Pencil Me In...

Whats the most flattering thing women can wear that enhances all the right curves? Ding! Ding! Thats right! A pencil skirt!

Pencil skirts are a fashion staple, and have been around for ages. Their silhouette hugging the hourglass shapes of women like Elizabeth Taylor, Marilyn Monroe, and Jackie O. These skirts can be identified by their narrow shape and the way they fit snugly from hip to lower thigh, flaring only slightly at the knee. Most skirts have a slit up the backside, allowng for only the most modest of movements. Paired with back-seamed sheer stockings and heels and you've got yourself a classic 50's look.

Pencil skirts have also made their way into current fashion trends. Who could deny a piece of clothing that makes any shape into an hourglass shape? They now come in denim or vibrant colors, embroidered with flowers, and in prints like leopard (though, that shouldn't mean you turn away the classic black pencil skirt). Below are pictures of two current fashion icons, Lucy Liu and Scarlett Jo, looking lovely in their pencils.








Classic black, cream, or grey skirts look luxe when paired with sleek tops of a similar shade tucked into them. A patent leather belt works as a great divider for that look. Or take a denim pencil skirt and tuck in your favorite vintage band tee. Layer some necklaces and add some heels and you're ready to party. Try to find pencil skirts made out of a light wool, or with a cotton blend, which allows for a bit of stretch.

When in doubt? Shop vintage! These skirts were built to last back then, and were often tailored by hand.

We at FOUND Vintage have lots of these beauties in stock, and will be playing host to a few yard sales coming up soon. Be on the look out for the dates of these sales so you too can get a pencil skirt to highlight the goodies!

Damn the Man, Save the Empire...

There is no easy way to phrase something like this... FOUND (A Vintage Shop) will be closing the doors of our beautiful shop on June 29th. It may come as a shock to most of you, and we apologize for it being so abrupt. We've been trying to hold on for as long as we could, but times are tough. Everyone has felt the financial pinch of the economy, our little shop included.

There is a light at the end of the tunnel though. A big luminous, flashy, sunglasses required light! Its called Found-vintage.com! We will be selling our swanky vintage pieces online very soon. Please keep an eye out for our webstore by visiting the website often. It should be part of your daily routine! Wake up, walk dog, shower, eat hearty breakfast, check Found-vintage.com, read FOUND blog...you get the idea. Maybe get dressed at some point after you shower. Or don't. We won't judge. You can just wait around in the buff until you order your first magical piece of clothing from Found-vintage.com. We'll fix you right up!

Keep an ear to the ground for work on any open markets or festivals we will be participating in as well.

Oh, and...
We want to see you at the Cherrybomb Ball, this Saturday the 27th, at 8pm.
Don't be a square, just be there.

Pinup of the Day...

Today I will pay tribute to the number 1 pinup girl during World War II, the beautiful Betty Grable. Betty like many talented kids, was propelled into into acting by her mother. She used a false identification to get her first film, and was later fired when her true identity was discovered. After that, her actual first role was the leading dance number in the film Whoopee! After small parts in over 50 Hollywood movies throughout the 1930s, Grable finally gained national attention on stage for her role in the Cole Porter Broadway smash Du Barry Was a Lady in 1939.
1940 kicked off her movie career, landing her a contract with 20th Century Fox making her their top star throughout the decade. Some of her best movies during this era include Down Argentine Way, Moon Over Miami, The Dolly Sisters, and Mother Wore Tights. By the end of the 1940's Betty was the highest paid female star in Hollywood.

It was also during the 40's that Betty posed for her famous pinup photo in her swimsuit for the GI's of WWII, making her the #1 pinup for American soldiers (even with competition like Rita Hayworth and Veronica Lake). She was recognized as having the best legs in Hollywood, and was known as "the girl with the million dollar legs" because of them being insured for $1,000,000 with Lloyds of London. Many photoshoots have her posing in positions that would best display her slender legs.

