I love the Vintage 70′s CHANEL Cream White Quilted Leather Box Handbag, soooo gorgeous! I would wear it with a vintage dress and pretend I’m Audrey Hepburn
http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/4875204/7037349.htm
I just bought a turquoise ruffle/ruched skirt for summer – these Emilio Pucci sandals would be an amazing addition:
http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/4399397/5409578.htm
I would add a tan colored James Perse V-Neck tee from my collection and carry a turquoise clutch. It simply speaks SUMMER!
there’s lots i LOVE at rice&beans, but these shoes are my favorite!!
http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/4289461/6348044.htm
I think this item, the chain-link and pearl necklace: http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/4875204/6960861.htm, is the ideal piece to accent my black bikini.
i like this sweater
http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/4289436/5147019.htm
i love everything, i want it all:)

I love the Vintage 80′s Etienne Aigner burgundy leather flat boots, but then realized they are not in my size, so I’ll have to keep looking. Cute stuff!
Paige’s last blog post..And that comes with a nap, right?
Vintage Late 70′s Early 80′s Indian Print Boho Wrap Skirt is beautiful!
If I had the Vintage Pre-90′s Chanel bag I would wear it with a classic little black dress, letting the bag take center stage. And when my escapades were over, I would place it gently into my dresser, tucking it into the dust bag it came with.

http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/6257997/6865250.htm
I really like the Vintage 70′s Hand Crochet Bohemain Romantic Vest. That would look beautiful with a long flowy skirt that I have:)
I love the 70′s leather belt with rainbow trim
http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/4875204/6971901.htm
I’d wear it over a LBD, white mens button down with cut off shorts or over a gray tunic or top.
At the moment, the Vintage 80′s Black Nautical Inspired Sun Dress looks hot for the summer. But the 50s is coming back and the Vintage 50′s Black Frame Envelope Clutch would look classic with a flirty top, dark jeans, black heels, minimal jewelry, and a sleek ponytail.
The Lanvin silk & leather geometic print maxi skirt would look so cute paired w/ an off the shoulder black shirt!
http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/4399382/6822498.htm
i’m lately loving yellow!
http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/4289436/6975821.htm

http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/6257986/6422741.htm
with brick red opaque tights, a chocolate brown tight fitting tunic with loose sleeves, my green croc leather clutch and chunky earrings!
i need these!
thisiskami’s last blog post..This dress is spectacular.
http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/4364560/6653946.htm
This piece is hot! It’s bold, chunky, fabulous, and unique and I love the turqouise so I would totally use it to dress up a black deep V top to make this necklace really pop and bring out the color in my eyes!!!
I would pick…
http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/4875204/6968662.htm
I would definitely say my favorites are these shose:
http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/4289461/7020113.htm
and I would wear them with a pleated skirt and a lacy top, plus a parasol!
Michelle’s last blog post..Marvelous Monday: Late Edition
This mustard skirt is the perfect yellow:
http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/4289436/6936139.htm
the croc booties!
http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/6257986/6422741.htm
How fun! This dress is catching my eye:
http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/4875204/6968662.htm
I love the light fabric (perfect for the hot weather we have!). I’d totally layer it over a colored vintage slip, and play up the 70s vibe with a big straw hat (that I don’t wear enough!), basic flip flops, and a pretty gold charm bracelet.

Fave item: Vintage 80′s Silk Snakeskin Print Bow Tie Blouse http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/4289436/4977428.htm
Tucked into a high waisted, fitted white skirt and made mobile with gold heels,this blouse is the beginning of a teachers gone wild video series.

I’m in love with this gorgeous chanel dress:
http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/4399382/6653964.htm
I would wear it absolutely with high black heels..
très chic!

