Vintage Style

It’s time to share some fabulous updates I’ve made to my most popular eBay collections!  I’ve been adding sweet things to the following collections: Bags for Babes + Boys A Piece of Plaid Diamonds Are Forever Apple Laptops, iPads and iPhones That Cost Less Exercise Equipment for a Fit Year! 

So for the past few weeks I’ve been blogging about all of the amazing collections I’ve been building on eBay.  But I haven’t shared how to make one with you!  And for that I am embarrassed and might I add, a little bit ashamed! 

The past few weeks I’ve been share-happy with my many collections on eBay!  I’ve curated Secondhand Style That Sings and shared why #imbornto Thrift, #imbornto Write and my Birthday Bliss Wishlist!  But it’s time that I stop being so selfish.  It’s time that I step out of the spotlight and let it shine on the many other curators who’ve used their keen eyes and sense of self + style to curate collections worth viewing, following and perhaps, buying from.  So without further ado, here are 5 of my favorite collections trending on eBay now! 

I’m so LUCKY to be 28 and living this beautiful, amazing, blessed life of change and connection and growing character!  Thank you all for inspiring and for being a follower / supporter of Sammy Davis Vintage!  It gives me great joy that after 5 years of Sammy D Vintage, I’m launching a NEW site at SammyD.TV that I’ll be devoting full attention to moving forward.  We never stop growing – no matter how old we are.  And when we stop growing, well, we’ve died.  And so to grow is to live.  Here’s to another year of life – and a blog post celebrating the beautiful things which honor its meaning and message of love, peace and joy. 

About 80 percent of my wardrobe is secondhand and it feels great knowing that I’m consciously consuming fashion that’s stylish, sustainable and jam-packed full of substance.  So when eBay asked me to curate some more collections for their amazing #finditfollowit campaign, I decided to make a collection totally dedicated to the most fabulous thrifters of all on eBay: The sellers of secondhand style!  Featuring finds from Violetville, The Kissing Tree Vintage, American Archives, Vulture Culture and Thriftwares … this collection is home to SECONDHAND STYLE THAT SINGS! 

Today I’m sharing five of my latest secondhand style finds to inspire you with my passion: THRIFTING.  Love thrifting?  Please visit my THRIFT collection on eBay, brought to you by the amazing vintage / secondhand sellers of eBay.com.  These men and women thrift like kings and queens to find treasure that they present to you!

Symbolically, an owl represents wisdom.  Owl necklaces became popular in the 1970s and the trend was called “Hoot Couture.”  Because the ’70s was a time of political, moral and ethical exploration in the United States, the value of wisdom became embedded in the nation’s consciousness.  The features of an owl appear more human like too, as if you’re staring into the eyes of your reflection in the mirror.  Which is why when choosing an owl necklace, you get to choose a necklace that mimics your inner being or sense of self you’d like to fulfill. 

In life we are never “fully developed.”  We are who we are for a reason so divine that we need not seek to understand it.  But life throws curveballs and our minds become wrapped in the “who, what, where, when, why” behind it all.  And so we can turn to leaders who have left legacies of words which assure, affirm and acknowledge our beautiful, perfect and complete selves.  Today I’m sharing my passion for reading books in the self-development sphere.  My collection “Inspired Words to Live By” on eBay highlights 14 books written by my favorite leaders in the “self-help” field of New Age spiritual enlightenment.
