VINTAGE BAZAR

What a better way to have fun and help a good cause than to attend a vintage and second hand bazar and go crazy shopping for  hidden treasures. 

Last time I went to one of this vintage bazars I bought myself a pair of incredibly fun, yellow and black 80's vintage costume earrings. 

For a couple of years now FUNSEPA (Fundación Sergio Paiz), a non profit organization dedicated to raise funds to buy computers for public schools in Guatemala, has been organizing several times a year a vintage bazars with the sole purpose of raising funds to fulfill the organizations mission, which is to educate Guatemalan children. 

Their mission is:

To contribute to the social and economical development of Guatemala utilizing technology as a powerful tool for our country's education.

Their vision is:

To achieve high impact in the educational system and to contribute to make a difference and change the Guatemala of the XXI century.  They consider that education is a task for everyone and that together we can all prove that an educated country is a developed country. 

The bazar is taking place Wednesday, Thursday and Friday from 9am to 6pm at Europlaza Zone 14 (2nd level, 3rd tower).

This are some of the things that you can find in their upcoming vintage bazar.




Zara

Brand new!!! Perfect for this summer.




Chloe flats

Also a must for this summer, perfect to wear with your little day dress.




Chinese Laundry

This summer is represented by bright bold colors, so this yellow high heels are the perfect opportunity to bring visual interest to any outfit. 




Clutches, clutches, clutches!!!

We just can't have enough of them and this ones are brand new.




Vintage Nina Ricci

This bag was a gift from my friend Stella, I saw it and instantly fell in love with it for its pretty feminine shape and amazing green color which made it perfect for this summer, plus green is one of my favorite colors to wear. 

Thank you so much Stella, I used it for the first time on Sunday to go to the farmers market, it was the perfect complement to my French inspired outfit. 




Gucci




Giorgio Armani

Classic white men's button down shirt.




Diane Von Furstenberg




Colorful maxi dresses


CREATING OUTFITS

I also picked out selected pieces and created some outfits to show you how much fun and versatile it can be to buy vintage and second hand.




A vibrant printed day dress with colorful accessories is the perfect outfit for woman with a colorful and creative personality.




For women with a more ethnic-eclectic style, why not wear an outfit like this for a summery night in the town. 




Eclectic glamour is how I call this outfit. It's fun, it's feminine and it's sexy.
