Why I prefer vintage

The style...

the details...

1940's swing coat from Nifty Vintage

This kind of classic design never goes out of style!

Oh, me, too! Only they were so much smaller then. (especially their heads!) ;^)

There is good vintage, and then there is the 1980's polyester leisure suit!

I became a vintage hound after the movie Pretty in Pink and haven't looked back (...or is that forward?) since! Awesome finds!

Cool :) I am liking them now too...in case I am late, an early Merry Christmas to you and Mark, and everyone at home. Big hugs always and muah2 too!

The difference may have been that not as much of it was SOOOO mass produced. Smaller quantities. Perhaps people were willing to spend more money for quality then, too. ???
