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:

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:

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:

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.
