thrift/vintage goodness.

I don't really like new things. I mean- truly new things. Unlike many people I know, I really enjoy buying things that have already been used. There is something about new items that are so impersonal and unoriginal. When I buy something that has been used and preowned, I feel like I am buying something with a story, a past, an interesting history. Whether it be a dress from the goodwill or a vintage 70's clock from the local flea market, these things make me a happy gal. Here are some vintage-inspired pictures that made me happy today.
