vintage

Recent generations seem to consider __ld-fashioned_ thinking as out-dated and without place in the modern world. I beg to differ. After all, who has greater faith? He who looks to and learns from the past, or the man who cares not for consequence?

His eyesight was possessed by the colours of trauma, cracking and bubbling like an old Super Eight film to remind him of his near-death drowning some two months ago in that very moment when he needed to act.

Oftentimes she wondered what had happened to super 8. Sure, it made perfect sense that nobody wanted the hassle of spending money on a three-minute cartridge of film and threading it through a projector, but though digital cameras were convenient and cheap, Mandy didn__ care. Super 8 had integrity, it wasn__ just nostalgia, it was art, it was history, it was a little recording medium that somehow possessed the power to evoke lost memories, to turn back time, and there was something dazzling about waiting excitedly for a reel of film to come back in its yellow and red Kodak envelope, eating buttered popcorn while the projector paraded life__ best moments, and capturing something beautiful in only three minutes.

Moments later as we crossed the road to the 50__ diner, I recited the restaurant rules in my head one more time.Rule one: Keep your hands clean.Rule two: Careful with the food trays.Rule three: Visit the soda fountain as often as you like, but don__ make yourself sick.Rule four: Enjoy the poodle skirt.

I love the smell of old books,_ Mandy sighed, inhaling deeply with the book pressed against her face. The yellow pages smelled of wood and paper mills and mothballs.

I seem to know all the cliches, but not how to put them together in a believable way. Or else these stories are terrible and grandiose precisely because all the cliches intertwine in an unrealistic way and you can't disentangle them. But when you actually live a cliche, it feels brand new, and you are unashamed.

Black and white, oldest of the vintages, newest of the last season.

I collect vintage cars, so you always find them in my books.

I don't like new cars I'm into vintage cars - there's a Jaguar E-Type in the 'Goldie' video.

I love vintage cars because you can do so much more to them.

I would never wear a look that was all the same designer. I always wear at least one thing that is vintage. I dress according to my mood, and I usually spend money on the basics, like leather jackets, handbags, sweaters and shoes.

Everything I buy is vintage and smells funny. Maybe that's why I don't have a boyfriend.

It's sad that the cell phone is replacing the watch as a time-telling device. I wear a vintage watch that's really skinny.

Luckily I don't have to buy shoes anymore, because I design them! I'm off tour, so I can dive in and create the shoes that I want for my line. But okay, I did buy a pair of vintage combat boots because they were so beaten up - I had to have them.

I like old movies, screwball comedies, vintage clothes, and basically I'm an old-fashioned gal.

I shop at a lot of vintage stores because the prices are amazing, and I love the idea that there's a history behind the piece I'm wearing.

I love history... everything is inspired by history, so that's why I love vintage and antiques.

The best way to look stylish on a budget is to try second-hand, bargain hunting, and vintage.
