Wallflower Vintage Presents: Am I Blue?





One of my all-time favorite artists is the incomparable Billie Holiday. I've been listening to her for years, so as I was posting this blog - the words to Am I Blue? kept popping into my head.

Am I blue, am I blue
Ain't these tears in my eyes telling you
Am I blue, you'd be too
If each plan with your man done fell through...

WallflowerVintage presents: Pleated Story



You can have your cake and eat it too! First make sure to hand-paint your terra cotta planter and scoop your ice-cream into miniature flower pots...

But really, you do realize that unassuming, yellow enameled cup contains a bit 'o mama's Tanqueray and tonic.

Oh, and try not to grip Sally's hand so hard.

WallflowerVintage presents: 1967


Bright, bold and funky! Wear as lounge wear or show your personality at your next soiree. Super wide palazzo pants create a gown feel, with all the comfort of slacks. The sensual peek-a-boo back juxtaposes the high neck in front. Whether lounging or clubbing, you'll be the star of your party.


Sweet and sassy styles were all the rage in a 1967 Ladies Home Journal. These adorable outfits could be made at home. They still look fresh today - well maybe not the hat...

A groovy little jumper perfect for a co-ed on her first day on campus. Just add a pair of Frye boots and a leather saddlebag full of books.

The 1960s are back in trend. What a great little belted dress. We brought it up-to-date with a tall pair of rustic boots.

The trendy hairstylists in a 1967 Ladies Home Journal promised the short cut to be the wave of the future.
