About me

Gender Female
Occupation vintage shop owner
Location New York, NY, United States
Introduction I am a hair & makeup artist with a love for pretty things from the past!

I live in New York with my fella & a black Labrador pup named Samantha Depp. I named my shops "Rue 78" after our very first little nest on the other side of town. We love to feather our nest with beautiful vintage finds that bring us joy and comfort.

I started Rue 78 Vintage as a way to share my love of Mid-Century vintage finds for the home. It began with my own search for the vintage Corelle Gold Butterfly teacups & saucers I enjoyed as a young child in the late-1970s. I fondly remember sipping tea before bed with my mom & Nana from the pearly white and gold dainty cups. My search stirred my passion for vintage treasure hunting & collecting.

My love of vintage blossomed into Rue 78 Fashion, my new shop devoted exclusively to vintage clothing and accessories for gorgeous gals & fashionable fellas...to launch June 2012!

Stay tuned to my blog for the scoop on special sales, give-aways, shop news & discounts!

Enjoy! xoxo
