A VINTAGE-LOVER has spent $50,000 transforming her 'fixer-upper' home into a 1950s timewarp. From an early age, Rochelle, 26, from Phoenix, Arizona, has been interested in all things retro. Some of her happiest childhood memories are of trawling the aisles of antique stores with her mother. And as an adult, her love of the past continued to grow. In 2018, she and her husband Matt bought their first home together. The property had been built in 1957, but remodelled in the 1970s. Rochelle then spent the next 18 months - and $50,000 - restoring it to its original glory. Now, every appliance and piece of furniture in her home is vintage - as is her entire wardrobe. She concluded: "I would say I'm obsessed with vintage. It might be a little crazy, but it's fun."

Anyone who thinks you are racist just because you love vintage stuff just doesn’t get it. I’m obsessed with the 1950’s as well and I’m a black man but I’m not blind to what was going on back then and I don’t agree with what was going on back then either it’s about the style and fashion not their values. I want to be friends with this girl.
Lemme scream that you're a racist! Smh so dumb
@TheCottonCandyBreedCreature her wanting to be a housewife is completely fine lmao ig equal rights means women and men can’t choose if they wanna work or stay home
@@brennathecatlover4360 ?? wat do u mean I think they ment segregation that’s when there’s separate whites only school and whites only water fountain black only restaurant etc it lynching black people by white folks still a thing in the 50’s was a very racist time it has nothing to do about men and women equal rights Jim crew law still was very big back then but it was the beginning of civil rights movement ✊
@TheCottonCandyBreedCreature yes very true I thought that would make other people think that she’s racist especially for the people that live in that era because segregation back then was big deal like the Jim crew law
Every time I talk about wanting to “live back in the day” I always add “with the mindset of today” trying to explain its the fast paced tech obsessed world that I’m trying to escape.
My heart is so warm when she says she doesn't believe in vintage's political value... That's what we call not a blind obsession
Except, if it’s still a trigger for minority individuals then…it’s another example of how people make excuses to cater to themselves & justify their own conscience, regardless how it makes others feel. It’s an example of a lot of things on this subject. We’ve got a long way to go.
@@ec9833 we need people to stop playing victim and take accountability for once
I'd hate to play the Devil's Advocate, but it was those very political & social values that enabled the 50s to have that culture and lifestyle that is so revered. A homogeneous population that is rooted in European values is what gave the 50s its feel and a diverse, multicultural population would have eliminated that.
This goes for most of us who enjoy vintage fashion, music, etc!! Vintage style, not vintage values always!
@@ecompixel339 You're exactly right! Unfortunately, it's not ''would have'', it's ''did''! Multicultualism HAS and DID destroy America! I think it's hilarious that some blk folk now wish it were the 1950s again...lol!
I was born in the early 50s and it's a lot to be said about the quality of material goods. You look like you are having fun and have a livelier life than the majority of us. I would never have thought you are doing this because you support every single thing that happened in the 50s.
I dont think this person is understanding the critique, and im not sure you are either. Romanticizing an era solely for its aesthetics is pretty vapid tho so maybe its out of yalls depth lol.
I am like her except I am obsessed with the 1970s!
@Sophie Um did you not watch the video? This girl has a "tiki room". In case you didnt know the USA overthrew the government of Hawaii and stole their land, then proceeded to exotify and commodify their culture with weird racist crap like "tiki rooms". Yes, this girl is racist. This video is a prime example of why you actually cant just ride aesthetics of some era without invariably engaging in some blatantly racist passé. All the aesthetics of the era are racist. Like wheres this girls cigar store Indian statue? Wheres her minstrel statuettes? Mustve missed the video, right?
I bet you 72💀
@@reem-vj8rb what do you mean
"I have enough confidence in myself with what I'm doing that no one can tear me down." I love that so much

I simply can't fathom why people would get offended by her. We should get offended by how sloppy some folks dress. PJs in public for example.
I don't understand how living in a 50's home, makes you a racist. You can live in any home and be a racist. People are haters
How about a late 1930s German home complete with all the most in fash Hugo Boss?
You are confused by her statement. She's saying because the 50s era was very racist.
@@5822huron It's racist in this era, and every other era before now. That is why I said, those who believe that are haters.
@@MegaSlimgoody1 True. I'm not here to argue with you. I'm only talking about the 50s.
@@5822huron We are not arguing lol, I understand what you are trying to convey. I'm saying that if that is the deciding factor, then someone who lives in any house is a racist. It was worse back then but it still exists today.
"Vintage style, not vintage values." Short, sweet, and to the point.I love it so much.
20th century design and mid 20th century values for me please. What's funny is you've never even been to the time period to make any accusations except the few accounts of 2nd hand information you or may have not conjured up. This is a real time in history, not a caricature of stereotypes at full blast. Get a life people, you harm this era when all you do is paint an ugly picture, never to see good in a picture painted with negatives.
That was cool, she's truly unique. I hope she makes a UA-cam channel, her life would be interesting to watch!
I'm not sure if anyone commented this, but there are quite a number of vintage lifestyle UA-camrs out there, all on different spectrums. Some are hardcore like she is, while others are mostly just in for the fashion.
@Poof Ah Diego What they mean is not many people live like this in the modern day, not the 1950s.
There's a lady that does this exact thing with her UA-cam

People always trying to find an angle to tear someone down. Who cares what she likes and why. It’s awesome and so is she
Yes along as she is happy and healthy all is good
She is honestly so adorable! I really like how she dresses how she wants to and doesn't care what people think.
And I think we can all agree on the statement "Vintage fashion, not vintage values".

