The beloved bright ceramics of Fiesta inspire us this week.
The Homer Laughlin China Company of Newell, West Virginia introduced Fiestaware in 1936, and within the first few years of production six colors were made, Red (orange red), Blue (cobalt), Green (jade-like), Yellow (deep golden), Old Ivory (yellowish cream) and Turquoise. The colors are great on your table…and they make a great summer palate for vintage fashions!
Patio Dress Turquoise with White & Gold available at The Vintage Merchant
Vintage 70's Red Leather Trench Coat from Special Somethings
Vintage Shiny YELLOW Oscar de la Renta Boutique Space Age Party Dress available at PinkyAGoGo
