It is no accident that I am a vintage enthusiast. Pictures of my childhood in the late 60's capture me wearing black and white saddle shoes and baby blue cat eye glasses. I cannot remember a time that I was NOT playing dress up.
At the very young age of 6 or 7, I wanted to increase the wardrobe changes for my Malibu Barbie. My Grandma Mary taught me how to sew on her 1920's cast iron Singer sewing machine and my fashion direction took a new turn. In the 70's and 80's I created and sewed many a theatrical costume during my high school drama career as well as ones for my children in later years. No matter what the time period was; my costumes were always created with vintage in mind.
Incorporating vintage and modern fashions and accessorizing with textiles and millenary became my own personal style. Almost 30 years later- the story is the same but now I am offering my passion and love of vintage to everyone worldwide.
