It’s Retro, Baby

August 14, 2012 3 Comments

Last year I told you all about my excitement for an event planned at Orchard Art House.

The night ended up exceeding my expectations (and of course I did a little shopping – check out the belt I purchased from Circa Vintage!).

I had so much fun the last time around that I decided to join in, and at this year’s Retro Benefit I’ll be selling Wild Ruffle jewelry, with this girl hanging out at my table too. Also coming along for the ride are Ashley Barlow, Circa Vintage, Snowy Owl Baby, Marcia Siggelkow’s vintage-themed children’s items (see picture below), and more.

Wanna know the best part? Aside from the beautiful setting – the amazing lofted studio of ekate designs set against a lakeside backdrop – the best part is that the entire evening benefits Urban Homeworks, an organization dedicated to rebuilding neighborhoods in disadvantaged areas of the Twin Cities.

Wanna know where to buy a ticket? Simply head here – tickets are $10 in advance, and $12 at the door.

Wanna know when to be there? Head to the Orchard Art House (22490 Murray St. Excelsior, MN 55331) on Saturday, August 25th any time between 2-7 pm. Can’t wait to see you there!

  • I’m 4 days into our Florida family vacation, and I am loving this time with my family. Disney was a wee bit crazy, with 90 degree temps and blazing sun both days. But hey – it could be snowing! I’ll take it. Now we’re just relaxing on the beach, and eating as much ice cream… [Continue Reading]

  • Sometimes it’s the little details that make the outfit. The flutter sleeve. The ombre earring. A super tall pair of shoes. And my little four year old daughter capturing it all on film. Remember when I shared this? Hard to believe a full school year has already passed! top – via swap, earrings – H&M,… [Continue Reading]

  • It should come to no surprise to anyone that I have a thing for shoes. I’ve shared my love for my favorite ones here as well as my tips for organizing them.
