Stuff from the Fifties.
While searching online I came across this amazing article on photographer Niki Feijen, who is known for his haunting & beautiful photos of abandoned homes & other places around the world. You get the feeling that some one literally ran out the door in the middle of a moment & may be back at any moment.

Mad Men is a hit TV show centered around the working men of an advertising agency in the late 50s-early 60’s. The attitude, the machismo, and the time warp this show provided wooed its fans. We easily recreated the look with authentic vintage attire we carry every day.

Old does not mean out-dated. Vintage pieces offer craftsmanship and elegance rarely seen in today’s instant-satisfaction super highway. Pictured here are a 1950’s cigarette case, a stunning belt from the early 19th century, a 1920’s multi-level compact, and a compact mirror from the 1933 World’s Fair in Chicago. Everyday items with uncommon beauty.

This swimming costume is in great condition. The beautiful fabric and flattering lines make for a unique beachy look!
Summer isn’t all about flip flops and tank tops and letting it all hang loose. You can remain cool and classy in Hepburn-esque ensembles pairing 50’s Shaheen hawaiian print and fun toned light cotton trousers.
