I'm Not THAT Obsessed...Yet.

I typed in "Vintage Samsonite Train Cases" in the search engine on Flickr...



...and this from Queen of Re is what came up! Wow. I love- and I do mean love- these. But that's even a lot for me!

(Enough posts for today...see you tomorrow with some creepiness!)

Always,

New Obsessions

It all started with this past Saturday's finds. Well, no, back up.

It all started with one of my most favorite people in the world: my Grammy.

She has had this tradition for her children and grandchildren for some time: we can all "put our name" on something of hers that we are especially fond of. And when she's gone, it is ours. I don't want to think about a time when my Grammy will be gone- ever.

Thankfully, over the years, I've inherited a couple things early. One of these things is Grammy's mom's vintage gold evening bag. Although I've only carried it a couple times, I've always kept it close to me.


My "New" Vintage Evening Bag, Family Thrift ($0.99); My Great-Grandma's Purse


Now, fast-forward to this past Saturday. I found a vintage beaded evening bag at Family Thrift for a mere 99 cents! And, really, how could I pass that up?

I can picture my future vintage evening bag collection- hanging on the wall all pretty and fancy.

And the vintage pins and cool sunnies I found Saturday have also begun a mild obsession with both items. I mean, what modern girl can't use some neat accessories to amp up her wardrobe?



My current vintage sunnies collection: More to come, I'm sure!


Always,
