Vintage BUM-CAKE

August 03, 2012 1:30 PM

BUM-CAKE, launched one year ago by Christiana Greene, is a vintage collection of hand-selected pieces from around the world. BUM-CAKE, originally a blog started by Greene and friends, is a term of endearment. The very friendly Greene’s love for vintage pieces started with thrift shopping with her mother as well as getting vintage pieces handed down to her from her grandmother and great-grandmother. With striking pieces from the retro Crayon Blouse to Greene’s favorite Pizzazz Dress, BUM-CAKE’s new collection, Dazed, is full of pieces that brings a smile to our face as a result of the colors, patterns and true passion. Greene is planning her second men’s collection for sometime in February and eventually hopes to have BUM-CAKE become a store on wheels, traveling to different parts of the world in order to spread the vintage vibe worldwide. You can check out BUM-CAKE’s new collection, Dazed, and others at www.bum-cake.com
