Tandem Antiques recently began following me on Twitter. I had never heard of them, so I checked out their link. And that’s when I found these little vintage beauties:

Welcome to the vintage brilliance of 26 Olive Street. Their old-school offerings and fabulously composed polaroid-style photos make me giddy (to an annoying degree, I’m sure). I bet they’ll have the same effect on you.

Here’s why:

Honestly, I’m not even sure how I came across Bord de Scène. It was one of those mysterious blog-links-to-blog-links-to-blog-ad infinitum types of experiences. But the important thing is that I found it. And it rules. And I bet you’ll think it rules, too. Here’s why…

French Friday: Le blog de la méchante!

Posted on 4 September 2009 | 2 comments

A “méchante” is a mean girl. Yet, Élodie seems as creatively (and fashionably) charming as they come. I was introduced to her site by the lovely Katrina over at Pugly Feet, where she featured Elodie as one of her style muses back in June. Trust me: you are going to want to steal ALL of Elodie’s outfits. It’s kind of annoying how adorable she is, really. Maybe that‘s why she’s la méchante.
