I can't get enough of telephone purses, which were popular in the 1940's and 50's. I'm crossing my fingers that I'll get one for my 21st birthday!
I have been obsessed with the Titanic ever since I read Polar the Titanic Bear as a young child. I guess I've always been a history nerd, ha! Anyways, there is currently an amazing documentary on Netflix that explores the ship's last few hours. Highly recommended if you're in the mood for a doc!
Who else is counting down the days until True Detective's season finale? I can't even remember the last time I was so invested in a TV show, this series is truly incredible.
Blue Hawaii is just pure visual stimulation. If I had a time machine, I think I'd immediately transport myself to Hawaii circa 1950/60. My grandpa was actually stationed at Schofield Barracks around 1954. I guess my romantic view of Hawaii has stemmed from growing up on his military tall tales.
I recently started collecting bakelite, which is an early plastic that was popular from the 1920's-50's. I have a few bangles so far and a beautiful fruit necklace, I'll share a picture soon!
