They really are some of the coolest, most fashionable people on the planet and I was giddy as a schoolgirl when they offered to be interviewed. :)<br /><br />Hard as it to believe that almost a month has passed since Laurecen's interview, that it has, and the next entry in this series should be coming down the pipeline later this very week if all goes to plan. :)<br /><br />Big hugs & happy Tuesday wishes,<br />♥ JessicaWitchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-50881580100248109642015-08-18T10:46:21.627-07:002015-08-18T10:46:21.627-07:00Great interview, I enjoyed finding out more about ...Great interview, I enjoyed finding out more about them both.

You can tell that a passion for vintage is interwoven into their souls and that they're absolutely at home in their mid-century filled world and when wearing vintage in public.

I have followed L&S for years and adore them, they are the cutest couple and the most stylish vintage loving people I've ever known. What I really love about them is that they are so genuine. They always look like they are taken out of the fifties, no over done pinup/rockabilly style for them. Wishing you a lovely day, dear. :)SANNEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12973437247117000140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-666358451268674272015-08-04T05:59:26.488-07:002015-08-04T05:59:26.488-07:00Yippee!

I lost the link to their blog a while ago but I'm so thankful for this post because now I've found it again :D They have such style and though I don't see myself going quite into the vintage as they are (as in house, car, etc.) they are very inspiring and I loved to read this interview :) Excellent :)<br />~TheresaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12798196856128466766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-24813360377779108072015-08-02T21:31:14.026-07:002015-08-02T21:31:14.026-07:00Thank you very much, sweet Tanith.

I really like the fact that they usually share such a wealth of photos in each outfit post. I know that doing so isn't everyone's cup of tea, but I adore it - especially since it often helps us to get a 360 degree view of their amazing ensembles.<br /><br />I don't think that's weird at all (I like finding that out about folks I know online, too). That is such a good point and one that I've noticed before, too. It's awesome how many vintage lovers are into STEM related careers. I went through a period as a child when I wanted to be a scientist (either a marine biologist or an astronomer) myself and though life didn't end up going down that career path for me, I've always maintained a massive love for science and related fields, reading many books (and online articles, etc) pertaining to such each year. <br /><br />Thank you very much for your terrific comment. Have a beautiful first week of August!<br />♥ JessicaWitchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-29423271365408051342015-08-02T03:55:58.950-07:002015-08-02T03:55:58.950-07:00Another fab interview!

I loved reading more of their story here. And maybe this is weird (and I am aware that I have a bit of an obsession with career paths) but I loved finding out what they do for a living! It seems like there are a lot of vintage-loving women in engineering and science, but maybe I'm imagining that just because I notice them the most!

I don't know of a more stylish couple anywhere in the world and was so thrilled when Laurence answered my call for interviewees earlier this year.

We're both well, though very busy with work (as per usual) and delighted by the fact that there's now less time left until he gets home than when he embarked for the States (there's about five more weeks to go until he gets home). The pets are well, too, as is my family, I"m very happy to report. How is everything on your end as we rush headfirst in the eighth month of the year?<br /><br />Your wish is my command regarding more interviews. When I put out my initial call for participants, even at the speedy rate of one post roughly every three to four weeks, I booked slots up clear to mid-2016, so I won't be running out of interviewees anytime soon (which is great!).<br /><br />Many thanks again & have a stellar weekend!<br />♥ Jessica<br />Witchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-34394944454675311512015-07-31T09:54:53.682-07:002015-07-31T09:54:53.682-07:00We can - and should - gush and squeal and thorough...We can - and should - gush and squeal and thoroughly delight in the amazingness that is Laurence and Sylvain.

...Hip-hip.. three times "cheer" for them!<br />I have been following their outings and going-ons for quite some time, and they are such an inspiration. The blog they run features some amazing photos, and they are so proud of their vintage flee market finds (here's the thing; once you see the pride they have with having found an item on the market, you get the boost of energy and a push of enthusiasm for doing so yourself).<br />Mind me saying: they are (and deserve to be) so house proud.. have you seen what energy have they put in finding that "fashionable" TV set, an original.. I call that a true vintage calling.<br /><br />..<br />As for you, my dear:<br />How are you?<br />How's Tony doing?

LIKE TOTALLY. <br />I love these people. I'm probably their newest biggest fan. The answers to these questions are spot on, especially the one about loving history making us more aware of the present. That really jumped out at me.

I try to space them out about 3 to 5 weeks apart, to ensure each person (or couple, in this case) has the spotlight rightfully shone on them in the moment, and it always boggles my mind how quickly time flies between each new entry in this fun ongoing series. <br /><br />It would be a joy and an honour to interview you one day, my friend. Please feel free to email or FM PM me anytime if you'd like to discuss a possible post month for such.

There are countless elements of the past that I embrace and enjoy weaving into my daily life, but I try never to look at it with rose coloured glasses and there are lots of things that would have been a substantial problem for me back in the day - very much including even getting diagnoses or help with some of my chronic illnesses (let alone having the broad range of foods available now to safely eat for/around those that involve a special diet).
