New Vintage

Interiors shot by stylist Selina Lake

Is that what this is called - new vintage? I think I still like modern rustic better. But what do I know...

Both seems to have rough edges, signs of wear, faded patches, clean lines, modern silhouettes, and femininity.

It's lovely and it seems to be what everybody is doing - even the traditional and classic designs of J Crew have a softened edge, a touch of sparkle and the gentle pattina of age.
