If we could combine our passions with business, a dream job would be created. Part wardrobe stylist and vintage boutique owner Francesca Roth has done just that. Contributing styling for high fashion editorial campaigns in publications like ELLE Magazine, and subsequently turning around and flipping the pieces in My Grandma’s Closet, her online vintage boutique, has proved to be more than just a sartorially fulfilling pastime. Not only is she using her passion for revival vintage to inspire ensembles, but she creates a fun place to shop the pieces too. Shop My Grandma’s Closet here.

Introducing Vivípara, a collection of Southwest vintage with a cool, minimalist vibe. The boutique is a collaboration between power duo, Emily and Jason, who on a whim landed in Arizona last year and started collecting the region’s best vintage for an online shop. They gave it the name Vivípara after the Escobara Vivípara cactus, found across the deserts surrounding their new home. The name also derives from the Spanish verbs viví and para which suitably translates in English to I lived for. For a couple that lives for romantic whimsy and travel, collecting vintage along the way, we say the name fits.

We are delighted to announce the arrival of Parlo, a boutique that mixes classic vintage pieces with a modern edge. Purveyor Katie Humphries, who is also a painter by trade, possesses a true talent at selecting high quality pieces in exquisite prints and fabrics that easily translate to modern taste. Her art school days provided her with more than just an eye for detail. It was there she met her boyfriend, photographer Peter Dobey, who she pairs up with to produce amazing editorial-style product shoots. The result is a gorgeous collection of vintage you can hardly resist.
