Nerd Boyfriend

I was just reading some of the articles on the frontpage of Etsy and found this totally cool article. A guest curator who has the blog http://www.nerdboyfriend.com/. She puts together stylish vintage pictures of men and then locates where similiar pieces of clothing can be found in these more modern times. This website is soooo fun! The style I liked the most was the one below of Simon & Garfunkel.  But mostly the ensemble of the black peacoat and khaki pants.....okay, so I'm kinda into preppy. 



You should check out the website.  It's super interesting!

The Ikat Trend

Anthropologies newest home decor line includes the Ikat print.  A feathered, flame-like appearance.  Ikats date back centuries and are created by tying and dying lengths of yarn before weaving.  I like these prints because of their ethnic, funky and colorful appeal!

Speaking of Ikat. This dress doesn't exactly have an Ikat print, but it sure does remind me of it. In SassySisterVintage now!
