Apparently, according to a certain vintage editor, I have no knowledge of anything vintage and am doing this to gain popularity. Funny.  Do you know me? My background?  Do you know that, thanks to my late dad, I was introduced to music/musicians and films/actors of all eras at a very young age and have been hooked ever since? Do you know that I have been a vintage collector since I was 17 years old (clothing, jewelry, housewares, furniture…from the 1920s to the 1950s)? Do you know that I am now venturing into selling said items and had my first show this past weekend? Do you know that I studied architecture in school, focusing mainly on the Art Deco period? Don’t tell me I don’t know anything.  And, happily, I am still learning as I go.  As for the popularity…I am the mother of three daughters and I run a full-time business.  Do you think I give a shit about being popular on the internet? I have far more important things to worry about. I do this for fun.  I also have more important things to do than go onto your blog and steal “your” pictures. The pictures I find are from legitimate blogs…if “your” photos happen to be on those blogs, take your issues up with them, not me.  Leave me alone and stop your bullying.  

I apologize to everyone else who has read this, as it does not concern you.  I have kept quiet long enough after being dealt numerous very hateful comments and accusations.  Enough is enough (and I am not the only one who has been targeted).
