lundromat...

I don't mean to complain but I really hate the fact that Polaroid discontinued 600 Instant film...since I was a child, Polaroids have always held a special place in my heart...and now being an adult, I can appreciate the instant photographs on a greater level. Each photograph distinctively displays a retro vibe...and it makes my heart flutter. I can't help but to photograph EVERYTHING with my Polaroid camera...including my recent laundry trip.

winter delight...

'Vanilla Latte'

I woke up to a pleasant delightful surprise this morning...mom made french toast, topped with fresh strawberries and whip cream. It was absolutely DELICIOUS! There was also the delight of a fresh coat of snow outside, which sparkled under the sun...After breakfast, I made a special vanilla latte for my father and I to enjoy...it was the best tasting latte I have ever had in my life! (not exaggerating at all)

Everything from the meal to the coffee and cozy warm feeling inside was delightful....it felt like heaven.

american girl...

This photo caught my eye...her style is to 'die' for. The entire look loudly screams 'American Classic'...what great inspiration I now have to finally purchase a pair of those Edwardian shoes...

shake your polaroid picture

I just added these cool retro camera's to the shop a few moments ago...these antique beauties are perfect for creating soft colors and texture. Each camera is a Polaroid...what a lovely addition and/or start to a camera collection.

photo shower

Because today was short, cold and rainy, I spent most of my time at home drinking peppermint tea and categorizing photos for the Third Eye View, photography shop on Etsy. The photographs featured are available for sale and would be a great element to add to any home, office and/or space. The images above remind me of everyday moments captured at an artistic view point...hence the name Third Eye View...

All images will be up on 10-13-09, 3:00am EST

markdowns = summer clearance

I marked down a small lot of vintage items today...please see the Summer CLEARANCE section of the store. Most of these listings will be ending soon and I wanted to make it easier for vintage lovers (like yourself) to find these items before they are gone forever....as most of you already know, I do not list items for a second time around in the shop :(

There is a nice selection of traincases, retro aprons and even a cool vintage camera for snapping all of your favorite summer vacation moments!