Betty was cast in several post-war musicals during the 1950's. Her last big film hit was 1955's How To Marry a Millionaire, which she starred in along with Lauren Bacall and Marilyn Monroe. At the time Marilyn was being groomed as the next Hollywood sex symbol to replace Betty. Instead of this turning into a feud, Grable was quoted saying to Monroe "Go and get yours honey, I've had mine".
In an interview in 2007 with Hugh Hefner, Hef admitted that Grable was his inspiration for founding the Playboy empire. Her vast career as a box-office bombshell continues to introduce Betty Grable to a whole new set of audiences generation after generation. She is the original pin-up girl, a Hollywood legend, and an American icon.

The Cherrybomb Ball is coming up on June 27th at 8pm. Be sure to put on your "best Betty" and come join the festivities! And as always, come visit us at FOUND (A Vintage Shop) to get a piece of history to wear to the Ball. We have many outfits that work for the Pinup era, with many of them being 50% off because of our fabulous Summer Sale going on right now!
Come in and shop!

The Art of the Pin Up...

The much anticipated Cherrybomb Ball is just around the corner, on June 27th. Part of the festivities for the ball include two Burlesque shows, and a Pin Up Contest with all the fixin's. The contest will have many beauties competing for the crown as well as an opportunity to interview with The Diamond Agency, and a photo session with Flirtini Photographer Vanessa Sotomayor to appear in the next issue of Renegade Magazine! Each contestant will have to strut her stuff with her representation of a 50's pin up model, and will be critiqued carefully by the three judges as well as the crowd.



So, what exactly does it take to put your best Pin Up foot forward...

Personality
Pin ups have a bubbling personality, are full of charm and grace. They are unconditionally expressive, with a smile that can make a man go broke, and engaging eyes that love the attention of the camera.

Hair/Make-Up
Make-up is used the enhance the natural beauty. Ruby red lips, rose stained cheeks, full lashes and liner to frame the shape of the eyes. Hair is full, set with curls or a soft wave. Victory rolls, pin curls, and pompadours are especially choice. Accessorize the hair with small hats, veils, bows or the favorite hair flower. Choose a flower that compliments the outfit like a rose for an hourglass black dress, or a hibiscus for a tiki print dress.

Outfit
The outfit is just as important as the model. It should emphasize the beautiful curves of the body, and allow for an expressive pose. It also needs to fit the decade. Many pin ups would dress in character. Sailor, Cowgirl, Bathing Beauties were some great alternative outfits to the svelte lingerie, gowns and dresses that were more commonly used in pin up art.

Picture Perfect Pose
A pin up pose is animated an yet smooth in form. The best parts of the body were amplified in a sexy appealing way. Long legs were stretched out above the body, backs arched to puff out the chest, or bent over body to show off the toosh. Show off what your mama gave you!

The history of the pin up dates back to the 1890's, but was more prominent in the late 30's through the 50's. They were used to give hope to the GI's during war, and were commonly plastered all over the lockers of the men. Betty Grable posed for her famous pin up photo in 1943 for all the men fighting in World War II. Other famous pin up models include Rita Hayworth, Brigitte Bardot, Sophia Loren, Lili St. Cyr, Marilyn Monroe (Norma Jeane), Jayne Mansfield, Bettie Page, Lauren Bacall, Kim Novak...I could go on.
In addition to the famous models, there were a bevy of artists made famous for their pin up art. Watercolor, pastels, and airbrush were used to elegantly parade the models on the covers of campy magazines or calendars. Brown & Bigelow was an art company that published artists like Gil Elvgren, Rolf Armstrong and Norman Rockwell, and were one of the biggest calendar printers in the world during the late 40's. And artists like Alberto Vargas and George Petty grew famous for their centerfold art in Esquire magazine. Other personal favorites of mine include Billy Devorss, Edward Runci Pearl Frush, and Earl Moran. Look up their art if you get a chance!

We here at FOUND vintage are very knowledgeable about pin up history and can outfit you and your friends in our vintage to ensure you wow the room (and the camera). Come shop!

