Vintage Buyer's Home

Free People -a Boho, Gypsy, Vintage style clothing site has posted images of their Vintage Buyer's Home.

~With her incredible eye for vintage and her fascination with the trade, throughout her life she has carefully curated a vintage collection that’s museum-worthy. We took a look inside her home, “my ship…” she calls it, to find out more about Ali’s vintage life, and it’s evident that this trade isn’t just Ali’s career and passion, but it’s her whole heart.~

Eclectic Loft

Eclectic Loft in an 1890s Industrial Building in Brooklyn, NY
 
~Designer and artist Alina Preciado has a knack for finding beauty and possibility wherever she goes. She spends much of her time traveling to places like India, Spain, Japan and the Middle East, importing handmade goods for her business, Dar Gitane. "'Dar' is Arabic for 'home,' and 'gitane' is French for 'gypsy,' which is basically me in a nutshell," she says.

Preciado's eclectic loft in an 1890s industrial building in Brooklyn, New York, subscribes to a similar worldly, collected style that mixes old and new. "This used to be a woodshop, and it had huge machines which made divots and scratches along the floors, so it’s great to be able to see the history," Preciado says.~

Designer's Little Cozy Cottage

Anna Corinna of Foley and Corinna has filled her home with eclectic vintage finds.
 
"I built my house out of things I find and love with no scheme in mind, but I trust my sense of what is beautiful. I have the same sense and trust it in designing ready-to-wear, handbags, and in decorating my house. I come from a unique background — no fashion training, no business training. I go with what I feel. If there is an influence in my Foley+Corinna collections and my home, it's the influence of trusting what I find beautiful and striking."
