We do not know if it’s the Mad Men effect or the recent news about the Indian Postal Service closing down the 160-year old telegram service. Either way, we have seen a spurt of recent recommendations on the retro theme.
That tells us something.
Those retro shopping recommendations are indeed timeless! Now to welcome back the glorious decades of the past, we are featuring the top recommendations on the retro theme over the last year.

Vintage Style Cushions from Coppy Cat
Pranita Mehta says,
Saw these simply elegant vintage and love inspired cushions at Coppy Cat. Many even have the newsprint text and prints. Just lovely.
Vintage Chain thrifted from Koramangala V block, Bangalore
Ann Loraine says,
This was one of my most surprising and best bargains upto date. A vintage Marilyn Monroe chain for just rupees 100. And well it was not bought from any of those high end boutiques but from from a street seller. Poor versions of Audrey Hepburn,Sophia Loren were also sold by him. But this chain had an extremely clear picture of the 60’s pin up doll Marilyn Monroe. So all the lover of vintage and junk jewellery make sure you do not miss any of those charming bazaar shops selling junk, you never know what you would end up discovering.

We guess this stroll down memory lane brought back nostalgia and we hope it transfers to a fun shopping spree now.
Woop!
