NJ Flea Market Spotlight: Bloomfield "On The Green"

Over Labor Day weekend, I decided to take in the local scene on my staycation, and headed to the church's flea market. I remember growing up and on saturday mornings heading to the flea market with my aunt, oh if i would have only had known then what I know now about other people's treasures!!!
Just like thrift stores, you never know what you will find at a flea market, and I hit the jackpot. I came across a vendor that had really cool vintage accessories (and this is where my shopping hiatus came to an end: it lasted 1 month and 2 days). I scooped up some earrings and my favorite item was a wine colored stretch belt with a huge gold buckle. And if you aren't aware of the Fall 12 trends, Wine is on the list of must have colors! It's so lovely when you can find trends at a cheap (and I mean cheap) price! I can't wait to incorporate these pieces into my outfits.

Welcome and Enjoy!

Welcome to My Vintage Luv Jones!
Many of my friends know that I'm a lover of fashion especially vintage and thrift store finds. There's something about finding that one of a kind item that will make you stand out in the crowd. I live for the times when you leave your local Salvation Army with a bag full of clothes that only cost $20-$30 dollars (I am a serious budget shopper)! So, I decided to start this blog to share my love of these precious finds with other fashion lovers; show you how to style vintage and thrift store pieces with items from your current closet (since I am a Wardrobe Stylist & Image Consultant); and let you in on some of my fave stores...amongst many other fashionable topics!!!!
