I was just entering the 7th grade and I was a sucker for everything Reebok and Gap. I was a tiny little yuppie in training. While my love for Ronald Reagan and hi-top aerobic sneakers in every color of the rainbow waned, my love of the Gap did not. I still love the Gap.<br />

My mother had medium weight straight hair so she just didn't know what to do with it when I was a kid, so she decided to cut it short into a sort of Q-Tip mullet that I had frequently trimmed and blown out just like Tony Manero.<br/><br/>I let my hair grow long as I got older but I never really learned how to do it and sometimes I just want to live naturally and free and rock a white girl fro.

Kind of a mix of Victorian England with some 70's Gunne Sax, a splash of 90's babydoll grunge, a pinch of 80's New Romantic and topped with some Laura Ashley. It <em>could</em> be side effects from binge watching three seasons of Once Upon a Time lately. I am sooooo smitten with the fantasy.<br/><br/>[caption id="attachment_3753" align="aligncenter" width="372"]<img class="wp-image-3753 size-full" src="http://vintspiration.files.wordpress.com/2014/07/54d00c11eddb4cab8589d79ebe1e1607.jpg" alt="Unicorn" width="372" height="560" /> I would travel by unicorn if I could[/caption]<br/><br/>[caption id="attachment_3779" align="aligncenter" width="500"]<img src="http://vintspiration.files.wordpress.com/2014/07/915033f578050027356c1d0ad30d436f.jpg" alt="Why don't we wear more flower crowns?

I don't link to other blogs or websites idly. I have to really genuinely like it. Vintspiration is hardly a household name and I don't expect it'll ever be, but I'm happy with my little slice of the internet here. <br/><br/>I thought I'd list my five favorite vintage blogs here and share them with you!<br/><br/><img src="http://vintspiration.files.wordpress.com/2014/07/these-are-a-few-of-my-favorite-things-heart-283329.png" alt="These are a few of my favorite things..." width="232" height="288" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3716" /> <br/><br/>1. <a href="http://viderevintage.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Videre Vintage</a> - I may be slightly partial to this blog since it's written by my baby sister! She's a 20 year old art student who adopted my love of vintage back when she was in middle school and tagging along on my thrifting adventures. She was my original (and still occasional!) model and she's since opened <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/VidereVintage" target="_blank">her own Etsy shop</a>. Her blog is fairly new, but be sure to check out her post on <a href="http://viderevintage.blogspot.com/2014/07/i-woke-up-to-sound-of-rain-today.html" target="_blank">dreaming of that thrift fix</a> and <a href="http://viderevintage.blogspot.com/2014/07/i-have-to-apologize.html" target="_blank">her side of the story</a> on how she started her love of vintage. <br/><br/>2. <a href="http://deargolden.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Dear Golden</a> - I have a borderline unhealthy obsession with Dear Golden. Her Etsy shop is amazing. Her instagram is amazing. Her brick and mortar shop is amazing. Her home is amazing. It's just ridiculous how amazing she is. Swoon.<br/><br/>3. <a href="http://www.denisebrain.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Denisebrain</a> - I <em>adore</em> Maggie of Denisebrain. She's beautiful, smart and someone I've admired for years. I'm lucky enough to 'know' her a little though our longtime online social circles and I consider her blog one of the most fun out there. It's educational, but not in an overly scholarly way that makes you wanna snooze. It's cheerful, pretty and interesting - exactly like the woman who writes it!<br/><br/>4. <a href="thevintagetraveler.wordpress.com" target="_blank">The Vintage Traveler</a> - I've known Lizzie for years. First online and then I had the opportunity to meet her in real life about 15 years ago. Jeez, where does the time go? Anyway, her blog is brilliant. It's like being taught something new every day and I always come away thinking "Wow. That was really interesting." Seriously, every post is like that! <br/><br/>5. <a href="http://www.yardsalebloodbath.com/" target="_blank">Yard Sale Bloodbath</a> - A blog I can't even remember how I came across but it's a guilty pleasure, for sure. I dig their storytelling and feel like I'm shopping alongside them. Plus those junk in the trunk shots are my favorite part. <br/><br/>I really enjoy all the blogs on my blogroll, so feel free to click a link or two on my sidebar. And I'm always looking for new reads, feel free to post your favorites in the comments! <br/><br/>xoxo<br/>Justine<br/><a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/vintspiration" target="_blank">Vintspiration</a>JChttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13701530028053585156noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2129511131370676107.post-82147948850739246672014-03-16T14:08:00.000-04:002015-04-09T11:51:50.163-04:00Top 5 Stylish Movie CharactersLove the breakdown of awesome Vintage Characters on Wear What Style!JChttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13701530028053585156noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2129511131370676107.post-4101157792011953302013-12-01T03:00:00.000-05:002015-04-09T11:51:50.099-04:00Vintage Birthdays: DecemberHappy December Birthdays!<br/><p style="text-align:center;"><strong>Mary Martin: December 1, 1913 (d.

