As much as I love vintage fashion, I am always thrilled when I find a new item in one of my favorite stores with the charm and uniqueness of a vintage piece, minus the wear and tear! The music artists in this week’s playlist are also inspired by years gone by- they all have a retro sound with a modern edge that makes their songs instantly catchy and fun. And this playlist also features some country-tinged tunes for all you country fans out there!
As always, you can listen to the songs on the popup player or click on the links below to download or listen to individual songs on YouTube. Enjoy!

I don’t usually comment on the playlist posts, but I have to say I love this one! You included artists I actually know, because I tend to like more old-school music. I would also recommend Duffy (her album Rockferry is one of my all-time favorites) and The Noisettes. Good picks :)
Carolanne
great post! i was really excited to see Lily Allen, Kate Nash (especially Merry Happy – LOVE that song!), and She & Him included. Great stuff!! =]
Don’t ever stop doing these music posts! I’ve learned of soooo many amazing songs because of these! Lots, of which, have become ‘most played’ on my ipod!! haha =] thanks for these!
Celia
FUN!!! They’re probably one of my favorite groups and everyone should listen to them. That entire album is fantastic!

How is Kate Nash retro sounding? I love her but she doesn’t belong here.
Also, Janelle Monae needs to be on one of these lists PRONTO. Her entire album features songs of ever genre. Surprised she’s been over looked.
She also a huge fashion inspiration.
