First off, I want to thank everyone who follows me here, on Facebook, Twitter and at Google+ for joining me and enjoying what I do.  I really appreciate your comments, LIKES and Pinterest re-pins because it lets me know I’m helping and spreading the fun!  

Although my blog is not made up of pages from my book, you can still learn a lot from it.  If the photo some day doesn’t appeal to you as something you would wear, take the time to read about it anyway.   I’ve been collecting true vintage since before I was out of high school, so you’ll see what the real deal looks like and get a description of what makes it unique, lovable and special.  I also give ideas about how to wear  things that may not have occurred to you before – really expands the possibilities for something that might have looked limited to you at first.  All this helps you to think about what you would like to look for that will work for you and let you make your own personal fashion statement.

You’ll see lots of items that you won’t see anywhere else, because that’s one of the things so great about true vintage – most of it wasn’t mass-produced in a jillion copies of the same thing and a lot of it has gone by the way-side since its original time.

Although I’d have to say that I write mostly for people who don’t have a lot of experience at collecting true vintage and want to learn from my adventures, there’s something here for everyone from newbies to experts.  I know that I enjoy posts by other experienced collectors, too.  There’s always something new to see and you just never know . . . . .
