post valentines weekend...

 

What a long, relaxing weekend...in the mist of Valentines day, President's day and every other normal day, I spent time drinking herbal tea, eating chocolate and watching old movies. On Sunday, I drove to the antique capital of the south...Chamblee, Ga. It's a small, southern charming town located just north of Atlanta. It was nice browsing the 20,000 sq ft mall, however I was slightly disappointed that the other 14 antique shops were unfortunately closed on Sunday's....but at least I did find some lovely goodies for myself!
I also added a few gorgeous wicker handbags and a snakeskin purse to the store last night...they are beyond rare and unique! I was very tempted on keeping all 3 for myself, especially the red one but I figured someone else could give 'her' a better home.
As for the white handbags, they should be in the shop by this evening.
How did you spend your Valentines weekend?

Saturday Morning Scout...







I hope everyone weekend is off to a wonderful start! Mine is surely going well. Today my mom and I managed to venture off to this huge estate sale in Atlanta, Georgia...earlier this morning.
It was absolutely F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S! There were items consisting of the 1920s era to the earlier 1970s. This particular lady, who hosted this private event, has collected tons of alligator handbags, eel skin clutches, Italian made shoes, marvelous designer wallets and hand beaded cardigans from as early as the 1920s! It was definitely an event any fashion lover would have enjoyed...but no worries...Mod Human will be adding the fabulous pieces we scored, to the shop over the next few days.



Above photos are a 'preview' of the goodies to come :)

Prim and Proper....


I hope everyone is off to great start this week! Too bad I can't say the same for myself :( I have been terribly lazy and way to comfortable to accomplish anything today...except for mailing off the ton of orders we had over the weekend. As a matter of fact...with that being said...okay maybe I'm being way too hard on myself.

Also, a new section has been created and added to the shop today. The name?...'Prim and Proper'....which will feature RARE & LUXURIOUS estate items from the 1920s-1950s decades. The price points will begin at $124+. I find this to be very exciting and a new chapter for Mod Human! I hope you love the new inventory to come, just as much as I do :)

Lazy Sunday Afternoon...


It's a gloomy day on this side of the world...a great day to wrap up in a cozy blanket and watch movies....I'm thinking of checking out the Knowing...I heard it's pretty good..

Well, I just added another Mod Human favorite to the shop..in honor of 'gloomy days.' It's a 1970s Jordache Rain Coat! Very comfy, cozy and cute :) This one takes be back to my childhood...

Happy Birthday



Today was fun!
I conducted a mini photo-shoot..taking pictures of some new inventory waiting to be added to the store. The updates will be complete by tomorrow afternoon and another batch will be loaded by midnight.
Also...today was my father's birthday :)
We celebrated this special day with cake, wine and presents...which also happens to also be a few of my favorite things. He really enjoyed himself and it was nice to see him happy. My father is a wonderful hard-working man, that deserves a celebration everyday :)
Happy Birthday Daddy!

Classy and Fabulous

With tons of vintage handbags to choose from, surly there is something for everyone. However I must say, there is something elegant about a little black purse.

Satchels and Mini Messengers




I just listed two handbags in the shop.
One is a 1970s Capezio...which has a doctor satchel shape and removable shoulder strap. The other handbag is a gorgeous slate grey leather, mini messenger...which can be worn across the body. Both handbags are superb and are perfect for everyday wear and the Fall months to come.

These are a few of the items that were just added to the shop :)
I love the Betty Davis sunglasses because of the large round shape...and the leather mini satchel is way too cute. The mustard weekend bag...well I seriously contemplated on keeping it for myself! It's chic and modern.
I hope you love these treasures as much as I do :)

lunch with grandma

I had a lunch date with grand-ma today. We ate at a cute little 'hidden gem' called Oz Pizza in downtown Fairburn, GA...sooo' much fun and the pizza was delicious :)
Afterwards, we decided to browse a few antique flea markets too...grand-ma tried on some of the most amazing retro hats while I went back and forth on deciding to purchase this unique tapestry shoulder bag.

Also, I found a bunch of really cute vintage handbags, sunglasses and train cases for the shop today! I will be cleaning them up, taking photographs and adding each item to the shop tomorrow (Tuesday)...& through out the rest of the week...so please make sure to check to shop daily for new updates :)

Whimsical aprons for baking





These adorable aprons are sweet for whipping up delicious cupcakes and cooking amazing new dishes!
Idea: Retro aprons can also be worn as tops in the summer :)
These aprons are available in the store and even better....they are on sale!
Please see the Summer Clearance section

markdowns = summer clearance


I marked down a small lot of vintage items today...please see the Summer CLEARANCE section of the store. Most of these listings will be ending soon and I wanted to make it easier for vintage lovers (like yourself) to find these items before they are gone forever....as most of you already know, I do not list items for a second time around in the shop :(
There is a nice selection of traincases, retro aprons and even a cool vintage camera for snapping all of your favorite summer vacation moments!

Global warming is definitely kicking our butt right now....this just might be the hottest summer in history!
Usually I'm enjoying the warm weather on the golf course or at the beach, but lately it seems like all I want to do is stay inside my air conditioned casa :)

As for Mod Human news....I thought it would be a good idea to run the $9.99 Handbag Sale just a tad bit longer...and give all of my fellow lazy summer bums (like myself) a chance to participate in the sale.
Now It's time for my favorite summer treat...ICE CREAM :)
















6.18.2009




I just listed three really cute vintage SATCHELS in the store. One is a really cool oversized leather satchel by Capezio....It's absolutely amazing! Great for carrying alot of items and keeping everything organized. Another one is a vintage 1970s
'tote' style satchel and lastly we have a 1980s 'mini' satchel!
