On What Inspires Me

Hi all. Meg here. I wanted to blog about what is currently making my wheels turn (no not in a sexy way you pervvy kitties) I am constantly being inspired by bloggers, art, music, and my friends. When it comes to what I shop for Daisy Chain Gang Vintage I draw from these inspirations....and some of them are just funny or make me smile.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN FRIENDS

TGIF!!!

Hello beauties.

Hope everyone is enjoying their Friday afternoon!! We sure are! We have some extra lovely goodies to add to our fall collection this Sunday. I cannot believe some of the pieces we found on our last shop. We must admit, it is slightly difficult to part with some of these gems... especially this Western Chic cut out, fringe top.


I seriously want to travel down route 66 (preferably in a 66 Camero), cowboy boots dangling out the window, with some CCR blasting while wearing this top. It perfectly embodies this All American,70s chic girl we are seeing all over our favourtie look-books this season. This item, along with a few new items will be up on the shop THIS sunday!!

What are you doing for Halloween?? Our friends take Halloween VERY seriously. I mean, this is a holiday that ALL of us go all out for and typically our friend's Mikey and Carly will host a wonderful, fucking crazy drunk fest party. And they are doing it again this year!!!
Here are some photos from last years party to perhaps give you all some inspiration... or a couple of laughs

Here is Carly the 2nd half of the wonderful couple who host most of our parties. Check out her blog at missteacups

And here is Mikey as his true self. The other half of the hosting crew.
HOW GOOD IS THIS? Anyone remember the sexy saxophone player??? God damn.

Probably one of the cutest couples we know.

DJING ALL NIGHT
I am not sure whether or not Jess will be thrilled that I posted this particular photo... but I think it accurately portrays her costume character ;)

Foot Panties

Great socks are now a layering staple in any fashionable gals wardrobe - Foot Panties is a sweetly sexy approach to covering your tootsies. Loving the look of these with bare legs and open toe chunky heels, and the french macaroon-cameo isn't hurting either :)

it's all happening....

I watched Almost Famous a few weeks before Jess and I decided to partner together to create Daisy Chain Gang Vintage... and the words of Miss Penny Lane echoed through my head " it's all happening...". Her image, dressed in a fur collared coat, dancing through the night haunted me...inspired me. Oh how I have longed to care about something as much Miss Penny Lane did in that moment. That moment in which nothing else mattered.

For us here at Daisy Chain Gang Vintage, we want to give that moment to you, our costumers with our clothes. Vintage clothing is about invoking a feeling, a time, a moment loved in the past. For some its about becoming a character and for others its simply an expression of one's self. No matter what it is to you, Vintage shopping is a special kind of experience unlike anything else and Jess and myself couldn't be more thrilled to share our hand picked items with you!

We would love to thank our photographer Bryan Reid who without his talent, we would be taking photos with our iPhone 3GS...Please show him support and check out his facebook page at: Bryan Reid Photography

 Our shop goes LIVE THIS THURSDAY! We love twitter and Instagram so please hit us up at @daisycgvintage on Twitter and daisychaingangvintage on Instagram! While your at hit, whore us out a little more on Facebook at Daisy Chain Gang Vintage and give us a little "like". Thanks for all the support and happy shopping you beautiful creatures!!!
