Vintage pieces

          I used to raid my grandmother’s house in Arayat when I was a kid. I used to look for her old bags and ask if I could have it. I remember the pink box bag with a plastic handle and a cool lock. I wonder where I put it?

          Jada had her Vintage photo shoot last summer at Mia Criel Studio.  I was still in the process of preparing her clothes and accessories, when she decided she wanted to have her picture taken that week.  She had a feeling one of her front teeth will fall of.  So I just when to her cabinet and grab what I can make use of. I just want her in vintage theme clothes without going over the top…. I mean I still want her to look her age J

           She literally used vintage earrings, since it came from my Auntie Ida. It was in gold with black stone. She wore a checkered dress with gold accent. I remember wearing those when I was in grade school.

 

I just love her shots!

          After the photo shoot, that’s when I realized that she has a doily white dress. The vintage flower headband, necklace and bracelet from Ninang Monette arrived a few days after the photoshoot.  She ordered it from Pia-Creatively Handcrafted Jewelry and Accessories.  So I just took pictures of Jada at home in her grandfather’s chair.

 

          I really wanted her to wear a cute vintage portrait necklace. And I found it at La Vita Bella.  They make personalized vintage necklace and bracelets.  I decided to put my wedding picture and change it to B&W. We got it in Antique Gold with a free heart pendant.
