You know when they say that a picture is worth a thousandwords? Well if you think about it is so is your room. It's pretty much where you live, well, if you're a teenager at least. But your room is a way to express yourself with out using pens and paper or the computer. When someone walks into your room they automatically know what type of person you are. They can figure out your personality, your hobbies and your interests all with one glance. For example: the room has bright pink and orange walls, stuffed animals lining the bed, trophies for various cheerleading competitions and a closet full of pink and purple clothing. You will automatically assume that the person is a bubbly pre-teen girl who loves the color pink and loves to cheer. Many people express themselves in more ways than one. But sometimes the furniture says it all. Some people who like vintage looking pieces in dark woods and deep hues are more of hmm.. I guess a boho type. While people who like clean cut straight lines in black and white are probably modern. I'm more of a vintagey person. I love the look of dark wood and the pretty designs and patterns. Some of these vintagey pieces can work for anybody, whether you're a going green girl or you love sports so much that it's pretty much the only thing that you do.
This picture frame is vintage inspired by www.carlagizzi.com. These frames can go into any room whether it's a baby room or a grandmother's room. They are very modern yet sophisticated $18.00

Last but definitely not least, this gorgeous chandelier from www.vintageshopper.com looks very classy in anyone's room. The chandelier is on sale for $59 but is currently out of stock.to warn you if you would like this chandelier to actually light up your room and not to be used as a decoration, be aware that this chandelier can only be used with real candles.
Next time you go shopping try to pick up a vintage looking piece for your room. or go online shopping at the two great links that i have shared with you. urban outfitters sells great vintage pieces as well. they have stores that are open to the public as well as online ordering. It looks great in any place in the house. Even if you are strictly a modern person.
