Well I made it home alive, but only just. After being stuck in traffic for 5 hours trying to leave we missed our flight home, had to book a hotel overnight, and flew out the next morning a few hundred dollars out of pocket. But I’ll tell you all about my adventuring in the next post once I have uploaded what little photos we managed to take over the weekend. For now, I thought I would update you all with what’s been happening with the store since I’ve been away (a few short days kind of feels like a few short months right now!).

Firstly, the new issue of  Mylookbook was released a few days ago and to my astonishment (I’m not quite sure if there is a word that better describes how shocked I am) my photo was run as the front cover! Yes I am just as surprised as you are, I had no idea and it was such a surreal moment when I saw the new issue online! Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought I would be on the cover of a magazine!? A very big thank you to Krista for running the feature over so many beautiful pages and for unknowingly giving me one of the nicest surprises I’ve had in ages. You can read the complete issue of Mylookbook here,where you will also find the lovely Jessy from Wide awake Thoughts.

Also, my collaboration with Solestruck and Jeffrey Campbell which is called ‘Indian Summer’ launched online in the few short days i was away! You can now find my images being used as the landing pages on the main Solestruck website, on their official facebook page, and they were also sent out in a daily email to thousands of shoe fanatics! If that was wonderful enough i just received news that they loved my ‘Snick’ images so much that they’re going to compile a mini lookbook of them – talk about crazy! You can now find one of the funniest and quirkiest interviews i’ve ever had the pleasure of doing on their website here.

My love for the man behind Jeffrey Campbell, Ty, seems to be growing by the day and I cannot thank him enough for how lovely he has been to my store. I can only hope one day I will be able to return the favor. Perhaps I’ll try and start a Gary Pepper shoe line or something?

The Luscious website also did a lovely write up on Gary Pepper which you can read here. It was such a beautiful article and i’d like to say a quick thank you to Natasha and Anna for featuring the store. I also just finished a short column for Ebay magazine that will be published in their next issue. Can you believe they want to run a regular column on the workings of Gary Pepper Vintage? Thank you, Miceala!

And last but not least, nearly 130 new vintage pieces arrived in store on Sunday night and are now available. I posted about this amazing full sequined top (number 13) on Facebook before I left and everybody seems to be going absolutely crazy trying to get their hands on it! I also love the selection of pastel jumpers I have this week and this amazing rabbit fur coat that is perfect for winter. You can view the full collection here.
