Glittery gold and silver screams “where is the party?!” Apparently the party is over at Tiddleywink’s Etsy shop where vintage is queen and shop’s selection of metallic vintage is oh-so alluring.

Retro metallic shoes and purses are being routinely being featured in top international magazines. The fashion revivals in this shop are designer re-dos of vintage fashion.

If only I could find vintage pair of shoes that fit.

Ribbons have been a symbol of love since the beginning of ribbons. Gifts of tokens of love. Given to women from men and taken out of their hair and given to men. Tied to locks of hair as love tokens. In 1917 ribbons and the military was tied together in song. “Around her Neck she wore a yellow ribbon” In the 40′s during WW2 the song made a comeback with a much different beat of course. The Military even sang it as a cadence.

In the 1970′s “Tie a yellow ribbon”

became a hit and later a symbol for American hostages held in Iran.

Since then Remember Ribbons have turned into Awareness ribbons for various causes. Isn’t it good to remember it all started with love.
