vintage finds - vintage accessories! June 18, 2009

it’s all in the details…

accessories can make or break a look, whether it’s black-tie, jeans & Ts, or even the look of your favorite room in the house. so above, i’ve assembled an array of vintage accessories for girls, guys, and home. because let’s admit it — sometimes you should sweat the small stuff.

ciao!