Joining American Horror Story: Coven, there's The Witches of East End on tv and recently Beautiful Creatures in the theaters.

Their classic cozy sweaters have been copied endlessly, but they're the original Norwegian wool sweater. Over the years they've wafted in and out of style but in my humble opinion have always been a staple of classic like Pendleton. <br/><br/>Their products are made by hand and they've been the official supplier of sweaters for the Norwegian ski team and the winter Olympics since 1956. In fact, each Olympic season a special sweater is made and are considered collectible. <br/><br/>[caption id="attachment_3578" align="aligncenter" width="440"]<a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/164210984/vintage-dale-of-norway-dusty-rose"><img src="http://vintspiration.files.wordpress.com/2013/10/il_570xn-507223991_bdtu.jpg" alt="vintage dale of norway dusty rose cardigan sweater m by vintspiration" width="440" height="586" class="size-full wp-image-3578" /></a> vintage dale of norway dusty rose cardigan sweater m by vintspiration[/caption]<br/><br/>[caption id="attachment_3579" align="aligncenter" width="440"]<a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/160816097/80s-dale-of-norway-sweater-blue-fair"><img src="http://vintspiration.files.wordpress.com/2013/10/il_fullxfull-496851349_1cdp.jpg" alt="80s dale of norway sweater, blue fair isle sweater, blue fairisle sweater, blue nordic sweater, blue ski sweater, reindeer snowflake by trashyvintage" width="440" height="660" class="size-full wp-image-3579" /></a> 80s dale of norway sweater, blue fair isle sweater, blue fairisle sweater, blue nordic sweater, blue ski sweater, reindeer snowflake by trashyvintage[/caption]<br/><br/>[caption id="attachment_3577" align="aligncenter" width="440"]<a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/153064590/vintage-dale-of-norway-wool-sweater"><img src="http://vintspiration.files.wordpress.com/2013/10/il_570xn-466030942_q5b8.jpg" alt="Vintage Dale of Norway Wool Sweater Cardigan / Blue White Nordic Snowflake Pattern / Vintage Scandinavian Folk Knit by VintageByBeth" width="440" height="586" class="size-full wp-image-3577" /></a> Vintage Dale of Norway Wool Sweater Cardigan / Blue White Nordic Snowflake Pattern / Vintage Scandinavian Folk Knit by VintageByBeth[/caption]<br/><br/>[caption id="attachment_3580" align="aligncenter" width="440"]<a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/160225729/1970s-vintage-dale-of-norway-nordic-blue"><img src="http://vintspiration.files.wordpress.com/2013/10/il_fullxfull-492505928_1g2x.jpg" alt="1970's vintage Dale of Norway Nordic blue wool vest s/m by WindingRoadVintage" width="440" height="661" class="size-full wp-image-3580" /></a> 1970's vintage Dale of Norway Nordic blue wool vest s/m by WindingRoadVintage[/caption]JChttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13701530028053585156noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2129511131370676107.post-17271013161670223412013-10-09T04:00:00.000-04:002015-04-09T11:51:49.993-04:002013 Bonnie & ClydeI recently hear about the cable miniseries event for Bonnie & Clyde coming in December and I am so excited!
