The holidays are quickly approaching and it's no surprise that you have a variety of personalities on your gift list.


But what do you get the girl who has it all?


Well, we've made it easy for you. We have curated a special collection of luxe vintage and secondhand pieces from our Sapphire Skies Collection that will suit anyone on your shopping list -- from the rich auntie to your classy cousin.


The key is to recognize her personality type and the key items that suit her.


Here's the perfect gift for ...

The Rich Auntie


This relative or friend exudes a bold confidence not only in conversation but in her fashion choices.


She loves to travel, dine out, and lounge in luxury even if she has champagne taste on a beer budget.


She can't be bothered with fussy dresses or skirts but likes to relax in comfort.


We recommend gifting the rich auntie in your life with a vintage lounge set in a bold jewel tone and the following accoutrement to take the pajamas from home to the party.



The Classy Cousin


The classy cousin has it all -- success, love and a profound sense of purpose. She is driven, reserved and contemplative.


When it comes to her sense of fashion, she is conservative but stylish, often playing up her strengths. She might shy away from color but when she wears it, she is sure to make a statement.


We recommend opting for a simple cocktail dress in a rich jewel tone with some sort of surprising detail such as a one - shoulder strap or floral embellishment.


Pair this dress with timeless yet interesting jewelry such as a pretty pearl earring and matching watch.

The Wall Flower


It's difficult to know what to get the introverts in your life. These are the friends or loved ones who would prefer to stay in and read a good book over going out.


This friend loves a well - developed story not only in her personal life but in her wardrobe, which makes her prone to nostalgic references in her fashion choices.


We recommend opting for a vintage dress in a floral or whimsical pattern.


Couple this look with a pearl tier necklace and cluster earrings for that perfect nod to yesteryear.





The Glam Girl


This friend loves to play dress up. She finds any excuse to don a gown or a cocktail dress. She is the quintessential fashionista. She loves fur, glitz and all things glam.


She loves a party but would rather host than be the center of attention. She is the consummate aesthete, always designing, rearranging and decluttering with the goal of bringing beauty to the forefront.


We recommend gifting the glam girl in your life this playful vintage dress that gives a nod to old Hollywood prestige.


Pair it with cluster beaded earrings and a sequined clutch for a elegant night in or ritzy night out.




The Sexy Sophisticate


This fashionista loves to look good for her man. She works hard to maintain her great figure by eating healthy, working out and simply enjoying life.


She loves a great bodycon dress or curve - hugging silhouette.


We recommend opting for a figure - flattering vintage dress in a bright pop of color.


Couple it with a pair of petite stud earrings for a sophisticated date night.

Fall Travel Capsule Wardrobe

Vintage Vegas Glam: 10 Days in Las Vegas



ree

Whether the goal is to pack light or provide inspiration, a capsule wardrobe is the new "It" way to style your wardrobe.


Capsule wardrobes are minimal collections of pieces that fit together for cohesive styling. So 10 pieces could create an endless array of looks because all the pieces, including the shoes and accessories, go together.


The inspiration for this travel capsule wardrobe is a trip to Old Las Vegas. Think '70s Vintage Glam mixed with street style sensibility and modern - day comfort.


Shop the Looks

In your mind, you might be thinking, "Aren't capsule wardrobes kinda boring?" Well, maybe. Because, let's face it, the more basic the piece, the more often you wear it.


But this capsule is anything but boring.


It's colorful, vibrant, full of statement vintage pieces and did I mention real and faux fur? You can use this travel capsule wardrobe for inspiration to shop your closet ... (I do this all the time. It saves you time, energy and money while giving your old pieces new life.)


Or you can show support and shop the sustainable secondhand pieces below.

The Sunset Collection: Behind The Scenes

By Taya Flores, High Street Fashion Co. Co - founder

Every piece of clothing has a story.

There's the creation story conceptualized by the designer. After that little seed takes root, the retailer weaves the narrative of aspirational living: This is the dress worn by the thirty-something world traveler, who loves history, vacationing in Italy and a bohemian lifestyle.


It's where you want to be and these are the clothes that get you there.

But what happens when the clothes are discarded? Does that legacy fade into oblivion?


Here at High Street Fashion Co. we love second-hand clothing, not only because it's affordable and ethical but because it's sustainable. It breathes new life into already - made pieces that would otherwise be in a landfill.



As co-founders of a vintage and second-hand boutique, Quintessa and I often find our inspiration in thrift stores and the backstory of our fall collection is no exception.


Someone in India hand beaded one of our thrifted finds. The craftsmanship is impeccable and the shirt is made out of pure silk.


Another person hand-beaded a silk handbag. What are the odds?



These beautiful finds laid the foundation for our new fall selections that comprise: The Sunset Collection.


The collection sets metallic golds and hand-beaded craftsmanship against a backdrop of warm yellows, oranges and rusty reds. The styling is transitional and features a variation of layering options that can be worn as the weather changes.


The color story is evocative of the sunset, hence the name of the collection.


We hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed curating and styling it!


From our closet to yours,

Quintessa & Taya

XOXO
