VPOD: The Time-Traveling Fashionista

What if you tried on a beautiful vintage evening gown or pearl necklace and it took you back in time?

If you’re Bianca Turetsky, you’d have the makings of an international publishing sensation.

Her imaginative series for 8- to -12-year-olds combining time-traveling fantasy and vintage clothing obsession has been translated into nine languages.

Thankfully, the series isn’t over yet.

The latest book is available now and follows our heroine, Louise Lambert, as she travels back to Alexandria, Egypt as well as to the film set of Cleopatra. Past adventures took her on the Titanic and to the palace of Marie Antoinette.

If you love vintage clothing and good reads, as I do, then share these lovely stories with your daughters, granddaughters, and nieces. (And your sons, grandsons and nephews if they’re fashion lovin’ too!)

All the titles are available on Amazon. Just click pics above for links.
