Vintage Delight group owner Deemurph is loving vintage lamps lately and has had some wonderful luck tracking some beauties down. Take a look at her finds:

My eye for old chairs kicked off my vintage obsession, but now my love for vintage lamps is on the rise! It's not just the great old shapes and materials - look at the ceramics! - it's also the shades that come with them. Where can you find shades like these that won't cost a custom fortune?

Am I seeing correctly? This gorgeous Vintage Gray Suede Jacket, size small, is only $15? I'm so tempted to bid on it but I have way more jackets than I can keep up with. I can't stop staring at the soft suede and the slightly poufy shoulders. And yes, I used PicClick to find it!

The current bidding price is $14.99 and the auction ends on Wednesday, Nov. 11. Good luck and happy bidding!

You must have noticed the tweed rage these days. Everyone is wearing it in some form. I loved Olivia Palermo's tweed H&M shorts so much, I got the matching jacket recently. While most tweed jackets are cropped, this Vintage Gray Stone Tweed Coat, size small, is equally chic. It looks good open and closed, and the black piping and big buttons are super cute. Especially if you live in cold climate, I suggest bundling up with this tweed-tastic piece.

The current bidding price is $10.99 and the auction ends on Thursday, October 22. Good luck and happy bidding!
