“a simpsons tshirt from 1998 depicting homer defending his desire to be affectionate towards his son while bart is completely grossed out. it appears to be not as common a vintage simpsons tee as some others out there as i can’t find many other representations of this design but i will always have a soft spot for earnest homer loving his family 

shipping deadlines for holiday season definitely depend on the shipping carrier and i normally ship usps as it is normally the cheapest option but i will mail anything using whatever shipping method a customer wants as long as they’re okay with paying for a more expensive service! ideally an order should be placed a couple weeks in advance of when one would want the item to allow for holiday shipping delays in the mail system.”

. They are personalised, digitally illustrated portraits of people’s animals with a choice between 2 ready made backgrounds and they are emailed as A4 size (29.7 cm x 21 cm) ready for people to print and frame themselves! They can even print multiples if the pet(s) belongs to more than one household. Turnaround time depends on how many animals people have chosen so it could be between 2 to 5 days but still much faster than shipping. They also make for great surprise gifts. Here is the listing below, and I’ve attached an example.:

https://www.etsy.com/shop/birignao/?etsrc=sdt

One of my favourite items now available in the shop is this pair of Valentino Boutique purple satin shoes from Fall 1977 Ready-To-Wear collection, with rhinestones embellished heels. What makes this pair so special, beside their obvious beauty, is the fact that these shoes are a runway piece, and the model’s name is still visible on one of the soles. Also! After days and days of trying to document these beautiful shoes I managed to find a photo of a model wearing them in the runway backstage. 

Shipping from Rome to the US usually takes upto 2 weeks, but as we all know it can take longer around the holidays. In order for gifts to arrive on time I’d suggest placing orders by the first days of December so that packages can be sent out before the end of that week. Shipping to the EU instead takes upto 1 week. I still suggest placing orders by the first week of December to avoid possible delays.

Speaking of sales, there’s a new round starting on friday, november 22nd on Etsy, lasting till the end of the month. More will follow, as I set sales on specific categories/groups of items at least once a month – I always suggest keeping an eye on Instagram: @birignaovintage as that’s where I announce them.
