re-n-vintage... recycling all the best bits

About Me



click here to visit...

I'm a 25 year old Brit-born Sydneysider who loves ebay and vintage clothing. I put the two together under re-n-vintage .

some of my previous items... (if you hurry, the top set might still be for sale!!)

My lovely boyfriend Dallas takes my pics...

as you can see, it's good that he's normally behind the camera :p

My Interests



Apart from selling vintage goodies , I love going to markets, op-shopping, drinking good coffee and eating alfresco. I like the beach and the city equally, I'm at home in the country or amongst skyscrapers. I love to travel, I have already been to Europe and Japan and would love to see more of Asia. I work for an environmental services company and I'm passionate about the environment and constantly worried about climate change, I try to reduce and reuse and recycle as much as I can. I think this is where my love of all things vintage and second hand comes in! But I'm also in the 21st century - I live on the internet in forums and on ebay, and am trying to become more fluent in html and css so I can make this look pretty!

I'd like to meet:



Vintage clothing lovers, other ebay sellers, and people from my past. Oh, and...

Jessica Alba
Agent Mulder
Lior
Missy Higgins

+ George Bush (to poke him in the eye)

Music:



I like a variety of music, from electronica to retro, rock n roll to chillout and everything else I can't put into a genre box! Particular favourites are; Sia, Zero 7, Royksopp, Portishead, Crazy Penis, Groove Armada, Air, Lemon Jelly, Morcheeba, Massive Attack, Thievery Corporation, Ben Folds, Coldplay, Lior *sigh*, Ben Harper, Jack Johnson, Missy Higgins, Blur, Gorillaz, Fatboy Slim, Goldfrapp, Stanton Warriors, Krafty Kuts, Prodigy, Blackalicious, Hilltop Hoods, RJD2, Jurassic 5... but then I also like cheesy 80's music, vintage Michael Jackson, and the Beatles, very eclectic really. I listen to Triple J and FBI , antidotes to the oversaturated commercial rubbish played everywhere else. I also love going to live music, desparately wanted to go to Splendour this year, I love dancing like a hippy for hours :D

Movies:



I'm mostly into comedy (but not romantic comedy), some action stuff, or even more arty stuff. I can't stand horror movies, all the stupid sudden violin noises make me jump *blush* British movies tend to be pretty good, though I saw Getting Square recently and was impressed, despite it being an Aussie movie.

Television:



I don't watch much television - the internet is my tv. I do like some shows though; Red Dwarf, Arrested Development, Scrubs, Family Guy, The Simpsons (the older ones)... I used to be a HUGE X-Files fan, and also loved Dark Angel (Jessica Alba, yum!) I like most British tv, and hate most reality tv shows.

Books:



I'd like to read more, but find myself on the net too much! I don't mind flicking through the odd fashion mag at lunchtimes though, just to see what the cool kids are up to :p

Heroes:
