Claire Incorruptible is an Australian Vintage-Designer online boutique, mainly focusing on the 80s and 90s fashion eras. The first time I heard about it was thanks to Style Bubble. What captured my attention was a  jacket by Norma Kamali that she published on her blog (second image bellow), I rushed to get the jacket but was already sold out, so hopefully I could recreate it. Since then, I have been browsing Claire Inc online boutique, and I must admit that they have incredible designer clothing and accessories for fair prices. I must say, that thanks to internet, we have the opportunity to shop exclusive pieces from the other side of the world, and I’m really glad about it, cause I could never find this kind of items in my town.

If there is one thing that I really miss from my previous hometown Nice, is the amazing Vintage boutique Caprice. I was desperate to find a Vintage boutique in Nice, and once walking in the old town, I passed by a shop that grabbed directly my attention. Lucky me, its was their opening day, and since then, I went nearly every week, not only to see if they had new stuff, but also to be surrounded of all those beautiful things, the Vintage smell, the designers such as Courrège, Chanel, YSL, Pierre Cardin, history, quality. I just felt so comfortable in that shop, as if I was surrounded by everything that gives a sense into my life. I get a slightly similar feeling when I’m in IKEA, don’t know why, so don’t ask.

Anyways, so Caprice just opened an online website, where you can discover all their treasures from the other side of the world. Where I am now. And the 50 first connected will receive a gift, so rush to log in….cause you’ll love it!
