September Issue Day 2 - DOT By Marc Jacobs

Hey you guyssss!!! Over the weekend I decided to stop by Macy's to select a new fall fragrance. I knew what I wanted ahead of time because I'm such a Marc Jacobs freak with perfumes when I received the news that their was a new perfume with polka dots! I literally hit the roof and did a pauly d fist pump! (lol I'm serious) It's sweet with a little spice to it and I adore the bottle to pieces. I've been wearing it for 3 days now and the smell lasts all day which is a plus and its not overwhelming when you spray it as most fragrances are; I love it and I will definitely purchase it again. I've attached some photos of DOT along with an interview of Marc Jacobs on the fragrance. :) :) Marc Jacobs Talks DOT

Finally! An outfit post! lol I was in the mood for some photos and decided hmmm why not snap a few shots for my blog. Very "Cray Cray" (yes, i say corny stuff like that lol) Wednesday to say the least but that's the story of my life, always running around never any time to relax.

1 Year Later!

Good Morning Everyone! Can you believe that it's already May? Is it me or is this year flying by? I'm super stoked about this month. So many wonderful things are happening and one Huge important thing is...... It's my 2nd baby's birthday!!! Happy 1 year Anniversary CHAITEAVINTAGE !! WOOT! WOOT!! I can't explain the feeling right now. I am one person that procrastinates like nobody's business and can never stay consistent with one project. (please no judging) Anywho, I'm extremely proud of myself for keeping up with the store and trying really hard to keep things fresh and new. Where do I go from here? I continue to grow and build this empire I have in mind. I will succeed because I believe in my dreams. Inspire to Aspire! that's my motto for the next year. As I enter year two of this adventure I keep in mind all that I've done so far and promise myself to work harder this year. I wrote down a mini goal for the shop hopefully I can fulfill it come next May.
I would like to thank all that has supported me, from my awesome customers to the models,photographers,friends,family,and my amazing boyfriend. You all made this first year so incredible I love each and everyone of you. Now for Year 2! Cant Wait! Enjoy FreeShipping as well as surprise discounts throughout the month of May as a token of thanks! Also, look for us at different events and fashion shows this month as well as through the summmer! P.S Sorry for soooooo many pics! lol I wanted to show you guys some of the shoots and prep work I did last year... Love you 2 pieces ♥ Cali
