Beautiful Vintage at Closet Case Vintage.
I was tooling around online one night and ran into Closet Case Vintage and oh my goodness they have some beautiful things! The picture above is from the Closet Case Vintage Look Book and the link above is also for the look book. Here is a link to their Etsy shop too: http://www.etsy.com/shop/closetcaseVNTG. I love the pictures in the look book they are so dreamy and the clothing is so beautiful. I want it ALL!

Hey! Check out Jitterbug Vintage on Etsy.
My friend Julie has just re-opened her Etsy shop so click on the link above to take a peak. She has many cute things to offer. If you are in the Portland Metro area and you see something in her shop for a last minute Christmas gift she has even said she could arrange a met up to ensure the gift arrives on time (make sure to convo her before placing your order). If you do not see anything for a Christmas gift then consider checking it out for a possible New Years Eve outfit instead.
*On Etsy Julie says: From now till Christmas I can mail your item within 24 hours (Mon - Sat) of receiving your order!

Summer Fun in the 50's.
I love posting summer pics in fall/winter - I love being warm and wearing summer clothes...I guess I just miss summer.
A while back I had a photo shoot with one of my photographers, Jim Dorothy of Gladstone Oregon http://jdimages.smugmug.com/. I blogged about it previously and I also promised to show more photos from that shoot, you can follow the link here to see that blog post: http://artdecogirls.blogspot.com/search?q=soda+fountain.
Here are some more pictures from that shoot:
The Soda Fountain above is a darling place that is also an antique mall, they have some great things there and on a historical note JFK stopped off there during his candidacy.
The Hot Rod Pizza (we had our photo shoot there even before they were officially open, they graciously allowed us to do our shoot there but who can complain when a darling vintage model comes knocking on your door with a photographer, right?). Hot Rod Pizza is located in Milwaukie Oregon, they will deliver your pizza to your door in a cherried out hot rod. I am sad to say I went to their website and they have actually closed their doors!
The Flying A Gas Station is a gas station located in Gladstone Oregon, this place has been restored back to its hey day, when I was last there it was no longer an operating gas station but a store of some sorts. Here is a link to the website and it also has some nice pictures of its restoration: http://www.oldgas.com/info/gladstone.html.

Just checking in.
Last Friday I ended up with a second degree burn on the palm of my hand so I will be out of commission from blogging for a little while so it can have some time to heal. Other than that I am doing grand.
