pepis-tag.jpgI love to shop at Victory Vintage. Just the tags alone crack me up. They’ll say something like “this is an old hat mold. That’s all I really know about it,” or they will say that someone was a windbag, like the one on this book I just bought Betty Pepis Interior Decoration from A to Z. This book is actually fantastic, explaining design terms from “decoy” to “rococo.” There are so many pictures I want to share with you from it that I’ll probably do another post in a week or two, but for now, here are some fun vintage modern inspiration photos from 1965.
