Fashion Friday:: Vintage Flair

Loves me some vintage style. That's not to say I'm completely opposed to modern design, I just have a strong preference for retro fashions. I generally shoot for some incorporation of the past and present. Well, in all honesty, I shoot for bathing with regularity, but should I extend myself to dress for any occasion I take my inspiration where I will. Some examples? Por Supesto.

For the Home:: The Little Things

A new house means new nesting opportunities, to add the little touches that make a house a home. Can that grammar possibly be correct? "...a house a home." I just don't know anymore. I've been packing. I'm exhausted. Here are some "little things" I'm hoping to bring into our new place...



Embroidered sheets are lovely and homey.





brightly lined drawers






adorable owl light plate







I have a small vanity just waiting to be filled with trinkets.







OMG. If only...

For the Home:: Splashes of Vintage

 I know it's usually a splash of color that one adds to a room but, if that colorful piece is also retro-fabulous, doesn't it make it all the more eye-popping? Indeed. Go bright to draw extra attention to the special find you want to feature in your home.


I am loving this lamp in a serious way.



What a great patio chair, or should I say, throne?



A telephone table?! The cuteness overwhelms me sometimes.

Rustic doesn't need to mean muted colors.
