You may have noticed that the Couture Allure website and this blog have been quiet lately. There's a very good reason for that. I have been working very hard over the last couple of months opening 3 retail spaces where you can now buy vintage and vintage-inspired clothing, accessories and jewelry from Couture Allure live and in person! It's been a lot of work, but I am thrilled with the results.
This is the Couture Allure space at Antiques & Uniques in Ozona, FL. Here, you'll find vintage from the 1930s - 1970s mixed with a few modern pieces that have a bohemian vibe.
Vintage hats, scarves, jewelry handbags, shoes and home textiles round out the mix, along with some select vintage furniture finds.
Couture Allure goes tropical at House to Home in Clearwater, FL. Here you'll find vintage clothing and accessories in brighter prints and colors, as well as smaller furniture pieces with a true Floridian flair.
In this space, you'll find lots of 1960s - 70s clothing mixed with vintage-inspired pieces that have that beachy, patio party style.
For the fun and funky, shop my space in Patina Retro and Modern, opening soon on Main St. in Dunedin, FL. Here's a sneak peek at some of the vintage sparkle and shine you'll find there, along with vintage lingerie and accessories. This is where you'll see vintage from the 1950s - 80s to add a little spice and glam to your style.
If you are visiting the Gulf Coast of Florida, I hope you'll stop in to see my retail shops. The website will be back in full swing in September with loads of fabulous vintage finds for fall and winter. I promise!
