Old telephone

My special appreciation of old has an ample scope.
If you are talking to me and want my full attention, 
add the word "old" in front of whatever you are going to say.
I am all ears.

Zora fashion grey pleated skirt - NY&Co. blouse - Fergalicious beige shoes -  Marc Jacobs wanna be bag 
It could very well be a vintage bracelet or an old jar. 


The fact that an item has been used before for every day needs, 
- not for decorating but as a functional item makes it 
even more interesting to me.


Gold tone bear bracelet - Gold tone chain scarf brooch
So when I stumble (on purpose) on an item that just rings my bell,
I can only hope it's affordable and light enough to carry in my suitcase.


Lucky for me it was: this 1900's wooden wall phone came home with me
from Peru a few years back.

It now sits in my living room and I can only wonder....
how many good news and bad news were shared over this
little one.



Oh, and Happy Canada Day & 4th of July !
you are so lucky to have a long weekend...

I love old things, too. Your skirt is adorable. I have a similar one (with a poignant story behind it) but the skirt looks better on you.

What lovely found objects! I too love vintage items in my house and wardrobe. I like it when an item has a story to go with it.

Haha, I'm often interested in antiques as well, but I mostly go for stuff I can use in the kitchen; especially my pyrex bowls from the 70s, haha.

I love your pleated skirt - I can't seem to style my white one in a way that pleases me and isn't too "bloggery", if you know what I mean.

I love old things too like vintage Singer sewing machines and old school type writers. I would have snatched the phone up in a second if I could afford it!

I'm with ya on vintage, although it seems harder and harder to come by as the stores get picked clean. But when you do find something and there is a story attached it's meant to be!
