Vintage Nashville

I scored some amazing finds at Thrift Smart when I was in Nashville.  It's rare for me to have to make selections among things I like, normally I rule out most of what I pick in the dressing room.  I like going to new stores for fresh meat that I haven't already picked over.  There was a vintage record store in the same strip mall, so I posed with Dolly.



There were camera issues, which ruined most of the pictures, but it did give a few of them a cool effect.  Here's my favorite fierce effed up shot.


I'm all eyeballs and fingernails!

Falls

There's lots of falls in this town.  Gorges and falls.  Seemed like a great place to take photos, especially since I'm on a kick of finding the coldest place in town to be.  I also had to overcome my fear of woodsy serial killers to venture out for these shots, but they're really more on the West Coast... or so I've gathered from various programs on A&E.



Today's outfit is a tribute to Petrune!  My favorite vintage store in Ithaca, which suffered a fire in their basement a few weeks ago.  The locket and pants I'm wearing were purchased at Petrune before their fiery downfall.  Good news though, they are open in a temporary site with a limited amount of merchandise on sale.  Hopefully they'll restock in time for holiday shopping!

Flower Power


I was shocked to find some decent fabric for interiors at JoAnn.  Up here, there just isn't the fabric selection that I've grown accustom to, and I certainly can't pop into the D&D building on a whim, so when I discovered Robert Allen's collection for JoAnn, I was pleasantly surprised.  These curtains were a fun sewing project.  Now I'm ready for a challenge.  Bring it on hideously shaped silk dress with gorgeous fabric!
