Shabby Chic Vintage Home Inspirations


When I first caught glimpse of these shabby chic vintage interiors my heart did flutter. Not only did the house have old bones, but the vintage clothes, the sparkling jewels, and the collection of vintage Wolf dress forms next to that antique armoire... oh goodness, if this isn't shabby chic vintage heaven, I don't know what is.


I dream one day to have a workspace that could be as beautiful as this and as inspiring. I always wanted to live in a home where people felt the urge to poke around and peek at the beautiful things I've curated over the years. I want everything in my home to tell a story, particularly a fairy tale.

Vintage Inspired Places | Home Office

I often wish I had my little own space to do all my work and these lovely vintage inspired home offices have got me a bit green with envy! So inspiring!


I love that mix of modern meets industrial meets vintage. When I say vintage, I usually refer to a more feminine look and not just something that is older. And for industrial, to me it is more masculine. Maybe I can say I like very androgynous rooms?

The Vintage Home | Kitchen Decorating Ideas With Flea Market & Antique Mall Finds

One of the reasons I love going to antique malls so much is to add to my collection of vintage kitchen knick knacks. I particularly love floral plates, porcelain tea cups and saucers, and vintage tea towels.

What are your favorite vintage finds at flea markets?

Je T'aime Beaucoup!

J'adore this print by graphic designer Therese Sennerholt. There are more fantastic prints in her shop. I love the messages in them, so fun!

Vintage Home Inspirations | White Out

I absolutely love homes that are bright, clean, white, and a bit sparse. These homes are beyond gorgeous and I dream someday to live in quarters as lovely!

Vintage Decorating: 10 Vintage Film Posters For Your Apartment

For chic and affordable artwork for your apartment, opt for vintage movie posters. There's something quite fantastic about the art and style of the 1960s, (mostly French films), but you could also go for campy movie posters or cult classics. The larger the poster, the better, they're perfect for open loft living or boxy white rooms.

The Vintage Home | Lauren McGrath's First Apartment in the City

What a fantastic first apartment! Lots of bright white throughout punched up with slate blue, poppy pinks, and sunny yellow. I love that her apartment is traditional (with (an antique table turned into a vanity, the striped love seat that is very reminiscent of a Jane Austen novel...) mixed with a trifle of contemporary touches (the lucite bench at the vanity, the IKEA shelf, the leaf print curtains).

The Vintage Home | Susan + William Brinson's Amazing Loft

The loft owned by art director (She) and commercial photographer (Him) is one of my favorites I've seen in awhile. There are so many ideas I want to incorporate into our own apartment. The trunks at the end of the bed (extra storage!) and that amazing lightbulb chandelier. That's a show stopper if I ever did see one!
