Hi! My name is Daryn and I am the sole maker and curator of Little Light Vintage.

My interest in fashion began around 8 or 9-years-old when I learned to use a sewing machine. I'd spend hours crafting pillows and stuffed animals, tote bags, and clothing - even selling some of my creations to friends at school and taking custom orders.

My love for everything vintage began when I was 16-years-old when I wandered into a thrift store one day and found an embroidered 1970s prairie dress for $2. I gave it a chop and hem, paired it with my Minnetonka lace-up moccasin boots, and wore it to death. The feeling that I got from wearing a one-of-a-kind garment with a history felt so much more special than wearing anything I could buy at the mall.

As soon as I got my driver's license, I was constantly on the hunt for vintage clothing.

By my early 20s, I had accumulated a decent collection. I established the shop in 2010, shortly after I graduated from university in efforts of funding a summer trip to Europe. At the time, I had no idea that it would become my full-time job a couple of years after I launched.

Nearly a decade and a half later, my passion for vintage has only grown because of the uniqueness and sustainability it promotes. It goes hand-in-hand with my love for sewing and fixing things up or customizing them.

In addition to clothing, I am always searching for interesting textiles to make one-of-a-kind pieces out of, many of which you can find in the exclusives section of my shop.
