Vintage Lifestyle: Color & texture

By Blog

I’ve always been drawn to color. Lots and lots of color. In college, my favorite class ever was “Color Theory.” It was a required class that I thought had nothing to do with my major and therefore was a major waste of money. Boy was I wrong! Maybe it was because it was all. about. color. Maybe it was the weirdo professor who, on the first day of class, exceeded all of my expectations of art school by jumping up on desks…

Inspiration Monday

By Blog, Inspiration Mondays

We are a day late to our Inspiration Monday…but today feels like Monday to us! We spent the weekend in Iowa for Easter. It was absolutely beautiful in Iowa.

Like…was it all really that beautiful last year?? Life is amazing like that. Speaking of amazing, here are some of our…

Vintage Lifestyle: $5 Outfits

By Blog

I had no real motivation to leave my house Saturday until I unearthed a $5 from beneath the receipt infestation that was growing in my bag. Saturday is usually a big shopping day for Dingaling Vintage but I got real lucky this week and maxed out my thrifting budget by early Wednesday morning. Enter $5. These days there isn’t much you can do with $5. You can’t go see a new release movie at the theater, fill your car up…
