Purchase Vintage at Modern Nostalgia

It's official! All of you stylistas have even more ways to get that great Apple's Haberdashery luxury vintage look! Apple's Haberdashery vintage purses and accessories are now available at Modern Nostalgia boutique on Allen Street in Buffalo, New York.  This is a perfect union of contemporary fashion and time tested style.  If you have yet to visit the store you'll be pleasantly surprised by the clever decor and first-class designer labels.  For those "jonesin" for a glamma fix, I've stocked the store with clutches that are so hot you'll need an oven mit.  As always if you want the best in vintage just look for the pink feather and velvet label.

It's Dr. King's Birthday and groups everywhere are commemorating the life of this civil rights leader by engaging in community service activities both great and small.  It is also a time of both despair and triumph as we witness, experience and empathize with the people of Haiti as they endure the aftermath of the 7.0 earthquake that has claimed countless lives and destroyed the physical landscape of this beautiful nation and its loving people.

With the state of the world seeming a bit hopeless I searched to find a reason to blog today.  Everything in my world seems trivial compared to what others must face.  Therefore I am going to use this opportunity to pray for all people affected by the earthquake.  I am also encouraging people (myself included) to give of themselves in whatever way they can, whether it's through a cash donation, taking in of refugees, going to Haiti to provide medical care or anything that may be of assistance to those in need. 

New Year, New Ventures

Happy New Year!  It's three in the morning and I can't wait to share the news that I'll be hosting a regular lifestyle segment on Upfront TV news magazine.  The show will air on ABC, Channel 7 WKBW TV, whose market encompasses Western New York and Southern Ontario, Canada.  The concept for the show is much like the blog.  I will continue to bring you current trends in the vintage and antique world with clever tid bits on repurposing.  However, we'll be exploring these treasures within the context of the beautiful Niagara Region.  Expect the premire in February.
