That's Amore!

One of the many reasons I love abode is the people I meet.  They are interesting, creative and inspiring. Alyana is no exception!  She loves all things vintage and even designed her wedding dress to reflect that sensibility.  The hat, the shoes, the parasol, the stance . . . let the picture speak for itself.

Here is the first glimpse into the creative genius that is sPaRk.  I am using a new app on my phone called "I don't know what the hell I'm doing."  That should explain it all!

Contrition

Forgive me for loving this piece so much.  It speaks to my heart in silent whispers.  She takes the sacred and pairs it with the sublime - a vintage army tag and rosary brings to mind these lyrics from "Laughing With" from Regina Spektor

No one laughs at God in a hospital
No one laughs at God in a war
No one’s laughing at God
When they’re starving or freezing or so very poor

Raggedy Amber



Sufficeth to say, we have hip vintage fashions at abode, from the board room to the bedroom we've got you covered (no pun intended)!

Raggedy man?

Remember the stories for Raggedy Ann and Andy? Whenever Marcella leaves the room, the dolls come to life!



Apparently there is some of the same kind of magic goings on at abode.  Whilst I'm away, the kids did play . . . 


Oh, and did I mention we have a new collection of vintage clothing?


LOL

No rest for the wicked













Those crazy abode girls just don't know when to say when!  Not only did we have a fantastic final fLeA of the season, we also had a booth at the 9th & 9th street fair.  Fun and frenetic, we sold a lot of vintage clothing and those rockin' cowboy boots.  Now it's time to gear up for our fall event, "Made in the 801", you won't want to miss it!