A window to the world......

How many times have you been driving or walking down a street and thought "That store looks cute, I want to stop in there...." If you're like me, this happens all too often. Whether we realize it or not, what we are reacting to, and connecting with, is a small story created by the store's external appearance. That story can be created in many ways; by the product being shown in the window, by the colors and lettering of the sign or even by overall atmosphere or vibe that exudes from the space. But most often, it is the window display that grabs us and provokes us to enter and shop- even if that wasn't our original intention.
Major retailers like Barneys, Neiman Marcus and Macy's are known for their over the top window displays- especially around the holidays. The budget and staff required for these displays would blow your mind and they are kept so under wraps that most city store retailers include blinds in their windows so that they may be set up under a shroud of mystery. When the window is complete, the blinds are dramatically raised and, if the job is well-done, the result can stop even the most hurried city dwellers in their tracks.

Here at 544 West Fairbanks, we are lucky enough to have a store window so large it could probably be used as a small studio apartment, if need be. But really, our huge window is our favorite part the store we take great pride in coming up with inventive scenes for each monthly change. Our goal is always to grab the attention of the traffic outside our store by providing them with a glimpse of the feeling we hope they have upon entering our doors. In doing so, we often set up the window to give the feeling of being transported to another place in time; just as Found itself takes you back in time. Filling such a large window and making it impactful can be tough on our shoestring budget, but we make the most of if it and have fun with it every time we change it. Here are just a few images of some of our past windows- for those of you that haven't been lucky enough to see them in person. ;) Anyone have a favorite? Or an idea or next month? We'd love some feedback and/or ideas of what you'd like to see... Just as they say that the eyes are the windows to the soul of a person, so our window is like a sneek-peek into the soul of our store. We just hope you like what you see!

Cherrybomb Ball

Aside from being the tourist capital of the entire galaxy, Orlando is a city that has something for everyone. Whether your interests lie in sipping sake while sketching your next work of art (Tatame Sake Lounge), boozing it up with St. Bernardus beer to discuss the latest documentary on French bike messengers (Stardust Video and Coffee), or watching your favorite band in an small intimate venue (The Social)...Orlando has it. We've got incredible local and independant coffee houses, restaurants, vintage shops (ahem, FOUND!), museums, dive bars, and farmers markets. Orlando's main flaw? All of these cultural treasures are spread out over the city.

If you have any interest in the fabulous 50's, or Rockabilly then finding something to fill your need is hard. There are a couple schools and dance halls that have swing dances a few times a month, some retro lounges, or you may get lucky and catch a Rockabilly band to watch. We need more options! Which leads me the next event FOUND vintage will be participating in...Its called THE CHERRYBOMB BALL! Flirtini Photography will be hosting this event that will encompass vendors for all the hepcats and betty's of Central Florida. FOUND vintage will be there selling our vintage beauties, and joining us will be multiple vendors who have retro handmade goods such as jewelry, tiny tophats, and hair flowers. Our pals from Mixed Media Baked Goods will also be there serving up the best Vegan cupcakes in town!

There will also be two different burlesque shows at the Cherrybomb Ball! One act Go Cat Go, features two amazing performers Lexi Katt and Minnie Vicious. The other burlesque act is out of Lakeland and they are called Moxie Le Femme! It won't be a ball if there is no dancing, so Lindy Hop and Swing lessons will be given as well.
The main gem of the ball will be the Pinup contest! Women will be showing off their best Pinup look, personality, and charm. The winner of the contest receives a 3 Look shoot with Vanessa Sotomayor of Flirtini Photography that will be featured in the next issue of Renegade magazine, as well as a sit down interview with The Diamond Agency. Pretty fancy, huh?
The Cherrybomb Ball is on June 27th at 8pm, and will be held at the Discount Music Center (3301 Gardenia Ave, Orlando, 32805). There is no cover charge, so bring all your friends for some good clean fifties fun!

