YO! Just a quick little post / PSA about the fact that I am going to be selling my vintage stock in person at Boston Hassle's Black Market flea market this Saturday, Dec 13 at the Cambridge Elks Lodge in Cambridge. The event goes from 12-6pm and is guaranteed to be a blast and a half! This is the 2nd Black Market that they've had and I was a vendor at the first one and it was soooo much fun. If you live in Massachusetts / New England, come on down and hang!

ALSO I got my driver's license today. Praise da lord. So now I can drive myself to this shindig!!! So happy.

FB event is herreeee

Hi there! So you may have noticed that I've been the worst when it comes to this blog and the shop and have barely updated as of late! I have (somewhat) of a good reason though, in the last two months I moved halfway across the country from Boston to Bloomington, Indiana to start working for a great company! As I've been trying to settle in to my new town, new apartment, new job (new everything), I  just wasn't that inspired to blog or update the store. Plus I was totally mourning being separated from my favorite place to find vintage back home.


Not surprisingly, though I started to miss the hunt of thrifting, my wardrobe felt super stale (I was literally wearing my favorite black circle mini skirt like 4 days a week), and overall was just feeling inspired by fashion in general. Which then of course affected how I felt about my appearance and so on and so forth. Luckily though, the vintage bug bit once again after I made an effort to start finding vintage here in Indiana and luckily if you hunt hard enough great vintage can be found anywhere. Soooo I'm feeling super good about this blog and the shop once again and have tons of ideas and clothes to share, so stay tuned. I'm planning on taking pictures of some of the new shop merchandise that I have later today too (read when I'm less hungover). In the meantime here are some pics from my time in Bloomington thus far and don't forget to follow Dripping Dream Vintage on Facebook and Instagram for the latest and greatest.

Hi! I wanted to share some new items that I have added to the shop since I've last posted on here. Keep your eyes peeled too because there's a truckload of additional items that I need to add/photograph, including something that I am really excited about.... Dripping Dream Vintage menswear! Woo!

Also are there any items that you particularly want me to add? Certain styles, colors, fabrics, etc that you are really into right now? Let me know and I will keep my eyes peeled during my next buy!

Earlier today I was listening to the band Summer Camp and then was looking through their album covers and was really struck by how much I love the aesthetic of their early singles and EPs. There is something so romantic about the stock images from the '60s,'70s and '80s they use-they remind of old pictures of my parents when they were younger!





So I was looking at these covers and started coming up with so much outfit inspiration of looks I could wear with pieces I already own! Namely bell bottoms, bell sleeves, floral crop tops and maxi skirts and wooden clogs. Hopefully you will find some inspiration too!


Here are some new things that have been added to the shop lately!

Hey guys! Happy Thursday! Can you believe it's Thursday already? This week is flying by, which is awesome! Today I'm going to working on my post-graduation job search (woo!), forcing myself to go to the gym and then I have one class later this afternoon. In an ideal world I will also have time to stop by the thrift store that is up the street from me, but we'll see if that happens. If not, I can always stop by this weekend. I feel like I haven't been thrifting in so long, but then I remembered I went less than a week ago. I think thoughts like that might be a sign that I have a *problem*, but whatever, I'm shopping for the shop!


I'm still in bed as I write this. I'm listening to the album The Buried Life by the band Medicine right now and IT'S SO GOOD. I had it on repeat all day yesterday, which isn't something I usually do with albums. If you like shoegaze and My Bloody Valentine, definitely check it out! It reminds me a lot of the new My Bloody Valentine record, m b v, which is kind of weird though because The Buried Life came out in 1993. This record took me a few listens to totally "get", so don't give up on it if you don't like it at first! I swear, it is brilliant-that brilliance is just a little slow to unveil itself!

Anyways... I thought I'd just do a quick shop update because I've added some new stuff since I last posted. I still have tons more to list, and I'm trying to sustain motivation and get everything added, so stay tuned!

Hi Everyone! Happy Friday! It snowed here in Boston today so I am staying in this evening and getting excited to watch the newest episode of Shark Tank haha. Tomorrow night I'm seeing Veronica Falls (as I mentioned previously) along with the band Cold Showers, who I also love and I can't wait! I wanted to share a few new vintage items that I added to Dripping Dream Vintage recently. I went thrifting a lot this week so I have a bunch of new items that I will be listing in the shop shortly (including a 1990 Jane's Addiction tour shirt!). Probably going to be having a "photoshoot" (aka me standly against a wall awkwardly) on Sunday so be sure to follow @drippingdream on Instagram for a behind the scenes look at that!





Hope you have a great weekend!! Any exciting plans?
