This week I am mostly loving....

....Yellow nail polish.

Recently purchased vintage typewriter....

Over - the - top flowers you can pin in your hair....

Glass jars filled with chunky pearls and chain necklaces....

What are you loving?

At long last. I took the plunge....

Months of deliberating later....

Yours truly has undergone the transformation to brunette!!

After 10 years as a blonde, it was a big change that I wanted and needed.

Damn it feels good to be bold!

When did you last drastically transform your look...and did you like it?

Cherry Celebrations

As our vintage boutique The Cherry Closet has reached its 1st birthday - there have been some stylish celebrations indeed!

You can see a video diary we made for GLAMOUR magazine about how we got started and the ongoing love for all things vintage.

Have a GREAT weekend everyone, and thank you for all the support this past year.

Much Friday love,

Nicki
