I'm SERIOUSLY into 40s/50s stuff and I am young and have no excuse! I have tons of vintage dresses (that I actually wear) and I am trying to redo my room with all vintage and retro pieces.

The young teens right now don't remember B&W TV or even knew what a rotary phone was, let alone how to use it! (I have both still hehe)
