Good things come in Threes

Good things come in threes--Meagan, Madeline and Leah--we think you'll agree! These lovelies came by OCT to shop on Saturday and they were lovin our retro goods. Take one look at their style and you will see why. Very-Very-Vintage and spot on--"Milly Style". You can get the look--OCT can make your Vintage Vision come true!

Oh--and btw, Megan shared with us that she works for backdropsfantastic at their Macon location, what a creative place to work--be sure you check it out!

Weekends--"Milly Style"

Classic houndstooth booties--we are lovin this trend--they look like the perfect comfortable weekend shopping shoes and Mallory was doing just that at OCT on Saturday. She tells us she is a frequent shopper and we get it--because all the stylish gals and guys shop with us--come see what you are missing!

Boho Illustrated

We loved Abby's Boho look and she loves shopping at OCT. She stopped by with her mom on Saturday and she agreed to let us snap a pic of her laid back style. We thought the locket/ watch necklace was vintage but it was new--and it came from Nordstorm--a gift from a really good friend --a friend with great taste we might add! We love Abby's "Milly Style" and she was such a sweetheart--we hope our Boho girl will come back soon!

Tribal Revival

Colin and Brhino were checking out the authentic Tribal Masks that Vendor #16 brought back from a trip to Ghana (Africa that is). Talk about unique-- these are the real thing--but something came over them when they agreed to model the Masks for a quick pic--not sure about the book selection Little Women ?
It was all in fun and Brhino ended up up purchasing the colorful mask he tried out, as a gift for a family member. These guys know how to have a good time and they certainly enjoyed their trip to OCT.

Little Women?

Top It Off

Top it off like Mary Lillie did--she was in the store Saturday and we just had to ask about her hat. It is a custom design from "That Garrison Girl"-- you can learn more here thatgarrisongirl about the Atlanta based milliner who is responsible for this great look. We've also got lots of great hats at really great prices at OCT, so come on by and see if you can find one that fits your "Milly Style".

Just Hanging Out--"Milly Style"

Daniel and Heidi stopped by OCT to shop on Saturday and they were lovin the vintage clothes and accessories they found at the store. We could tell from the hipster looks they were already wearin that they would feel right at home in our shop. Daniel is a student at GCSU and Heidi is a friend from back home--we like Daniel's comfy cords and the nubby green sweater and Heidi looks great in the skinny jeans with the classic maroon and white stripe shirt. Her sling strap bag definitely had a retro look--but it was new--and a gift from her mom. Way to go mom--we love the hip look--"Milly Style".

Filigree is Fine

We love this gorgeous vintage filigree necklace that Whitney was wearing when she stopped by OCT. Romantic and feminine--we think Filigree is Fine and so "Milly Style".

"Album Cover of the Week"

Check this out--the Hondells were an American surf rock band who hit the top 10 with the 1964 hit single "Little Honda". The song was inspired by the popularity of Honda motor bikes in Southern California during the early 1960's.
Check out the back story here wikipedia.org and you have got to see the video here www.youtube.com --it is so much fun to see what the cool cats were doing in the 60's and check out the chicks that were bouncing on the back of the bikes. Pick up your copy of the Hondells LP at OCT booth #26 and get your ride on!

Dominique had it going on today and the stylish mix of the fur lined boots and the floral boho dress were definitely "Milly Style". We loved her look and we were so glad she and her sister Francesca stopped by OCT today. This outfit works--check out this boho beauty--"Milly Style"

Two for the road--"Milly Style"

Marcus and Francesca (from Warner Robins) were visiting Mville today and made sure to stop by OCT. He was looking for a vintage album and found just the one he wanted in Booth #26--this Isley Brothers LP originally released in 1977. We thought they they were both stylin-- and they agreed to a photo so we could share their hip look with you!
