Fab Finds: All Things Rockabilly & Pinup

I came across some awesome finds this week that I just couldn't pass up, so I thought I'd share them with my readers!

Cats Like Us is one of my favorite retro and vintage reproduction clothing and accessories store. They are based out of Tonawanda, New York, but have a very large online store and offer reasonable shipping, so I use shop their store quite a bit. Their selection of vintage, rockabilly and pinup reproduction clothing and accessories is quite impressive! This week I picked up a few t-shirts and accessories that were just too cute!

While passing by Hot Topic the other day, I found an awesome shirt that I just couldn't pass up. I love black and white monochromatic color schemes, stripes and Johnny Depp...so when I came across this raglan punk shirt, I just had to have it!

I hope you've enjoyed taking a peek at my goodies I found this week!

Vintage Pinup & Rockabilly Photo Shoot Opportunity

To all of my local readers in the Northeast Tennessee area, (Tri-Cities, VA/TN/NC area), I have a wonderful opportunity for you!

The Vintage Loving Mom is partnering up with Lane Photography and Reed Restorations to host a vintage pinup and rockabilly themed photo shoot for an upcoming calendar that will be produced this Summer. The calendars plans are to include a twelve month spread of area pinup and rockabilly girls who are into the vintage scene, including plans to shoot at several different area locations using authentic and reproduction settings and props.

Pictured below are just a few inspirations of what genres may be included in the photo shoot.

Good luck!
