Vintage Seventeen & Glamour Fashion Magazines………

Vintage 1969 Seventeen Fashion Magazine

While browsing one my favorite vintage magazine seventeen, It was rather coincidental when I spotted a very similar collection of the pale yellow vintage Jonathan Logan dress that I had recently sold. I was thrilled to find the Seventeen magazine to reference and date the dress. Just wish I had found the magazine before I sold the dress.

Also, a few months back I won not one but three vintage Glamour magazines on e-bay dated 1972, 1969 and 1963.

I got them from this wonderful seller that did not hesitate to combine shipping! It was indeed a pleasant transaction and if you’re looking for vintage magazines for inspirations or you’re a collector you should definitely give Magazine Madness and More a try.

Vintage 1969 Glamour Magazine

As I started flipping through those Glamour pages. I immediately thought I can’t keep it all to myself and that it would be an awesome idea to share some of those pages with you guys! So be on the look out for “Vintage Magazine Pages” Title posts!

Have a wonderful weekend and have fun!

Flashback photo!............. 80's style!

First and foremost I’d like Thank each and everyone and all that are now a new follower as well a longtime followers for entering the giveaway on Aya’s Blog. Hope to post a lot more often, do tons of DIY projects and more Giveaways for you lovely readers!

vintage 1980s colour batwing sweater

Lately, I have been thinking how I used to dress to express myself so this photo shows how outrageously chic I once was! ;) Not that I don’t think I’m chic with my current style but I was more of a risk taker and not thinking about age appropriate styles and all.

I feel the older I get the more reserved my style has become but I don’t want to miss out on all fun part, which is being comfortable and happy and stylish! Right?!  Just a little bit different side of me but I don't think I'm going back to this style anytime soon.


Just reminiscing a little!!! ;)

Soooo! What do you think of this look? This photo was taken last year and posted only on LOOKBOOK.NU and Chictopia but I never had the chance to a post on it. 
Today we are having Thunderstorms and Tornado watch. Hope you’re having a much better weather than we are in Tennessee.

Have a wonderful weekend!

I have been drooling over these wedges for quite some time now and thought I'd share my heart throb of the moment with you all. Gasp!!!

These shoes are a tad bit on the expensive side but I truly think they are definitely worth it! don't you?!
Which of the two would you pick?! As for me I love them both equallly!! but If I really had to choose I'd have to go for the Zebra pattern first.

Forsythia Fever, Swiss dot Dress, Denim J-Crew Vest & Wedge Sandals

                                                               Photos by Mark.


The forsythia was named in honor of the royal British gardener William Forsyth who lived from 1737 to 1804. Its lovely but audacious flowers are one of the first signs of spring and the promise of warm weather to come.


Like the forsythia I too have lain dormant the past few months as the cold kept me inside most of the time. I thought of many outfits I would like to wear and the photos I would take but the forsythia and I thrive best In full hot sun so my best outfits would have to wait.

But… no More!

It is time for me to shout like the forsythias bold yellow blooms, “Winter is over! I will not stay inside any longer!”    So I celebrate the beginning of the warm weather with this spring inspired outfit.


I’m sporting:


♥ Vintage 70s Cream Sheer Swiss dot Dress ( Estate Sale )
♥ J-Crew Denim vest ( Thrifted )
♥ Tan Flatform Wedge Shoes ( Thrifted )
♥ Vintage Decoupage Box Bag Purse ( Estate Sale: will be on etsy soon! )
♥ Vintage oversized pearl bracelet ( Church Sale )
♥ Vintage heart shape pearl pendant necklace ( Estate Sale )
♥ Navy blue tights ( Target )

Have Happy Easter Everyone!

Joyeuses Pâques!