And don't forget, if you don't have a stitch to wear to the ball, come visit us FOUND gals and we will take care of you! We have a great selection of 50's wear that is sure to turn some heads.
See you pinups and greaser guys soon!

Bathing Beauties vs. Modern Beasts

When did hanging by the pool become a time to forgo all fashion sense and throw on a terry cloth mumu and flip-flops?? EEEEWWW. Yesterday I was watching TV and was appalled by a mini-infomercial for the "Towelini"- a revolting product that literally tries to sell women on the idea of wearing a towel as bathing suit cover-up, as loungewear or even as an actual dress! You've all probably seen these before but I've included a photo so you can understand my aversion.....

Back in the day, "bathing beauties" lounged poolside in oversized sunglasses, glamorously floppy hats, heels and bathing suit cover-ups NOT made of terry cloth. And although I might not trudge through the sand in a pair of heels, I like the idea that summer doesn't have to mean giving up on fashion- even here in Florida when it's 9,000 degrees everyday. Here at the store we have not only great vintage bathing suits but also the right accessories to throw on for a day poolside. Why not opt for a great vintage scarf to hide your windblown beach hair as opposed to a baseball cap? And you can never go wrong with large oversized vintage sunglasses..... Add in a straw bag and wood bangles and you have a totally pulled together look that's both easy and affordable. You can get the scarf, sunglasses, bag and 2 bracelets all for just $70 here at Found.

And if you really want to make a splash, why not opt for one of these great lace cover-ups and keep your towel for post-shower time? The yellow one (my favorite!) is just $30 and would also be great as a summer "jacket" over a dress or a tank top and jeans. The floor-length white lace cover-up is just $35 and is o-so fabulous! Pair it with some wedges and a summer cocktail and you're set for a perfect day.....

Found hopes you enjoy the sweltering summer heat in style! (And again, NOT in terry cloth :)

Voting is for Lovers

Its that time again...the air is warmer, the birds sing louder, and Orlando Weekly has their "Best Of" poll where you can vote on all the things you love about the charming city of Orlando. Being awarded the "Best Of" is a great honor, and helps many businesses/people reach out to the community even more.

Here are three great reasons you should vote FOUND (A Vintage Shop) in the Best Vintage Shop category.

#1-Product: We constantly research current fashion trends and familiarize ourselves with vintage designers to ensure you are getting an authentic vintage item that you can actually work into your wardrobe without making you look overly dated. Buying vintage says a lot about a person. It shows you are interested in a unique piece no one else with have, and you are conscious of the positive impact buying vintage has on the environment. We also take those facts into consideration when choosing items to sell.

#2-Events: We host and participate in events to build better relationships with the community. We have hosted Fashion Shows, Pin-Up and holiday parties, and have partnered with other local green vendors for an Earth Day event. We have worked closely with other brilliant small businesses like Tatame Sake Lounge, Twist Hair Salon, Know They're Looking Pin-Up Photography, Mixed Media Baked Goods, and Mama's Sauce Print Shop. A partnership between other local businesses helps to identify these treasures to the public, and encourages the community to shop locally.

#3-Price: Like I mentioned above, we put a lot of thought into our items to ensure they work with today's fickle fashion fads. Most current designers use silhouettes, patterns and fabrics from past decades then reconstruct them to make them appear updated. Why spend $795 on a mass produced designer shirtdress when you can get the original inspiration of that dress for $40?
We encourage you to log into http://www.orlandoweekly.com/boo2009/poll.asp and vote for all the things that you love in Orlando. Thank you for all the support! -Love, FOUND

A Very Vintage Memorial Day......

