TALES FROM A VINTAGE WARDROBE

Vintage Art & Wanderlust

For an absolute Vintage Art fix

please take a moment to visit

"I DESIRE VINTAGE"

which is where I found these lovely Pochoir images. . .

A bit of outdoor romance~~skating together. . .

 

A childhood favorite~~building a snowman with friends. . .

 

Seems the "Purple Obsession" is nothing new. . .some vintage outerwear fashion. . .

 

"Darling, let's go somewhere. . ."

 

The few I've shared with you are just a glimpse of the beautiful posters, prints and artwork you can find at

"I Desire Vintage"

Promise me you will take a peek!

 

 

Here in the North East we have been inundated with

COLD

and

SNOW

so I have been trying to take advantage of being stranded by cleaning out files, folders & images on my computer.

I tend to actually "OVER ORGANIZE"

to the point I sort of can't find anything. . .

can anyone else relate to that?

Here are a few more Vintage images I found. . .since I won't be going anywhere warm soon. . .

 

 

House & Garden Magazine

How wonderful would this be right about now?

 

 

House & Garden Magazine

This would be fine as well!

 

 

House & Garden Magazine

 

Yes, darling, let's go somewhere!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Are we related?

Oh, the joy of being a Vintage Clothing lover!  I wandered out the other day to do a wee bit of shopping, as my daughter is sick and we  have been cooped up for far too long for this suburban socialite. . .

At the very last moment I decided to make a quick stop at one of my favorite "haunts" ( you know. those "High Security" zones that no one else knows about. . .should you disclose location you will be eliminated. . .) and I ran across this Vintage Beauty:

 

An Oleg Cassini Vintage 1960's Brocaded Chenille Coat. . .

My heart skipped a beat

Well, maybe 25 beats, once I realized I didn't have enough cash

and my credit card was useless

at this establishment. . .

What's a girl to do?

I did the dance,

you know,

"I already have enough inventory to fill a floor on Macys"

and

"This is a bit on the wild side. . .other's may not see the vintage glam of it. . ."

and I

left

without the coat. . .

 

 

But I went back today

and guess what?

IT WAS STILL THERE!

SO NOW, IT IS HERE, AT THE RED VELVET SHOE

and I am left wondering:

Are we cousins?

My sister gave me this gorgeous Vintage Bag years ago

and I love it for the simple fact

that the strap is long enough to wear over the shoulder.

(A rare "wonderful" with vintage purses)

When I found this gorgeous coat,

I was obsessed with the thought:

"Is my Vintage Brocade Purse a Match?"

ARE WE RELATED?

 

Hmmm,

similar features,

but alas,

I do not think so. . .

Hope you have enjoyed this research into

my Vintage Family Tree. . .
