Over the coming days, much MUCH more will be added to Etsy, and we will be extending our Cyber Monday through the week so that you can snatch up your favorite pieces in time for the holiday season! When you checkout, make sure to use the code CYBERMONDAY to enjoy 10% off your purchase. And St. Louis residents can enjoy no shipping by opting for pickup or delivery.
And speaking of the holiday season, stay tuned for an upcoming blog post on holiday decorating with vintage!
Who is Juxtapose? Juxtapose Vintage is a mother and daughter duo, from St. Louis, Missouri who began with the need to furnish a home, continued to furnish a tiny studio apartment, and has expanded into this. Speaking from experience, we know how hard it can be to find that piece that really speaks to the asethetic you're going for (both of us are nearly impossible to please!), but we've found that by stepping back in time, that unique piece is out there, just waiting to come home.
Why Juxtapose Vintage? The name comes from our love of both the modern world design and convenience, and the appreciation of the quirky pieces that you just can't find today. The juxtaposition, so to speak! As with many vintage admirers, we find the brilliance in mixing the modern with the classic, the new and the old. (And Miss Ohio Vintage has been doing it with clothing in the St. Louis area for years.)
This is the first of many posts to this blog. Make sure to keep an eye out for our Etsy in the coming week, and our Facebook for updates on new listings. And make sure to keep a look out at this space for inspirational posts, DIY projects on repurposing all those old things you're not sure what to do with, and general lifestyle posts from the both of us about how we use these vintage items in our every day lives.
We hope to provide you with all that you need to make your home truly yours; encourage you to break out of that department store shell and add a bit of identity to your abode.
Keep checking back! We cannot wait to really get this going!
This past weekend brought the end of the summer festival season for me. I had the privilege of going to Pitchfork for the second time, which got me ready for what was happening in St. Louis the following month. For the third year, the LouFest Music Festival brought a crop of indie rock bands, local restaurants, and vendors for two days in Forest Park.
Again this year Miss Ohio Vintage was part of the Vendor Village, so I got to spend two days selling alongside BelleStyle and Blue Bird Apparel. And when you're surrounded by fashionable ladies, listening to awesome music... it never seems like work!
The highlight of the weekend was seeing The Flaming Lips. There are no words to describe the energy involved in their shows, and being a participant in their live experience. Every single visual element contributes to their show, and I got to snap a few pictures from the photo pit.
Great job on another year, LouFest, can't wait to see what next year brings!
Check out the rest of the pictures from the weekend below.
