magic child vintage: living the good life

In my blog-sploration today, I happened across the page (via the lovely Style Symmetry) of an online vintage boutique called Magic Child Vintage, the lovechild of two of The Beautiful People – Ashley Krantz and Ian Marshall. A exhaustingly adorable couple you will soon love to hate. Read on.

Their bio according to said page:

Ian and Ashley live together, on a farm, on a piece of land in Akron, Ohio. Also residing on the property are 2 horses, 1 goat, 3 dogs, and some cats. It is a fascinating land like no other. Living in the harmony of country living comes a powerful force of music and style.

Daily living revolves around efficiency & saving energy, right down to the clothesline dried items we sell online. While striving to maintain a GREEN lifestyle we keep our fingers firmly implanted in the latest forms of pop media technologies.

Our day-to-day business is conducted at two locations. The online Vintage Clothing Boutique is run from the farm, while our Music Production Facility is located minutes away in an abandoned glass factory. Both of our locations have low overhead and provide us with plenty of space to allow for an effective workflow.

We seek refuge in the rural landscape while we focus on expanding our ideas and growing presence globally. With an edgy sense for fashion, a fresh musical style, and a unique eye for images Ian and Ashley form a powerful POP media machine.

Really?? A couple of hot models in love, playing music on a farm with white horses – a magical wonderland of pristine vintage clothes, rustic photographic backdrops, and really really Good Hair Days?

If that’s too much American Dream for you to bear, make sure you think twice before taking a gander at the following most awesome vintage gems. Methinks it’s just about time for this blogger to take a midwestern roadtrip, if this is a sample of the bounty for hawk in the thrift stores of Akron, Ohio.

Too fucking cute.

After closing down their eBay store, the couple has had some success selling items from their Myspace page whilst readying their own site.

Oh, and in case you were wondering, items are pretty reasonably priced between $20 and $30.
