I’m totally addicted to the vintage-inspired fashion and housewares that have been hitting the mainstream. If you’re a fan of the retro, be sure to check out Anthropologie— they sell both clothes and housewares and I just want to move right into their catalogue. In the market for the cutest kid’s clothes? Check out Mini Boden. Both stores are really affordable when on sale, and sometimes even when not. Urban Outfitters just launched a new line of 1940s inspired wear. And I’ve even seen throwback styles at Old Navy, Gap, Gymboree, and Crazy 8.
Pictured: “Both Sides Blouse” from Anthropologie’s 50s Proper Collection; “Scallop Trim Coat” from Boden; and the already-got-it-for-Flora “Flower Shift Dress” from Crazy 8. Not that she needed another dress, let alone a vintage one.
are these some of THE dresses?
I love mini boden — have you seen the kids’ screenprint horse/bunny/cat shirts from last year and this year? Not retro, but retro 1970s. Reminds me of shirts I loved as a kid.
P.S. I want that coat in the middle photo!
M: No, these aren’t any of the vintage lot from ebay. I swear I’ll get around to taking pics of those and posting them before Flora turns 18.
H: I’ll check them out! Oh, and that coat can be yours for a mere $198.00, and it comes in blue and purple, too!
