Tuesday Thrills - Tea and Tulips

Tea and Tulips
Vintage Clothes

Stefanie Kuncman's flair for vintage fashion inspired her to start the online boutique, Tea and Tulips. Steffy sells one-of-a-kind vintage pieces which she finds and hand picks herself. She modernizes certain outfits, either by shortening the length or altering the sleeves on blouses and dresses. This Miami gal says that she is 'madly in love with clothes' and shares this love on her site by personally modeling each of the outfits. I don't know how she does it, if I the task of personally picking out pretty vintage clothes for my store, I'd want to keep them all!

Her quirky ensembles have been featured on various sites, including Elle, Vogue Germany, Grazia, Fabsugar and Vogue Girl Korea. Her clothes are well-maintained, affordable and adorable! These are some of my favourite items from the Tea and Tulips boutique.

You can purchase these charming outfits and many more on Steffy's website, Tea and Tulips. She ships to South Africa (lucky us!) as well as to the rest of the world. Also check out the clearance and sale items on the site, where you will find some gems under $10 / R73. As these are all singular pieces, they do sell out quickly, but are regularly replaced with new stock. I hope you find yourself some great vintage treasures!

Happy Shopping!