I love these 70′s red boots! so chic!
http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/4289461/6252832.htm
Not that I can afford it, but I love this Chanel dress:
http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/4399382/6653964.htm
Would be a stunning piece to wear on a special date – or to my sister’s wedding (if I wanted to really stand out).
http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/4364560/6957158.htm
I love hats and nautical things, so this hat would be a very prized item in my collection indeed.
I’m thinking a simple ivory dress, mid thigh length, and some dark gray platform ankle boots and a sailboat to the side.
-K.
I’m mesmerized by these silver shoes:
http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/4289461/6936831.htm
They’re like wearing mirror balls on your feet!
Oh, I just love this handbag:
http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/6257997/6957036.htm
It’s the COLE HAAN Forest Green Leather Small Shoulder Handbag and I think I could wear it for many occasions…casual or formal. But the color and the design are absolutely fabulous!
http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/4364560/6709320.htm Absolutely love that ring… so versatile, rich, and gorgeous
What a lovely competition!
I love the balck and silver dress – it’s totally over-the-top and (as Samantha would say) Fabulous!

In love with these flats! I wish I was a size smaller!!
http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/4289461/6709310.htm
I would wear them with a high waisted skirt, tee and my amazing new cobalt blue military jacket
.-= fashionista´s last blog ..The 2009 CFDA Fashion Awards =-.

What a wonderful site, I’ve fallen in love already with Rice & Beans Vintags! I decided to start my outfit with an accessory since I live for those.
The first thing that struck me was a bright and sunny yellow and white polka dot plastic bangle bracelet. It will be my little bit of pop of color and will make my outfit stand out! Then I also came across the cowgirl hat ring that is my quirky addition that will get those “Where in the world did you get that?” questions, which I adore.
Now I cannot forget my purse and since I like wild and bright jewelry, I will try to go neutral on my bag. So when I found the 60′s off white crochet handbag with wooden handles, I know that would be perfect for this outfit.
I know I work backwards but it really works for me. I have a good visual of what I have chosen so far and I just have to find that perfect clothing piece that makes it all come together.
I was looking for something that would look great with a crochet off white purse and a yellow bracelet and then my eyes saw the incredible Vintage 40′s Brown Eyelet Lace Dress. It couldn’t have been better in my fashion forward dream! It works perfectly with all my accessories and is so flattering!
All I need now is a pair of shoes to finalize the perfect vintage outfit and I found them when I saw the Yves Saint Laurent White Leather Heels with snakeskin ankle detail from the 80′s. They stand out in a sexy kind of way with the woven criss cross detail at the back of the ankles and match perfectly.
This outfit is complete and ready for a night on the town!
.-= Jen Fitz´s last blog ..LateNiteCreator: @BellaMental I was just wondering where the lighting bugs have gone too also? We could only find a few lately and there used to be tons. =-.
I love this one shoulder dress!
http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/4875204/7039361.htm
So cute for summer!
i don’t typically wear watches, but this is FAB!
http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/4875204/7052883.htm
http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/4289436/6882724.htm
This dress and a pair of cutoffs and I’m totally set for summer!
http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/4875204/6960902.htm
This just popped out to me as soon as I started scrolling through the items. Scarves are my favorite way to accessorize! I would love to wear this beautiful scarf with just a simple tank, maybe in a light coral pink, and a comfy high waisted skirt with some strappy sandals. It would be a perfect outfit to wear out with my boyfriend when we’re just hanging out and getting coffee.

THIS BAG. FOREVER. But only with the perfect sleek little black dress.
Although I’m a little obsessed with the studded denim jacket you posted up there, as well…

http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/4399382/6819092.htm
love both these items the most i think – so exquisite and so very wearable. you can dress them up or down and theres a fun story behind it!
http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/4289436/6562288.htm
I would wear these in the cold Canadian winter tucked into my black leather boots and my black bomber jacket so I could feel like a lumberjack without being one.
http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/4364560/6361835.htm
This isn’t clothing. I would give them to my sweetie.
http://www.riceandbeansvintage.com/catalog/item/4289461/6936831.htm
I’ve been longing for a pair of silver shoes, and these would be just the ticket! Too bad they’re a size too big.
