Victoria Magazine 1990
Rose Vine Covered English Cottage
I was chatting with a fellow blogger
Michella Marie
today about the Victoria magazine of the late 1980s and 1990s. If you haven't visited Michella, you owe it to yourself to take a look at her beautiful style. I'm sure we'll see lots more great things from her. Victoria folded in 2004 and was then republished beginning in 2007. I had no idea it was back on the stands! Shows you how often I go magazine shopping.
Remember all of the dreamy whites?
the lace and hydrangeas?
the architectural salvage
who could forget all the lace?
and silk and satin?
of course the roses...
the lavender
the silver
the ephemera
the wicker
Victorian influenced jewelery
never too much white!

I subscribed to this magazine for several years (20 years ago!) and waited each month
for the latest issue to devour. Maybe I'll have to go pick up a new issue!

Thank you so much for visiting me! I hope you will come back again!
ReplyDeleteI love all of the photos! You should definitely go get a new copy...if you loved it then, I'm sure you will love it now. Such a beautiful style.
PS. I am a new follower, I hope you will follow me too.
Oh, that is so true about New Zealand men. I think the adorable accent helps too!! Have you been there?
ReplyDeleteI didn't marry mine, but I sure had a lot of fun while we were together!!
How I wished I would have saved my old issues. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind comments and support.
May only lovely things be awaiting when you open your door.
I remember when the magazine first came out. I loved it then and love it now. Some styles prevail for ever.
ReplyDeleteNewbie to your blog and loving it. FYI, the then Editor of Victoria Magazine, Nancy Lindemeyer, has her own blog called: Nancy Linedmeyer's Journal: My Year Of Taking Tea. She sometimes reflects back on the good ole' Victoria days - she's a lovely lady. I fortunately saved a lot of old back issues and when antiquing I sometimes find them for 50 cents each - I read and re-read them. I'm not too impressed with the Hoffman Publishing of the revised Victoria magazine - can't put my finger on it, but something is missing in their efforts. Judy B. Texas

ReplyDeleteHello there! thanks so much for linking with the Victoria Blog Party! I so look forward to reading and seeing the lovely posts. It interests me how Victoria brought delight and joy to lady's lives. You covered so many things that made Victoria dear to our hearts. Victoria, I think, was in the forefront of defining beautiful, timeless style.
ReplyDeleteGod Bless,

Thanks for sharing it; I enjoyed this.
ReplyDeleteVictoria & editor, Nancy, had the knack for making even the advertisements look as if they were articles blended into the captivating style of this truly beautiful magazine.