These days, Memorial Day means a three day weekend, beaches, bbqs and of course, the All-American classic, beer. Sadly, many of us have forgotten the true meaning of the day and the simple fact that Memorial Day is day to pause and give tribute to those that came before..... Some Memorial Day traditions include placing flags and flowers on soldiers graves, attending Memorial day parades or just taking the time to remember family and friends that have passed (whether they were in the service or not.) Personally, I think one of the coolest little-known traditions of this day is that since the 1950s, soldiers from the 3rd US Infantry have placed over 250,000 small American flags on the gravesites of soldiers at Arlington National Cemetery. This occurs every year on the Thursday before Memorial day and continues 24 hours a day all weekend long as these soldiers then patrol the cemetary to ensure the flags remain upright. While it may seem like a somewhat morbid holiday, I like to think of Memorial Day as a just a day of looking back with appreciation; whatever that means to each person.

And of course, "looking back" is one of our favorite activities at FOUND. We encourage you to take just one moment out of your day tomorrow and think about the past with gratitude. And, if you want to go just one step further, you can simultaneously show your patriotism and love for vintage with any of these 3 dresses all new in the store this week!
Wear the soft, tantilizing teal dress as a beach cover-up during the day and then as a summer dress later that night. Two in one? Now that's something to give tribute to! The red one is perfect for a parade or a bbq and with it's cute 50's shape, you can give tribute to the idea of the perfect 50s housewife....(a tradition we're rather happy is now outdated!) And finally, the khaki dress is a playful way to give a nod to the uniforms of the 40s and 50....

Enjoy your weekend, friends and remember to remember. Love, FOUND.

Layla...

When you think of sixties fashion icons, you may immediately think of Twiggy, Brigitte Bardot, Jackie O, and Sharon Tate (just to name a few). Another name with an influential print in fashion history is famed muse Pattie Boyd.
English model and photographer Pattie Boyd was the first wife of Beatles George Harrison. They met during the filming of "Hard Days Night" where she was cast as a schoolgirl fan for the film. George was so taken by her that one of the first things he said to Pattie was "Will you marry me?". They did end up marrying, in January of 1966. Many believe that Harrison's love song "Something" from Abbey Road, was inspired by his wife Pattie.
In the late 60's Eric Clapton and George Harrison became close friends. Clapton contributed guitar work on Harrison's song :"While My Guitar Gently Weeps" on The Beatles White Album but remained uncredited, and Harrison played guitar (under the pen name L'Angelo Misterioso) on Cream's "Badge" from the album Goodbye. It was reported during that time that Clapton fell in love with Pattie, and Pattie's 17 year old sister Paula. Paula moved in with Clapton, but soon left him after she heard his song "Layla" as it confirmed that he had been using her as a substitute for her older sister. The title "Layla" was inspired by a Persian story called "Layla and the Majnun". The story is about a moon princess who was married off by her father to someone other than the man who was desperately in love with her, resulting in the mans madness.
Pattie divorced George in 1977 and married Eric Clapton in 1979. Clapton also wrote the song "Wonderful Tonight" for Patti as she was getting herself ready to attend Paul and Linda McCartney's annual Buddy Holly Party. They divorced in 1988.
Even John Lennon and Mick Jagger were said to having crushes on Pattie Boyd, with Jagger admitting he had failed to seduce her for years.

Pattie has modeled throughout the 60's and 70's, wearing designers such as Mary Quant, Ossie Clark, and Karl Lagerfeld's Chloe collection (to name a few). Mary Quant is credited for popularizing mini skirts/mini dress trend during the mid sixties "Swinging London". She is also credited for the invention of hot pants during this decade too. Ossie Clark became a cult figure on Londons fashion scene during the 60's and 70's, incorporating floral and exotic prints to pantsuits, coats, and tulip shaped skirts. Even the queen of mod, Twiggy, has commented that she based her own look on Boyd when starting her modeling career.

This photo (bottom) is inspired by the photo of Patti wearing Ossie Clark (right). Our version is a vibrant red and paisley printed long dress with a double V neckline($45). Pair our dress with gladiator sandals and wooden beaded necklace for a late 60's comeback!

Don't forget FOUND has all your "Swinging Sixties" options from shift dresses, to printed maxi dresses and everything in between. Come shop!

Florida Fashions...

