It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that...

You guessed it—BLING! The good news is that bling-y jewelry is really in for fall. The better news is that vintage bling is the best—at the best price—that you will find!

My September theme is a small tribute:

Spice is the variety

Looking at Pantone’s color forecast for fall 2015 makes me want to eat curry. Herbs and spices are on the menu, along with earthy bright colors. Every color looks like it was selected from a Moroccan rug. My August theme is a tribute to this savory fall palette:

The vintage selfie

Ever think how different the world was before phone pics? Just try taking your own photo with a film camera! 

My May theme is a mash-up of selfie mania (vintage-style) and a favorite song from West Side Story:

Check please!

Did you notice that gingham check fabric is a major trend in fashion this spring? I love seeing this because the inspiration feels so vintage!

My animated March theme is a small tribute to the vintage gingham check originals:

Autumn warmers

Things are starting to cool down now here in Spokane, how about where you are? This makes me very happy in one way: I LOVE coats! Especially VINTAGE coats! My theme for November is a small tribute:

Stay warm and stylish! ♡

You’re a star

I’m not much into impersonating an icon head to toe, but I love to catch one or two aspects of their style.

My theme this month is a tribute to finding the star in yourself!

Laaaa-zzzzy

This is the time of year when most of us in the Northern Hemisphere are warm (or hot) and could use a break.

First, if you don’t keep track of denisebrain on Facebook, I invite you there now for a cool break on vintage clothing.

Summer breeze

This is the time of year when I hand wash clothing that I’ve saved up for fair weather. I have two laundry lines and hang the clothes out to dry. Nothing quite like the smell of clean laundry-line clothes!

My July theme is a tribute to my clothesline and the summer breeze that dries everything so quickly and well. It’s a vintage technique that I can thoroughly endorse.

May wallflower?

Let me coax you into blooming~! 

My inspiration for my May theme was a small hoard of bright, unused, bright, flower power, ca. 1967, bright (...did I say BRIGHT?) items I have ready to list. You seriously can not hide in these dresses!
