Hello and happy MODERN VINTAGE MONDAY,<\/strong> everyone!<\/p>\n

It was an insanely gorgeous weekend in NYC this weekend … proven with visual evidence thanks to this photo<\/a> I snapped running in Central Park yesterday. Beautiful!<\/p>\n

The sky in the picture above is just as if not more beautiful — as are the rest of the shots featured in today’s modern vintage post!<\/p>\n

If you’re reading this post sometime between 7:30AM and 11AM today, at this very moment I am actually shooting NEW pictures for future modern vintage posts. I’m in Central Park near the south end \/ Time Warner Center — there are a ton of lovely bridges, grassy hills and scenic views of city-meets-nature! Central Park pictures will kick off next week’s modern vintage post.<\/p>\n

I love sharing how I style vintage looks with you in a fresh, contemporary way — along with sharing the odds and ends of my daily fashion inspiration on Facebook<\/a> and Twitter. <\/a><\/p>\n

But enough about me. How are YOU? I hope you had the chance to visit one of your favorite flea markets<\/a> or vintage stores this weekend. Or maybe you just went thrifting at your local spot. Whatever you did, I’d love to hear it. Because honestly, what you do as a vintage lover is what inspires me as one, too.<\/p>\n

Today’s shots feature the most fabulously floral and fun maxi dress gifted to me thanks to The Vintage Mistress on Etsy.<\/a> Please check her out! Her shop represents what I love most about vintage fashion: pieces curated with love and care so that they can find happy homes with you!<\/p>\n

Keep reading after the jump to see more pictures of me, my maxi dress<\/a> and that big ‘ole New York City bridge (we seriously have a lot!).<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This week is a fun one at Sammy Davis Vintage! Thanks to the stylish tastes of some new YouTube friends, NiaSays<\/a>, BritPopPrincess<\/a> & ThePerisanBabe<\/a>, I’ve fallen back in love with everything that is LONDON.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Check back later this week for some seriously MODERN fashion influences thanks to our sister country also known as the great United Kingdom … plus, a new video coming up in a few days featuring vintage store A Little Wicked!<\/a><\/p>\n

Please say hi and ask any questions on Tumblr<\/a>, Twitter<\/a>, Facebook<\/a>, YouTube<\/a> & email Sammy@Sammydvintage.com.<\/a> Share your vintage fashion finds on the fanpage — I LOVE celebrating great style!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