"Hot enough for ya?" I'm still not exactly sure how to answer that question when I get asked, but what I do know is how to dress in our sun fun weather without sacrificing individual style. Don't avoid buying a vintage treasure just because you think it is too hot to wear them! We've got some great pieces at FOUND that will keep you cool in all definitions of the word.
If you have visited us before, then you know everything in our store is separated by era (between the 1950's and 1980's) for your convenience. Listed below are some weather appropriate outfits that are broken down by the same eras.

1950's- This adorable hourglass dress is short sleeved and made from a thin poly/rayon blend. It has a gorgeous plum and white houndstooth pattern, with the same plum color outlining the collar, sleeves, and front pockets. Large fabric buttons run along the front of the dress($35). We've paired this dress with a comfortable pair of grey peep-toe sling back heels($30). Very cute!1960's- Take a look at this sleeveless mini! The fabric looks like the flowers have been painted on in vibrant purple, green, and blue hues($40). We added a brown leather belt($20) and brown woven purse($30) to contrast the bright colors of this fantastic outfit.
1970's- The cropped picture is of a stunning sleeveless maxi dress by designer Don Luis De Espana($45). The colors of this beauty remind me of cantaloupe and honeydew, very soft oranges and greens. Two rows of matching fabric lie under the bust of the dress, giving it that feeling of legs for days that every gal loves about maxi dresses. Wear this with a wooden beaded necklace and strappy sandals.
1980's- This is a super fun outfit. The sleeveless top has a Aztec print in pink, grey and blue with an adorable tie at the neckline($25). The acid wash skirt with it is high waisted with a tulip shaped top($30). We added white pumps that have a triangle cutout design($30) to complete our outfit.
I hope this encourages you to show weather who's boss. Come visit us soon for more great ideas to beat the heat!

Rockabilly 101

What is Rockabilly? Am I Rockabilly? ...These are just some of the questions that may keep you up late at night. Not to worry, I will shed some light on the subject and hopefully guide you to your answers.

In the early 1950's Rock 'n' Roll and Hillbilly music had a baby, and they named it...Rockabilly. It's influences included Western Swing, Boogie Woogie, and Rhythm and Blues. Some major contributors to Rockabilly are Bill Haley/Comets, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash, Wanda Jackson, Elvis Presley, Johnny Powers, Buddy Holly, Brenda Lee and Roy Orbison...just to name a few. Sun Records (a record label in Memphis Tennessee) gave a lot of those world renowned musicians their first recording contract that helped to launch their massive careers.
Rockabilly music started to wane in popularity in the 1960's, when Beatles-mania began to take over the radio. In the early 1980's Rockabilly returned with a renewed spirit. Bands like The Stray Cats, The Cramps, The Diversions, and The Meteors helped to revive the music scene with their punk rock chords and early rock 'n' roll ethics. Rockabilly (and its many sub-genres) continue to pump out new bands every year.
As with most music scenes Rockabilly has a culture with fierce influences. Hot rods, pin-ups, swing dancing, and tattoos all contribute to its culture. We here at FOUND really dig Rockabilly, and we've put together a few examples of the vintage we have in shop that can be yours!
The first picture is a light blue printed top, tucked into a cherry red pencil skirt. The outfit is tied together with a red checkered scarf, and a pair of oxford heels. This whole outfit can be purchased for less that $100. Wear this while attending a vintage car show, or drag race.
The second picture is a black sharkskin dress with a sweetheart neckline and textured waist. It has a wide circle skirt, perfect for twirling. We added white pearl beaded gloves, a cream clutch and oxford heels to complete this look. This outfit is made for swing dancing, or a night on the town!
The third photo is for the fellas. We have two great shirt options. A red/white checkered short sleeve top, or a brown/beige/pink short sleeve top. Either shirt looks great worn with a pair of cuffed denim jeans, or brown slacks. We've matched these tops with a fantastic Fedora to pull it all together. Leather jacket is optional. Both shirts run at $25 each. A steal!
Come in to FOUND vintage to see what else we can fit you in to suit your inner Rockabilly!
