is impressive and the range that they have is totally to-die-for. It is so easy to navigate and fun to browse through. I ordered 6 items from them and was able to track the status of my order online. I got a necklace, crop top, patterned skinnies, acid-wash leggings and 2 pairs of shoes. I am very happy with my purchase and will definitely use the online shop to buy more goodies to match my vintage threads again.

You can check out Mr Price's Online Shop here and Vintage Junkies Facebook page here. Will be loading new stock in September.

The Return of the Peplum

Peplum is back yet again. It was a major trend in the 50s and then the 80s and now seen again on the runway.  The peplum is an overskirt or ruffle that flares out at the waistline of a skirt, dress or top. It is super flattering and gives you an instant ladylike curves.

Detachable Collars

I've been looking for detachable collars since last year but couldn't find any here in Cape Town. So I have finally decided to do a project with Lucy of The Alteration Lady to make the fashionable ladies of South Africa happy. I have always admired how vintage junkies wear them. It really adds a feminine touch to an outfit. Check out the collars here and fall in love :) You can send me a message at vintagejunkiessa@gmail.com for orders.

Mr. Price: PROJECT Limited Edition Range

I have always been a fan of Mr. Price and I always check out what they have in store. I love how I can easily match their items with vintage threads and I have also noticed that they've been making a lot of vintage-inspired clothing. When their Project Limited Edition range came out, I immediately rushed to the nearest Mr. Price store to get some stunning items from the collection. If I could, I would purchase everything. I fell completely in love with the tribal and aztec prints. I am so impressed with Monsieur Price, I am definitely looking forward to their next Limited Edition range. Check out how I paired their items with vintage clothing. Feel free to have a look at Vintage Junkies' Facebook page to see what other items I got.
