Frame-able Fame

I love the look of framed vintage photographs, and these have all kinds of style that would make any room ooze cool.

Which would you put up on a wall? I think they’d look great as a grouping, salon-style. But give me any of these (or many of these if you’re really generous and really like me), and I’d be quite content!

    I love the one of Debbie Harry – I think it is simple and clean and I have always loved Blondie. Where would you do this grouping in your house?

      I keep getting drawn to the Debbie Harry one, for sure! Also the ABBA one for some reason – maybe it’s just that feeling of livin’ it up in NYC.

      I was thinking of framing two vertical ones for either side of our mirror in the dining room, because it will be a while before we get sconces and it’s really bugging me that it’s so empty. The Mick Jagger one is kinda sweet, actually.

    Ooh, then maybe you should do two of couples. Mick and Bianca on one side and Robert and Ali on the other. Very cool.

  3. I love Ali and Robert! My room in college was covered in framed celeb photographs. I still have my favorite of Bridget Bardot.

      Of course YOU did! I was def. not that stylish in college. We were listening to Nirvana and wearing plaid shirts. Horrid!

    ABBA – definitely ABBA!
