Last weekend I was lucky enough to spend a few days in New York City, and as I wandered around soaking up the inspiration, a stop at the ledgendary ABC Carpet and Home was a must! The first things I saw in that glorious store stopped me in my tracks and I’ve been thinking about them ever since. Shelves and shelves chocked full of lovely, rustic white and clear glass tableware- so gorgeous! White and […]

Vintage Wedding Dresses for Modern Day Bodies

March 19, 2008 | editorial team

Last month I did a post on vintage wedding dresses, and got a great question from a reader asking how to find vintage wedding dresses that fit a modern body. I knew there had to be lots of solutions out there for lovers of vintage clothing, so I called in my resident vintage expert (and big sister) Chela to get some advice.
