Vintage Inspired Shop

I received the newest issue of Country Living this week and there was a store in the magazine that really caught my eye.  The store is Billy Reid.  This name just seems to roll of your tongue, sounds like a movie star's name, the next big box office hit, Billy Reid staring in his own designs.  There are six Billy Reid boutiques in New York City and throughout the South to include Dallas and Houston.  After drooling over the website I can see why some may think their fashions are going to be a hit, but what I was drawn to more than anything was the use of vintage items.  Now that will always catch my eye.  Take a look:

BILLYREID

Can you see the ironstone plates hanging on the wall.  See I would go in the store just for their displays, kind of like I do with Anthropologie.

So do you think he'll be the next Ralph Lauren or even Tommy Hilfiger.  I'm linking up with Debra for her Vintage Inspiration Friday posts, so be sure and stop over her blog too.  Happy Friday to you all.

    Overall I have been losing interet in Country Living of late. Seems like too many articles and not enough substance and no longer large pictures in their issues. I am hoping they change my mind as time to renew comes closer.
    Your post was a good one as always.

    Clothing is so much better when it's displayed well. The vibe has to be there, to really make the sale. Great store.
