A Hand Full of Vintage

*Vintage rings and bracelets - family heirlooms*

My love for vintage (and fashion) started with my grandmother. When I was a little girl, my grandmother fascinated me – she looked like a silver screen movie star. I remember her hair falling gracefully over her shoulders in perfect golden waves. She had poise, grace and was always impeccably dressed - with an incredible style to match. Her well-manicured hands and perfectly polished red fingernails usually donned one or more of these lovely rings and bracelets – and now, these beautiful pieces adorn my hands. I have many of my grandmother’s jewelry and clothes, which I wear proudly, and there are some items that I wear almost every day. I feel that she is physically with me when I wear any of her garments and bijoux, and although I carry her in my heart with or without these items, I find there is something comforting by wearing them.

When did your love for vintage begin?
