Yaya...it's Caposhi!
Having an Etsy shop gives me an opportunity to follow my passion of finding awesome vintage clothing and passing it on to other vintage lovers. We had fun coming up with the name of our shop. You would not believe all of the crazy combination of names that we came up with! Why Yayacaposhi? Yaya and Caposhi are both 1970s terms; Yaya meant Yaya… we know we’re right and Caposhi meant stylish. So we put them together to tell the world that yes we know our shop is stylish!
I give credit to my Mom for my passion for vintage as we were always trying to save and reuse as I was growing up. We still love to go treasure hunting together at garage sales or estate sales or thrift stores.
There are so many reasons to love vintage! The quality fabrics, fabulous patterns and prints and one of a kind style of vintage clothing never disappoints. Sometimes we are lucky to know the story behind that special find while other times we have to do a little research to uncover the history of a piece.
Just let your imagination run wild! Who wore it? What they were thinking? Where they were living? Each special vintage piece is a mystery ready to be solved. But it's not just vintage clothing that I love.
Finding Mid-Century and Art Deco era furnishings and housewares are also a passion. So check back often as we strive to offer the best of the best of what we find and fuel your vintage passion too!
