Lulu's Vintage Blog

I created Lulu's Vintage Blog in January 2006 for me to be your vintage shopping selector, picking what I felt to be the best of the web to share with my readers. Along the way I have learned a lot of things and I hope you have too!

Thousands of blog posts including Manly Mondays and Fashion Fridays, and numerous style interviews later I decided it was time for a refresh.

I've republished what I consider to be the crème de la crème from my backlog of posts for my readers to enjoy and I am excited for the future and new look of Lulu's Vintage Blog!

"Art Deco Sourcebook" by Patricia Bayer. I didn't realize how many books I had on Art Deco design until I started doing these book reviews! I have had a love of Art Deco ever since watching the Poirot mystery series in the 1990s. I have mostly amassed my collection of Art Deco books from my favorite thrift store in Portland. This particular book on Art Deco is from 1988 and features color photos of Art Deco design. Art Deco Sourcebook has chapters on all aspects of Deco design such as: Furniture and Interiors; Glass; Fashion and Jewelry, and Graphics. #lulualamode #aestheticallypleasingbookoftheday #artdeco #designbook #vintagedesign #vintagestyle #bookreview #bookstagram
