We’re less than two weeks from Christmas, so now is the time to wrap up holiday gift shopping if you haven’t already! In the event you need a few last minute gift ideas, I’ve rounded up a few of my favorite finds from this year that would make any vintage lover happy. From vintage-inspired makeup […]
