Vintage & Retro THREE DAY SALE at Hibernian House: March Edition

The only excuse I'll accept for not making our sale this month is if you live lightyears away. Or kilometres - kilometres is also acceptable. Not only do we have oh-so-much retro goodness at ridiculously low prices, but we'll also be open an extra day this month for all you early birds and weekend workers. We'll be here with our mountains of sexy second hand on the 12th, 13th and 14th of March (that's this weekend!) I won't spell out all the finer deets lest it drive my overseas readers to insanity (presumably you know them off by heart by now anyway), I'll just direct you to the details which you can find on the Facebook event or, for you non Facebookers, via our mailout.

Vintage and Retro Fashion at Hibernian House, THE SALE.

You Sydney kids are in for a real treat this weekend. Bobby and I are going on holiday, travelling Europe for six months from March. Before we leave, however, we'll be having one last Vintage and Retro Fashion sale. This means three things:

1. This will be your last chance (probably ever) to get that red matador jacket you've been so lusting after before it goes into storage for a very long time and/or gets replaced with European goods upon our return.


2. We'll be massively cutting prices. That means huge bargains for you.


3. You're not going to see us or get to share in our awesome taste in music for six months so you should totally come and hang out.

The sale is on Saturday the 28th February from 10am to 5pm and Sunday the 1st March from 11am to 4pm. We will have liquid refreshments, David Bowie (on the Ipod), a big comfy couch to chill the flip out on, shoes, handbags and belts, bric-a-brac, a little jewellery, books and LOTS OF RETRO & VINTAGE CLOTHES.

We're close to Crown St, Oxford St and pretty much everywhere. You'll be hard pressed to find parking, but be an environmentally friendly one and walk or hop on the train to Central Station from which we are a minute's walk. Find us on Level Six of Hibernian House, Surry Hills. Zip up in the lift to level 5 (be patient, it does work) and follow the signs.

I must confess, this is also a thinly veiled fundraiser for our trip but if you help us fund our stay by buying a thing or two we promise to return the favour by giving you a super good deal and bringing back lots and lots of goodies from Europe. If you can't make it on either day, but would still like to help us out, check out the awesome pieces of vintage we have up on eBay at the moment (with more to come in the next few weeks).

Invite your friends, bring your housemates and grab a MASSIVE BARGAIN!

Also, a big thank you to everyone who came to support us at the Valentine's Day episode of our Vintage and Retro Fashion sale. You can see more photos over here.

The racks of goodies that are usually hoarded in my cupboard/all around the house.

The talented Ellen Hall from Pipsqueak Numbskull and Anita Nobleza (pronounced I need a new blazer).

Swimgreen Treasures who are well worth checking out.

Lots of yummy things from Bake Sale For Art.

The most awesome pair of home made tights ever.

And last, but definitely not least, the coolest kid in town. He later stole the dancefloor.

Vintage and Retro Fashion at Hibernian House, Part III

Presumably, by now you know the deal. If you live in Sydney (or anywhere in Australia - it's totally worth the trip), you should be a regular at our Vintage and Retro Markets. Our next one is THIS WEEKEND, on the 14th and 15th of February.

We shall have food (of the home baked kind) courtesy of Bake Sale For Art, liquid refreshments, The Beatles and other awesome music (of the Ipod kind), a couple of curious cats, a big comfy couch to chill the flip out on, shoes, handbags and belts, bric-a-brac, a little jewellery, books and LOTS OF VINTAGE & RETRO CLOTHES.

This time 'round we'll have heaps more guest sellers including Marissa Ziesing (of fashion label FTW and whose styling can be seen in the latest Duke Magazine), Holiday Sidewinder and Daisy M. Tulley (of Bridezilla), Emma Harrison (of Owl and the Grapes), Swimgreen Treasures, Imogen Smyth-Prado, stand up comic Julia Clark, Frances Anderson, Bobby Townsend (of Drum Media and Bobbysix.com) and Dominique Legrand.

We've all been working extra hard to replenish our stocks with loads of new (old) shit in the aftermath of last month's masses of cool kids who emptied us like a glass of milk left out for Santa. So come along, invite your friends and bring your housemates.

P.S. Does anyone ever actually check my links? Cause they're totally awesome. And you're probably really missing out. Like, I link to Family Guy and Peep Show and bands and there's probably tons of references you're not getting if you're not clicking.
