This week has just zoomed by so quickly! My mom and I have been busy doing all sorts of things; I am planning on showing you some neat things I found when we went thrifting early in the week. We also did some sewing (tackling some projects from this book and my serger) yesterday as well–which is always fun! But for now, here’s this week’s round-up of inspiring posts. Mom is leaving tomorrow (boo-hoo!), so we’re trying to cram in a bit more fun and visiting before then!
- Sarai asked “what is modern luxury?”
- Super inspiring ways to add some zip! to clothing with buttons.
- A great set of tutorials on drafting your own skirt blocks (something I desperately need to update for myself!).
- Lauren of the Bobby Pin Blog shared a helpful video on curling hair for hair types that aren’t easily curled!
We are about to set off on another thrifting adventure (I haven’t been thrifting a lot in the past year–got to get it in while I can! haha!). So I will bid you all wishes of a lovely weekend! ‘Til Monday…
I really like these “Inspiration” posts of yours. Neat stuff! Happy thrifting, enjoy your time with Mom, and have a great weekend yourself!
Sounds like you have had a wonderful week together. Can’t wait to see what you two found thrifting. Have a nice weekend.
I really enjoyed Sarai’s post on Luxury too, it’s made me want to read the book now, so it’s on my birthday wishlist! Have a great weekend thrifting, hope you nab some great finds! xx
Hi Casey! I wanted to say a huge thankyou for the link back to my skirt page … I am planning the pencil section as we speak! Next week it will be up.
Thanks again Casey.

Very Interesting and beautiful blog!
I loved the post on modern luxury, very interesting. Thanks for sharing!
Have a fun time with your Mom, I can’t wait to see what you got.
Hi Casey! I love the images, they’re so inspiring! I added your blog to favourites on my blog (www.foginthecity.blogspot.com), I’m wainting forward for your next post
.
I have spent the whole day reading your blog, looking at your pictures and watching your tutorials. I like everything! The way your style has evolved is amazing!
Hi Casey, heard about your blog from The Farm Chicks blog. I loved your banner the minute I saw it & your 40s like style (being a 1940s lover myself)…and, you look like you stepped out of a ’40s magazine – you’re so pretty. You also remind me of two other blogs I like to visit “Diary of a vintage girl” and “The call of the Jitterbug Doll”…when I was younger I looked like I came out of the ’40s era and wished I could’ve dressed like that! I envy you gals, but it is great to see there are other like-minded “vintage lovers” & wonderful blogs to visit.
