Local Designer of the Week: Vintage City Classics

Author: admin // Category: Fashion, Fashion Events

I had the privilege of starting out MNfashion Week at the Vintage City Classics studio on Monday night. Jen, Holly and Joan are the masterminds behind this fabulous jewelry line. They take vintage jewels and reinvent them into modern pieces. We got to take a peek into their creative process and make our own treasures at the studio which was such a treat. If you want to buy a piece of your own, check out local boutiques June and Via’s Vintage. Become a fan on Facebook to be in the know of all the local trunk and fashion shows they are a part of!

If I could put on any outfit today, it would be this one. I love the soft feathers mixed with the hard edge of the black leather jacket, belt and chains. LOVE! LOVE! LOVE!

Almost twenty years ago, I made my first trip to NYC and bought this postcard. I found it in a box

all these years later. It still makes me smile.

The Last of my Thirties

Since I turn 39 today and my blog name is inspired by Christian Dior, I thought this would be the perfect post for the day!

‎”Women are most fascinating between the ages of 35 and 40 after they have won a few races and know how to pace themselves. Since few women ever pass 40, maximum fascination can continue indefinitely”
