modern america.
i came across this photograph of a vintage book in mclovebuddy’s esty shop, and the color and design excited me and inspired me to gather up some vintage-inspired decor. it’s so very cinematic to me. i did a little daydreaming, mentally leafing through the pages…and ended up in mid-century modern america.
