Vintage Shopping Made Easy

Last week a friend and fellow style blogger, Sammy Davis,  came to my High School fashion design class to give a lesson on vintage fashion. Lucky them and lucky me. After she left I decided to dig into her new e-book The 100 Best Vintage Shops Online!  It's been like taking a course in vintage fashion. Here's the link -- you should check it out for yourself!

After what seemed like an off New York Fashion Week for me I was pleased to sumble across this photo on Huff Post Style! I'm wearing everything vintage (except the tights and bow which are from American Apparel). Click here to view more fashion, in the freezing cold, from the tents of Lincoln Center!

The Creative Cookie launched a crafty collaboration with the Queens Library last September. Since, we've presented 20+ workshops to some cool kids in the County of Queens. Our 1st sessions of 2013 start this week (yippee!).  If you know a teen in Queens, email me, we'd love to invite them to come backstitch with us!
