South Korean Vintage Shop
Last week my husband did a bit of exploring somewhere in South Korea and he captured this scene in front of a vintage shop he came across.I of course asked if he went in and he said, "I can't go into places like that with out you."Translation, "Um, no. There was an electronics store around the corner."
I think it's absolutely lovely and doesn't it look like it could be in any old American town? That is what I think is so intriguing about this photo. We're all really not that different after all. Especially with the sign out front that reads "Vintage & Espresso Bar". Too cute.love & pretty shops,nicōle
Miami Twice Vintage
Yesterday I took a little mini-excursion into a shop I'd not been to in over ten years (since I moved away), Miami Twice. I would go there when I was in high-school and just get all googly eyed over all of their antiques and retro pieces. Yes, I was into vintage when it wasn't a cool or hip thing. It was so great to go back and find the store still carried all the fun stuff. I could literally spend the entire day-but since I had the little guy with me, that wasn't feasable.While there I fell in love with this green 1950's number-went and tried it on only to find that the zipper wouldn't go past my rib cage. I wanted to cry because it was actually really affordable at under $50. The second dress I tried on was so cute, and totally me too. It was a magenta polka-dot number that I just may have to go back and get! 
I think, if I could I would probably fill my entire wardrobe from the pages of Vogue magazine of years past (mixed in with some contemporary pieces too of course!)
