Tonight is the night! June 12, 2009

Our Fashion opening featuring Revamp’s new summer line is tonight, and we are celebrating all the great revamp fashion with our Ode to Revamp.
Today I’m going to celebrate Revamp clutches and Tux Dresses.  The oh, so cute clutch made of various vintage scrap material, combined with cute buttons and sometimes lace.  We love how versatile they are! And the Tux dress is a long time favorite, ready to party or to drink tea.  These dresses are perfect to take on vacation.  They also look cute as tunics over jeans.

50’s style party dress June 10, 2009

We are continuing our ode to Revamp with this lovely 50’s style party dress that I wore to my wedding party in May.  Classic design and summer cotton make this one fun and flirty!  Kara

Oh, the Revamp tee June 9, 2009

Michelle of Black Skies rocks an Eagle tee by Revamp

We continue our Ode to Revamp with the classic Revamp tee.  Created from 2 vintage t-shirts, this tee embodies the spirit of recycling, while saluting all those great slogans of the past.

I Heart This Dress May 8, 2009

I heart this dress so much! From the color to the sweet lace accents, it just makes me want to melt. I love the neckline and the side cut outs are just perfect. It even has a matching jacket. The fabric is lightweight cotton blend perfect for summer days. All you need is a field of daisies, a soft red blanket, and a case of IPA and you are set.

I Spy Something Red, Day 2 April 29, 2009

This is the perfect time of year for a great scarf. You can tie on in your hair, to keep the wind off as you travel around town, you can add one around  your waist to give that summer dress added color, you can drape it over your lamp in the evening for ambiance, and you can use it to wrap up a special gift.

Come in and check out our scarves. Mention this post and get 20% off any scarf!

I spy something red… April 28, 2009

Brillant in Red

This sweet, red, cotton sun dress by Brilliant, one of our talented Roulette Vintage designers, has me dreaming of county fairs. I love the simple satin straps and the yellow vintage buttons. Add a hand tooled belt by Radcow and a worn in pair of vintage boots and you will be the talk of the fair. Come in and check it out, before it’s gone!

Feel like a Super Hero! March 23, 2009

We think everyone feels like a super hero in great vintage.
And Roulette Vintage is all about great vintage for you.

Our Etsy models are wearing masks because they feel Super.
When you buy vintage or handmade, you can feel good about what you wear.  Not only are you supporting individuals who share your love of beautiful things, you’re also buying green.
Supporting Etsy and your own town’s locally owned stores and craft markets makes you a super hero in our eyes.

Lots of Love,  Kara & Rebecca

Our newest favorite February 26, 2009

I absolutely love this dress. You can never go wrong with lace and roses.  The pattern just makes me think of spring, hill tops, and picnics. This would be a great dress for a romantic afternoon filled with champagne, strawberries, and your favorite old cowboy boots.

You can check it out on our etsy site today!

Love, Rebecca

Holiday Wonders December 16, 2008

Wondering what to get your loved ones for the holidays?  Or yourself, because lets face it, we all need a little something this time of year.

Well, we’ve got lots of the truly beautiful items in the store right now.  Both vintage and handmade.   Perhaps that perfect gift is waiting for you at Roulette.

So many of our local artists have brought in new items for the holidays.  We’ve got lovely jewelry by Anna Young and Ai-ling Chang.  Plus screen printed tees and handbags by Yuli Ink.  We’ve also got awesome Carrboro tees and other prints by Flytrap.  Monster tees by Matt Hart.  Great hairpins and earrings by JeneanXO.  Headbands and shopping bags by Robin and Tarish.  Scarves by B-knits and Brilliant.  Hot holiday dresses by RiverTC, Exile and Revamp.  And so much more!

I wish I had time to be more eloquent about each of these amazing artists, because they are amazing.  But the holiday season is in full swing, so instead, I’ve posted lots of pictures, so check out our Flickr site!  And here’s a teaser:

Happy Holidays and lots of love,

Kara and Rebecca
