Cherry Cherry,Quite Contrary....

Cherries is a love/hate relationship for me.As a food of course I am a fan but in the sense of fashion its hit or miss.Cherries are adorable but anyone that's into vintage can tell you there is a cheesy aspect to the cherry.Done right=cute,done wrong=me rolling my eyes at some Hot Topic dress (oh I sound like a bit of a vintage snob there I know but hopefully you get what I'm saying).

I have 2 vintage cherry items in my shop that I've been wanting to give some press to so I thought I'd make this post an ode to cherry items I love on Etsy.

    I'm totally with you, sister! 10 years ago, I was all over cherries. Now, I can't help but look at them on any repro/Hot Topic dress, sigh, and die a little inside. Oh cliches, how I loathe you so. But your cherries are the real deal and super cute.

    (PS: Thanks for the cherry print blouse shout-out! xoxo)
