Gift Guide for the Travel and Vintage Enthusiast

Come fly with me, let’s fly, lets fly away…” (Go ahead, cue it up in Spotify if you’d like!)

Ah, the golden age of travel—what glamour! What luxury! I would give anything to board a Pan Am “Clipper” jet, complete with its elaborate dining service and generous legroom.

I know, I know—it’s so easy to romanticize the past (thanks, Hollywood!). Still, I’m aware I’m not alone in this tendency or in my fondness for vintage style.

I’m grateful for modern conveniences and the accessibility of global travel today. I recognize that many aspects of traveling in the past, especially as a woman, would likely be less glamorous or appealing. Still, I can't help but long for the sophistication and respect that travel once embodied.

This gift guide is a celebration of the vintage aesthetic. If you or someone you love has a fondness for noir fonts, classic patterns, or an accessory that adds a little pop and polish to your traveling attire, I think you’ll enjoy the below collection.
