Suggested Shopping: Nasty Gal

I want to like vintage shopping. I really do. But I don’t deal well with having to spend hours and hours browsing for a hidden gem. I don’t have the patience. I like well edited stores. So you can imagine my excitement when I found Nasty Gal Vintage on Ebay. Well, multiply that excitement by 100 and that’s how I felt when Nasty Gal opened up their own online store, Shop Nasty Gal . This sassy boutique has a well stocked selection of vintage clothing, accessories and shoes, with absolutely no filler. If vintage isn’t your thing – Nasty Gal is slowly introducing a “new” section with up and coming young designers. And if spending money isn’t your thing, at least visit the site to browse through all the perfectly styled photos – sure to be fashion inspiration for many designers to come.

Hired to paint the outside of an indie boutique, the owner asked Missiaen to revamp a few pairs of women’s heels on the side. When those few pairs of heels sold in record time, Missiaen knew he was onto something…and Ndeur was born.
