I just love retro outfits that are elegant, classy, and stylish. Ever since I was a young girl and saw "Miss Melanie Daniels" wear her elegant green suit in the famous Hitchcock thriller The Birds, I have been in love with vintage fashion. It's just something about a woman who is impeccable with her choice of clothing, from her head to her shoes; she is the epitome of elegance and class.

I love everything retro & vintage! One of my favorite things I currently own is my vintage LC Smith & Corona Typewriter, and I also own one of the retro Vitrola Record players below. If it's vintage, I want it!
Victrola The Quincy 6-in-1 Bluetooth Record Player & Multimedia Center with Built-in Speakers – 3-Speed Turntable, CD & Cassette Player, AM/FM Radio, Wireless Music Streaming (Mahogany). This would make the perfect addition to your home, and it would also make a nice prop for a retro photo shoot!
Victrola The Empire Mid-Century 6-in-1 Turntable & Multimedia Center with Built-in Speakers – 3 Speed, Bluetooth Connectivity, Radio, Cassette & CD Player, RCA Out, Headphone Jack (Espresso). This is the record player that I own, and I absolutely love it. I love that it has Bluetooth connectivity, making it a wonderful companion if you work from home as I do, or for simply relaxing on your day off. Whatever the case may be, you will love this retro/vintage record player.
Victrola Journey II (2025 Model) – Bluetooth Suitcase Record Player – Built-in Stereo Speakers with Enhanced Bass, 3-Speed Turntable, Bluetooth Input and Output, RCA & Headphone Outputs (Turquoise). I love color! I grew up in the 70s, an era where the appliances matched. In our home, even the toilet paper matched the paint and rug in the bathroom! General Electric's "Mix-Or-Match line" from 1955 included Petal Pink, Canary Yellow, and Cadet Blue, along with White and Turquoise. The manufacturers offered a wide array of appliances in these new colors, often promoting matching kitchen, bathroom, and laundry room sets. By the 1970s, more earth tones were promoted. Appliances came in shades Avocado Green and Harvest Gold.
These colors were often used for entire kitchen suites and home decor. The "earth tone" trend also included colors like white and brown.
This Victrola Record Player does not disappoint!

Made-in-Italy Water Kettle: SMEG KLF03 7 Cup Electric Water Kettle, Retro-Style, Soft-Opening Lid, Auto Shut-Off, 360° Swivel Base – Jade.
These appliances come in other colors, and the components are made from the same elements as Porsche!
