Wearing fur makes me feel pretty..

I'm going to an old Hollywood Christmas party this weekend in new york & i am so excited to get all dolled up! Of course nothing is more glamorous than fur, and I am madly in love with the mink trimmed vintage coats this year. I would just love to own one in a bright color like red, or peacock blue!

I just listed this gorgeous stole in my etsy shop:




And this amazingly luxurious rabbit fur coat!




As well as this little coat reminiscent of Jackie Onasis...


Isn't it amazing how a little fur can make a girl feel so pretty and sophisticated?
Happy Monday!!

giving thanks.

ahh i love the holidays!! thanksgiving was so wonderful and tonight i am looking forward to round II tomorrow with other family members! i'm a lucky gal.
i live for my aunt's candied sweet potatoes with marshmallows..

thought i'd share the thanksgiving centerpiece i put together using gourds from the local market, pine cones from the yard, tea lights, and a few thrifted pieces of course:
brass deers
small round mirror
blue mason jar- added by mom with ferns picked in the woods

Doesn't it look charming all piled together onto mom's wooden lazy susan?

simplethrift blog debut!!

My appreciation for all things vintage began as a child, shopping for treasures with my mother. Her artistic and sophisticated sensibility has had the greatest influence on my personal philosophy of style.

About a year ago I opened a vintage shop on etsy, and have enjoyed shopping, photographing, and becoming part of the etsy community. Things have really begun to pick up and I decided to begin this blog to share shop updates.

In recent news..last week THE Courtney Love Cobain purchased an amazing 1950's vintage coat with a mink collar from me pictured here. Apparently she is an avid etsy shopper!


Here are a few items from my etsy Holiday collection!
