Really Good Vintage SHOP is live!
Get ready to geek out on the good stuff
It’s here and it’s LIVE and I’m so excited! You’ll have to pardon that this newsletter is wholly centered on RGV’s new website and stunning photoshoot because it was so much work (and fun!), and I’m just really proud of it all.
In this vintage drop, you can find some rare and high end designer pieces that are the kinds of pieces you pinch yourself when you find, all the way down to those workhorse, everyday pieces that are equally chic and special. Sizes range from XS-2X, because vintage should be accessible to every body!
Just want to shout out the phenomenal photographer Love Hunters who shot the main looks, and my utterly gorgeous models, Markie and Kayla, for wearing everything so well.
Below is a small collage of some hits and I’ll walk you through them as I normally would! Want to skip the rigamarole and get straight to shopping? The new website is right here:

Thank you for your support, thank you for being here, and thank you for loving vintage as much as I do!
1. Shoulder pad tee + Taffeta Perry Ellis skirt - This was a vintage kismet moment, as I found the top AND the skirt the day before this shoot. It’s one of those ‘go with your guts’ kind of thing and ended up being one of my favorite looks. The top can obvs be dressed up, but would look amazing just tucked into some jeans. And the skirt would be equally cool with just an oversized sweater thrown over it and a pair of suede boots.
2. Ralph Lauren silk pant set - I mean, you’ve read this long enough to know this hits all the sweet spots for me. Silk, striped, brown, and a set! Best part of a set is you get three outfits for the price of one: the set itself, the blouse + any bottom, the pants + any top!
3. Sleeveless turtleneck + Armani thigh slit skirt - The skirt is the real star of the show because she’s beautifulllll. Could be worn as-is with such a classic turtleneck, dressed down with a band tee and some sneakers, or dressed all the way up a bustier + tuxedo jacket.
4. Knit cross back halter + Ruffle hem skirt - These pieces are the perfect example of classic with a twist. A black halter top seems not too exciting but the weight of the knit and the cross-strap back detail is so special - and it’s vintage! And while a khaki ruffle hem skirt may not seem like much, this piece is incredible. Its weight is heavy duty, and has an almost coated canvas feel to it? It could probably be found on a runway right now at NYFW. Plus, pockets! I can’t believe this is vintage it has such a modern feel to it. Instead of a halter and platforms, you can make it fall with some leather boots and a black turtleneck. DEF keep a belt though for maximum impact.
5. Backless sheer detail silk gown + Taupe double thigh slit dress - DAYUM these dresses are for celebrating your beautiful body. The black silk is backless, with a serious slit up the left leg, AND has sheer straps and cowl neck. The taupe is for when you’ve really been going hard on leg day! Show off those gams and drop all the jaws!
6. Sheer sleeve bustier + Silk trousers - Simple and effective. I love the tapered straps of the bustier and you can’t ever go wrong with a silk trouser!
7. Car wash hem skirt - Hello, joy! On Instagram, I shared the exact moment I found this because I’ve always loved these skirts, and I have never once found one myself (they’re hard to come by!). Unreal and joyous and chic.
8. Three piece cream silk suit - I’ve been talking about this suit for months because I’ve never found anything else like it. It needs to introduction. I just want it to find a good new home. Maybe on a modern bride??
9. Sleeveless turtleneck dress - About as classic as they come, which is never a bad thing! This is one of those pieces that is sleek on its own but could easily be a great layering piece, as well. Under a skirt, under an oversized v-neck sweater? The possibilities are endless!
