Vintage 60s Home Life

Some really groovy items from the 1960s-1970s

Laurie Partridge

About a year ago the local video shop was shutting down and all dvd's were $5 each, so i decided to have a look around and see what i could buy, and I came across "The Partridge Family" dvd. the cover looked really groovy so I decided to buy it, after watching it i had to buy the rest of the seasons, I absolutely loved that show, it was so groovy and their songs were amazing! David Cassidy was just the cutest too! Not to mention Laurie Partridge's fashion was SO groovy! She had a very similar style to Marica Brady. Susan Dey immediately became my fashion role model, her style was absolutely amazing, I loved every outfit she wore. and she's so pretty too!

Susan Dey is an amazing actress and will always be one of my favourites from the 70's!

Such an amazing role model and inspiration!

You Rock, Sue!

Going to my favourite place ever … THE VINTAGE MARKET

Hi guys!! Im back!! I have a few posts planned out for the next couple of months so I'm excited to show you guys those. this ones kind of a #tbt (even tho its not thursday) but i forgot to upload these photos, so here they are.. somewhat 6 months later..  OOPS!!

So every few months my mum and I like to go down to the vintage market, its quiet a drive from where I live, but its totally worth it! this vintage market is packed full of awesome finds, although its really really expensive, its still nice to go look at, and the people are just lovely there.

So this is it, the big shed market.. absolutely full of awesome things. I always leave with something because this market is huge, and theres always new stuff to find. and the great thing about this Awesome vintage market is that its open ALL YEAR ROUND!!

this picture is only showing one side of the market.. i told you it was big!

Oh look what I can see.. a grease record.. I may or may not have bought that!

Talk about a lot of books, oh wow!

I really really do enjoy going here because it makes me so happy, so much nice and friendly people there & such amazing vintage finds.

I didn't take as much photos as I would've liked, but i will most defiantly be doing future posts on this amazing vintage market.

So in the mean time, stay groovy my friends!

Where have I been?

Wow. It's been a few months since I've last posted on here and honestly, I don't really have an excuse for why I haven't posted. I just haven't had any inspiration lately. But I'm back and HOPEFULLY I'll stop to post a lot more.

Over the past few months of not posting anything I have got up to a lot of things such as changing and redecorating my room, making a hangout room for me and my friends, going record shopping and finding so much cool records, and going on a holiday with my family. It's been such fun these past few months but now that I'm back, I'm looking forward to posting more things. And I'm also thinking about making my own youtube page too, so you guys will see more of what I do and love. My next post will hopefully be sometime in the next week, so stay tuned for that.. And in the mean time.. Stay groovy!

Friday the 13th - day of horror movies

It's Friday the 13th and we all know what that means, time to watch some scary movies!! My favourite are the 80s horror/slasher movies, one of my favourites is nightmare on elm street, the original one is my favorite by far, and too make it 10 times better I was lucky enough to get a signed autograph from Heather Langerkamp aka Nancy! 

I love all 80s horror flicks, from the cute "gremlins" to the scary "Excosist" there's so many 80s movies that go un loved, like silver bullet, witch board and so many more. Nightmare on elm street was the biggest 80s horror movie and was loved by so many people. Hence why they made more of them! Another favorite of mine is "Poltergeist" which stars the cute little Heather O'Rourke!

                                 

Horror movies always has a suspense that's so exciting, you never know when something's going to jump out and scare you and that's the funiest part about watching scary movies, the thrill of being... Scared!

Kids Incorporated - the 80's

Not long ago I was searching 80's videos on youtube when I came across Kid's Inc, Not sure what it was I clicked on one their videos and I instantly fell in love.
Kids Incorporated was a show which first aired on September the 1st, 1983. It was a show which had large musical performances in each episode.

The Members were: Stacy Ferguson, Renee Sands, Martika, Eric Balfour, Mario Lopez,

Ryan Parker, Moosie Drier and more.

I personally LOVE the musical performance more than the episodes and storys, I think the clothing,

the hair, the dance moves & the music they sing just screams 80's! I really love Stacy Ferguson performances the most, she was so pretty and so cool! Even if it's a slow song or a fast song she always does an amazing job!

A very similar tv show was made in Australia called "Young talent time" and I'll be making a blog

post about that show some time soon.

But in the mean time, go check out some of the performances by Kids Inc, and step back

to the 80's!

The Freedom - Drivers License

(*Sigh of Relief*) the thrill of passing your driving lesson was the biggest thing to happen to any teenagers during the 80s (or at anytime) knowing that you know longer need your mom or dad to drive you around places and you can now, Drive by yourself is such a big thing.

Getting your firs car, so much excitment!

The best Part about getting your License is being able to go where you want, where you want. And with your friends along with you, it makes the time awhole lot better. I was so excited to get my License, I failed the first time, but got 100% the second (how's that?) and I was so happy!

Joy with her first car!

Enjoy some of these 80's teens with their first cars!

I wonder who's this car belongs too?

Off to prom?

HI!

I can drive now, WOOHOO!

Nothing is more exciting then getting your first car, it's such a great feeling, a feeling of freedom!

The Freedom of Driving for the first time!
