A Few of Our Favorite (Vintage) Things

Faux fur and fabulous, Katrina in an Ocean Heir find

Lovely Katrina looking fabulous in one of our great vintage coats.  This one went home with Katrina, but we have plenty more estate finds to share and here are a few of our current favorites:

Our current Cinderella item. . . Many will try, but only one will it fit.  These fantastic, petite little boots are it now.  Want to be the queen of the ball?  Drop   by and give these a try.

The Heiress-in-Chief brought home theses charming children's books from her last picking trip.  We love the sweet illustrations and the colorful lithography.

We have vintage bags by the cartload.  Whether you are hoping to find a classic black clutch, or super glam rockin' tote, there's  something for everyone.

Very sleek and Seventies, this ironwood shark is perfect for any retro beach house.

Father's Day, June 21, 2015

 

Okay, so you might think that  Ocean Heir is too girly to have great Father's Day gifts.  You would be so wrong.  There is plenty here to tickle the Dad's fancy,  starting with a terrific selection of unique and letterpress cards:

We also have tons of Dad-friendly books on subjects ranging from natural history and philosophy to bar guides and car culture.  If Dad is a reader there is something here to interest him:

What about a t-shirt?  True, men's clothing is not really our specialty, but we do have the wine drinker and VW bug t-shirts, and where else are you going to find that great Kraken t-shirt?

There's also tons of miscellany:  paperweights, bottle openers, matches, drinking flasks, to name just a few things. 

And let's not forget our collection of vintage and consignment items.  How about a selection of classic vinyl LP's, maybe that fabulous cocktail set, something from our collection of 60's camping gear, or perhaps some swinging 70's wall art for the man cave?  

Whatever gift you choose, all the Heiresses would like to wish all the Father's out there the best day ever!

A Few of our Favorite Things- June 3, 2015

 Well, the Heiress-in-Chief has been out shopping again.  The store is chock full of all kinds of goodies just right for Spring and Summer.  I thought this might be a nice time to feature a few of our favorites:

All natural fibers, fun and flirty

 This cheerful little dress has been a favorite with us Heiresses since it arrived, in fact, several guests  loved it so much they wore it right out of the store!  Light and gauzy, it has an easy fit that works for many figure types.  It looks adorable as is with flip flops or sandals, or you can wear it over leggings, or even jeans.  And when that afternoon breeze kicks up, a sweet denim jacket, cardigan, or shrug will keep out the chill in style.

A great topper!

Need a dash of sophistication for a bland outfit?  This little red jacket should do the job.  Over a pair of palazzo pants with a simple t-shirt, a simple comfy and casual outfit turns sleek and eclectic.  Its made of an easy easy care vegan material, and the extra seaming and cut of this jacket really define and flatter the waistline.  

A favorite, fully stocked

Most of you regulars are familiar with these great cross-body saddlebag purses.  They are made of a durable vegan leather material ("I can't believe its not leather!" , we hear that all the time). There's an adjustable strap, and an anchored inner bag that can be unsnapped and carried as a clutch.  We are lucky to have lots of fun colors in stock now, so come on by and take a look.

Fabulous and brand new

These great ceramic bracelets are brand new to the store.  The bulky beads and unique glazes make for an eye-catching accessory.  Wear one, or stack several, no two are exactly alike.  And, they are strung on an elasticized cord for easy on and easy off.  We have coordinating necklaces and earrings too!
