Salvage ATL

Ello! Ello! Its Salvage ATL time of the year again so spring is definitely here. I sure spotted some new faces and vendors this time around at the Salvage fair and very interesting 'curios'. This morning I left with strict instructions not to buy anything :( We have a rather daunting task of transporting our (my) large curio collection (as AD called my lovely treasures!) to NYC in less that two months. I am not allowed to buy anything besides food until end of June. It is however hard to resist such a wonderful spread of vintage items and beautifully reconstructed jewelry pieces, not to mention super friendly store owners. I did secretly get a big sunflower brooch, something I wanted for a long time...shhh....

::Highlights::

I absolutely loved the jewelry pieces from Sincerely Smitten, plus the name has a nice ring to it! Recycled eye testing glass, old watches and all things vintage recycled into lovely pendants and delicately put together. 

Foxboxes had some great products, my favorite being the map flasks. Great personalized present idea for a bachelor night or wedding favors for guys :) 

Sarah Watts has some really cool vintagesque aprons, screen printed tea towels and posters for the kitchen. I can't wait to get some stuff from here when we make our cozy curio filled home!  

I finally got to wear my new Betty Draper dress that I bought in Thailand. The blue pointy suede shoes were an unbelievable $4 from Little Five! We just celebrated our first anniversary, and sure enough AD has got to know me a lot better :) He got me the pearl tea pot pendant that I am so obsessed with... Funnily after Salvage we went for some bubble tea at Honey Bubble, my new tea haunt. 

PS: The very last picture is mind boggling I know. It is a cup with ice tea bubbles inside an ice cube, which made my friend Uma (a fellow bubble mania enthusiast) really excited! 

PSS:: Thanks you James for modelling! I like the aloof 'look away' pose :)

Summer Retrology

Going retro this summer? We peek into our favorite cartoon character Betty Boo's wardrobe, and raid some of her looks! Miss Krunali wears a cute sweetheart neck polka dot top from Anthropologie. Throw on a pair of bright patent shoes to add some color. If the weather is anything like it is in Hotlanta, an over sized hat is very essential along with a trench option just in case it rains! This lampshade hat is made from 100% raffia and is easily fold-able to carry in your bag. The printed trench coat works wonderfully with the polka dots to add some pattern blocking.

New Years Fashion Resolutions

We are back, after a wonderfully long, super hyper holiday and a crazy New Years in Goa! Hope you had a Fash New Years lovelies. Besides sitting on our ass in the sun we have been up to some fashion mischief ourselves...yes we have been shooting some of our new purchases on some fab beaches in the Arabian sea...but first up lets focus on our resolution this year...The Fashington Press has taken some major decisions to focus more on DIY hand crafted fashion items, recycling and vintage pieces to keep up with the recession that doesn't seem to leave us. Be sure to see clothes previously showcased on our blog, but in a brand new way, you wont even notice! Its all about re-styling, recycling and being creative. First up is this folk hand crafted jumper worn as a dress with bright red tights...work this look further with a hobo felt hat and a woolen handbag.
