Everyone needs a bit of glamour and rock and roll in their life......
c'est obligatoire, cherie. I mean, Rétro Chérie! :)
Today, it is with great plaisir that I write about a fabulous shop called
Rétro Chérie (http://www.etsy.com/shop/TreatMeNiceBaby).
This store, located in France, specializes in handmade rockabilly and vintage style jewelry and accessories. This is the perfect shop for nostalgic ladies and even if you're not nostalgic, let's face it: retro fashion will never go out of fashion!
At Rétro Chérie, you will find one-of-a-kind '30s, '40s, '50s and '60s style jewelry, made out of materials such as confetti lucite, celluloid and fakelite, which are perfect for that retro look! This shop not only proposes reproduction of jewelry but also creation of vintage style jewelry. Sounds like a retro paradise, right? Well, there's more! All of the gorgeous earrings and brooches from Rétro Chérie are made by........guess who?

Elvis.
Yes, you read right. Imagine my face when I received a message on my computer from Elvis!!! Rétro Chérie's owner's name is Elvis, a lovely and super talented person (and an Elvis fan, by the way), who hand-paints and hand-sculpts all of the creations from the shop. These items are carefully given birth at a workshop in Paris, called ''Treat Me Nice Baby'' (just like The King's song ;)). In this workshop, Elvis' job is also to restore ceramic artworks to keep Paris' cultural heritage alive, which is why the items must be indeed ''treated very nice''!
Elvis' passion for the glamour, music and lifestyle of the good ol' days is more than evident. Here are a few items from Rétro Chérie, to make your knees weak:

Bonjour! Oggi ho voglia di parlare en français perché vi porto in Francia, precisamente a Parigi, dove si trova un negozio meraviglioso: Rétro Chérie. Questo negozio è specializzato in gioielli ed accessori stile rockabilly e anni '20 fino agli anni '60. Io sono completamente incantata dagli oggetti di questo negozio, tutti fatti a mano usando perfino materiali 'retrò'. E indovinate come si chiama la persona che crea tutte queste opere d'arte? ELVIS. Già, come se non bastasse la bellezza degli accessori per svenire!! :) Elvis ha un talento incredibile e lavora nel suo workshop ''Treat Me Nice Baby'' (come la canzone di Elvis Presley ;)) dove non solo scolpisce e dipinge questi gioielli stile vintage, ma restaura pure opere d'arte in ceramica per conservare il patrimonio culturale di Parigi.
Adoro questi orecchini di Rétro Chérie che sfoggio nelle foto; sono unici. Come tutti gli articoli del negozio. Non mi sembra vero che finalmente si trovino accessori uguali a quelli che si portavano una volta <3 Gli orecchini e le spille che avete visto in alto sono solo un assaggino di quello che troverete da Rétro Chérie. Inoltre, potete anche richiedere accessori su misura! Negozio consigliatissimo. Su, cedetevi e lasciatevi trasportare in un mondo retrò, pieno di accessori scintillanti! La moda retrò non andrà mai fuori moda, cherie. Anzi, Rétro Chérie ;)

I confess: I am a Rétro Chérie addict! :) I am so impressed with the style and the quality of the hoop earrings I'm wearing. A while ago, I went to see the movie, Man from U.N.C.L.E, based on the 1964 TV series and I fell in love with the retro earrings that the actresses wear on screen. I thought it would be impossible to find these kind of earrings nowadays but Rétro Chérie proved me wrong!!
Among the items for sale, you will also find shimmery sea horse brooches, sparkly ''Martini Time'' brooch and earrings sets, Tiki, tropical and rock'n'roll style accessories. The icing on the cake is that you can also request custom orders at Rétro Chérie, so you can pick any style and color your heart desires! It doesn't matter where your heart is located because this shop offers worldwide shipping.
Rock and roll over to Rétro Chérie's shop!
