I'm a magazine addict and there is nothing I like better than to browse through vintage magazines on
Paper Pursuits. The site has tons of images from fashion magazines like
Vogue and
Harper's Bazaar (I especially love the issues from the 1950s), interior design magazines (be sure to check out
House Beautiful and
House & Garden), old advertisements, and even sewing patterns. These publications are a wonderful source of interesting colorways, graphics and period details. Many of the fashion magazines also produced special bridal issues that have gorgeous photos of gowns, veils and bouquets - who knows, maybe it will inspire you to add a vintage touch to your own ensemble!


All the images of vintage Vogue magazines are from Paper Pursuits. From top left: February 1956; March 1956; February 1956 (interior); July 1956; March 15, 1956; July 1956 (interior); October 15 1955, November 15 1955, October 1955 (interior).
