One of the tasks that goes along with writing a blog is reading many, and I mean many, other blogs. I like to stay up on the trends each season, and I always try to spot any vintage or retro reference for future posts. Sometimes, though, the list gets unwieldy and I know it’s time for another retro round-up of all the nostalgic news on the web this week. Enjoy!
