Such great finds! That dress is gorgeous.
I am DYING over that dress!
LOVE that dress, it caught my eye right away.
Question: how do you make that picture grid? I've been trying to figure out how to make one for some time now, but despite my (what I think are quite advanced =P) Googling skills, I haven't had any luck.
Ooh, good stuff! Time Life Nature library books are my fave:)
Love the vintage dress! So nice meeting you a few weeks ago!

That dress looks like it's straight out of Midnight in Paris or Boardwalk Empire (love it!).

Oh my gosh - the Edwardian Guide to Jiu Jitsu is hilarious! I too am in love with this beautiful and lady-like dress! What awesome finds, Shoko - they brightened my day!
The vintage dress is divine!
Love all of your finds.
The dress is amazing, I know - if only I had an occasion to wear it!
Raquel, I make them using Photoshop. I was totally lost before taking Blogshop, but the collage-making isn't too complicated. Do you have a Photoshop-savvy friend in LA who could give you some pointers?
Christina, was that a few weeks ago already? So great to meet you, too!
such gorgeous finds. I love vintage books and those photos are amazing.
we definitely have copies of THE SEA and THE FISHES at our house!! i wish that emerald-eyed cat was UP IN HERE as well...
What a great collection! I love the jiu jitsu book. Thanks for adding my wall hanging.
