Monday Morning Blues

Doesn't it feel like the weekend always goes by way too fast? 
I constantly find myself hitting the snooze button at least five times every Monday morning. 
I'm ready for those warm summer days when I can sleep till the sun wakes me up, not worry about being late to school or work, and not have to rush my morning routine.
If the Monday Morning Blues have got you down this week, get inspired by these bright and sunny vintage items!


Monday Morning Blues? Not anymore!

Happy Hunting, Y'all!

A Big Thank You

Happy weekend, Twisted Vintage loves!

I want to take the time to thank you all for your love and support and for making this first week of blogging so enjoyable! I really had no clue what I was getting myself into when I decided to start Twisted Vintage, the blog, but I'm sure glad I did! Learning to navigate the blogging world has not been easy, to say the least, but all of your comments are so encouraging, and I can't wait to see where this little blog takes me!

Green with Envy

Are there certain images on Pinterest that you just can't get out of your head?
You know, the ones that you really can't remember if you've pinned once, twice, or who cares how many times? The ones that you keep coming back to over and over again for that same dose of inspiration you got the first time? Well, today I made a realization. While perusing through my favorite pins, I discovered a certain commonality: I absolutely love the color green. It doesn't matter if it's in the form of furniture, wallpaper, or vintage ads - I am clearly green with envy for this classic color! 


Happy Hunting, Y'all!

Vintage Style for Beginners

"How can I incorporate vintage into my own style without seeming too over the top?" 

I hear this question all the time, and thankfully, there's an easy solution! For those of you who are new to vintage or not ready to commit to a head to toe look, the easiest way to incorporate vintage into your wardrobe is through accessories. Personally, I love to accessorize with vintage jewelry because it is super wearable and in-style. If you're going for a subtle look, try out a delicate gold filagree necklace similar to ours from the 1920s. Or, if you really want to go all out, dress up a plain white tee or a simple LBD with some fabulous 'flamenco' earrings or a fun novelty necklace like ours from the 1940s. The options are endless!


Twisted Vintage carries a huge variety of vintage baubles, but I can often be found hunting thrift stores, estate sales, or even my grandmother's jewelry box for that next standout piece.

Happy Hunting, Y'all!
