Project Prom 2016 // Festival Season 2016 // First Friday Pop Up Shop

We have finally settled in the Village the past 10 weeks and it has been quite busy to say the least! Since our last blog, we have managed to pull off our Annual Project Prom Event to help our local girls in the community go to prom. We did a dress donation drive and held the event at Marathon Community Church. Thanks to everyone who came out and supported this great cause. This was our 3rd year doing project prom and we plan to do it again in the village next year.

We did our first festival of the year and we are so glad to get back in the groove of festival season. We love the community and enjoy meeting other like minded and creative beings at all of the festivals we attend. We were honored to be able to be a part of the Merck Mountain Spring Jam to help raise money and awareness to Helping Hands of Clemson. We love our community kids and support these children who are in need. Thanks to everyone who came out to support this awesome cause! Blu Butterfly Vintage is also planning to do music and art workshops on the "Front Lawn of the Village" with all of our village kids in the community. Details coming soon about these events as we are working out the details with local artists.


The First Friday of the month in the village are always hopping! The art crawl will take place through the village. There will be a block party with live bands with an oyster roast and some BBQ. AND we are having a huge Pop Up Tiki Party. We are hosting a group of other local handmade artisans and vintage vendors in the area at BBVintage! Check out our events page for more details and come join us for a personalized shopping experience. There will be food, wine and some live music indoors! https://www.facebook.com/events/246350735717028/


Last, but not least, we have a nice haul just in from Savannah! Come check out all of our latest collection of curated vintage couture. We are also making room for some upcycled vintage furniture pieces and wares. 


Stay tuned.....

Yours Truly & Still Flying,

Vintage Fashion Stylist Selena

What an eventful year it has been so far! It has been a transitioning into a golden age for us here at Blu Butterfly Vintage. Moving our store online full time back in 2016 was one of the best steps we took. We continue to grow and are looking forward to the new and exciting things we have been working on behind the scenes. Thanks to all of our loyal customers who continue to support us! We are grateful for our POSHMARK community, our EBAY family, and Instagram followers! Small Business does matter! We have hit another milestone celebrating 8 years of fun adventures along the way...in style of course! Here is a sneak peek of some of our cute spring & summer dresses. We have expanded our inventory with not only vintage clothing but also modern wear. We also are starting to carry vintage home goods and décor. Usually, those items do not even have a chance to make it online as they sell very quickly. As many of you know, we have been giving back to our community

BBV Summer Collection 2017: Summer Time Haul!!!

Image
I have been on the go since moving our shop online and making a big move to Orlando in August. After closing our brick and mortar shop, I have been more mobile to set up our pop up shops. It also meant being able to have more time to meet clients for inventory replenishing and fashion styling! I have always loved this part of my job in retail. As a buyer for one of the top surf shop's in Orlando back in the day, my passion still lies in finding the best pieces that my customers will enjoy for life. Styling vintage clothing has always been a gift and I don't take it for granted. I take every opportunity given to me to style lovely ladies all around me for every occasion. The next event that I have been getting women styled for is a Tea Party Fundraiser that is helping out for a Guatemala missions trip. Not only am I finding myself styling the ladies for this event, but I am also styling myself for the occasion. Here is a sneak peek at my 1930's dress....more pictures to com
