The Vintage Whites Market


Last month I was given a sudden, but wonderful, opportunity by a local vintage seller named Maeberry Vintage check Rachael's store out on Etsy and her Instagram (maeberry_vintage). Because of her I was able to take part in a vintage/retro inspired fashion show! 


There is this lovely little market that sells all things vintage called The Vintage Whites Market. This market travels around and stops in different places (Utah being one!). It's founded and run by two ladies, Jana and Vanessa. They organize and even run a blog about the VWM at vintagewhitesblog.com. They created a fashion show for the sellers to be able to showcase some of their pieces. Rachael was put in charge of it and made a call for models on Instagram.



I'm not exactly sure what possessed me to email her. I'm the person who has a specific comfort zone and stays there. Still, I sent her an email then suddenly I was there getting my hair and make up done with the other twenty or so ladies.


If you haven't noticed from the photos I was given a stunning green wiggle dress to wear from a local seller by the name of Retro Betty. Adorable little dress boutique. If you're local and have yet to go I highly recommend a stop. I do believe that this dress is should still be there if you're interested. It's incredibly comfortable despite not looking so. Honestly, I bought it out of a mixture of impulse and desire for a souvenir from the show and have yet to regret my purchase. Now I just have a new piece to experiment with!


Modeling for this show was such a neat experience and everyone I met was wonderful. I hope have have this opportunity again soon!
