About Me

My name is Lynn Love Heins. I started buying vintage clothing in high school long before vintage was sought after. It was fun! I loved how zany and unique the fashions were! Throughout my varied career, I kept collecting as this treasure hunt became a delightful obsession.

I did a stint as a display artist/window dresser after high school and then worked as a fashion coordinator for Burdines in Miami. For 15 years I worked as a silver/goldsmith, producing my own line of jewelry and selling in fine galleries and museum shops in fifteen states, including The Walker Art Center in Minneapolis, and The Museum Of Contemporary Art in Chicago......then spent a long 16 years as staff artist and manager of a turn-of-the-century building in the greater Boston area filled with thirty plus stores and restaurants and lots of unusual folks (a steady paycheck with health insurance helps when you have children).

As time went on, I have become more and more involved in the vintage scene, selling my collection in multi-dealer antique shops and then on eBay where I continue to maintain my Vintage Lucy Ebay store. Sweet Vintage Lucy.com is my newest venture and will grow with new items added weekly! Today, hunting down the latest vintage finds and offering them to you here at VintageLucy.com is a full-time job -- and a dream job, at that! I also offer artistic retro creations, accessories and embellishments hand made by Vintage Lucy, most often using true vintage elements and patterns inspired by vintage beauties. See the satin roses and halter tops. I look forward to expanding this aspect in VintageLucy.com. I plan on launching VintageVavoom.com a more provocative sexy site to compliment VintageLucy.com in the future.

Here you'll find an inspired wide variety of true vintage, my greatest love, and a smaller collection of fine vintage-style retro fashions, with a specialization in dressy women's clothing from the 1950s and 1960s. We hope that you'll enjoy browsing the collection, and that you'll visit us again soon. I'm always finding new things that I know you'll love.