Why would people care. It was standard clothing in America
Humanity has never had perfect values. Things are still bad today, just flipped.
That makes me so sad that people would say, "Oh, you love the 50s, you're probably racist." People jump to extreme conclusions so much lately! Can't a girl just love the aesthetics of an era?
People are just looking for things to get offended about.
I think she needs to specify, that she loves the 1950s esthetics, and instead of the 1950s Era, it would definitely help people not get confused
Only ignorant people think that way brain washed by a couple movies and there you go.
Those people need to get a damn life.
@@nomanejane5766 Or maybe people should presume that she ISN'T racist, until proven otherwise! 🤷🏻♀🙄😣
Just because you love a certain time in history, doesn't mean you agree with the politics of that time. There is nothing wrong with dressing vintage, or having a vintage style house, if I could dress vintage then I would.
I have an odd fondness for Tudor history. I also have a fondness for architecture with a Tudor flavor. That doesn't mean I believe wives -- even if they are queens -- should be beheaded for alleged adultery!
@@denisenoe1534 Exactly. I love studying a lot about WW2 and I'm more so on studying the German side because I think its pretty interesting, not because of political reasons but just interesting in general.
The whitest thread on youtube.
@@ertavampy4622 I don't really understand what you're talking about, do you mind explaining?
@@theww2girl141 Romaticizing periods of time purely based on aesthetics is something most non-white people cant do. Aesthetics are informed by politics in every period of history. For example, during Reconstruction white supremacists wore red shirts to symbolize their commitment to white supremacy. Could someone romanticize the red shirt late 1800s aesthetics without the inherent racism in that aesthetic choice? No. This is true of all history. White people just dont understand this concept very well cause there isnt much in recent history where they were oppressed. The only real exception is Poles, Jews, Slavs, and Romani perception of white people who romanticize the aesthetics of Nazi era Germany. 50s fashion is representative of 50s politics, period.
I am 32 years old deaf and Puerto Rican - American woman and I love vintage styles. I have always wanted a vintage lifestyle. I would watch Grease just to learn about what outfit goes with what shoes and how to do hairstyles. I'm also trying to see how I can do it with my short natural curly hair. So seeing this video made me smile knowing I'm not the only one who loves vintage fashion.
Im absolutely jealous on how she has all those autographs! She looks amazing
She’s look gorgeous with that 50s vintage fashion
Yes, I have photos of my mom with purple hair too! 😉
I like the innovation of the 50's..I love watching old archive films of houses and gadgets to make life easier..
How lovely keep the garbage of the modern era outside and the slowed down loving quiet calm inside. What a cutie
This is the main thing wrong with what is happening in our culture right now. Appreciation and love for an art form does NOT, mean we are part of anything outside of, appreciation and love for an art form. And no matter what else it might have been at the time, it's still, an art form to be appreciated, loved, and even adored. God bless you and your husband, young woman.
This generation is really sensitive.
I love how confident she is! And I’m also loving the colorful hair. Plus the car I love it😍
I feel her! Kudos to her for boldly sharing her love. She might be reincarnated from living in that era🤭
She’s so very pretty. I love her style and personality. I have always been in love with the way ladies wore their hair back then. I recently got some vintage pieces. This is my favorite fashion era.
She is fantastic! I don't know if I could live in a home without modern decor and the such but she is rocking it!
…. How would her enjoying the 50s STYLE ! Make her racist 🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️ the stuff people say is ridiculous.
I absolutely LOVE her look everything is so pretty and cute ! Like I wish I had the energy 😩
It’s because the 50s was a delightful time for white people and hard for people of color. I personally don’t believe she’s racist, but you have to admit living in the 50s isn’t so cutesy when you’re a person of color having to endure segregation.
@@Blake1720 but she’s ok to like what she wants ! The way people of color were treated in the 50s wasn’t ok but it’s 1000 % ok to find a style cute . Just like some stuff from the 90s are popular again today . And NO I am NOT white so it’s not like I’m trying to act privileged. It’s just ridiculous people can’t like what they want

@@Blake1720 But that's like saying that being alive here and now also makes someone racist! It's just cringey tbh. 🤷🏻♀
I'm in LOVE with her tiki room! The bamboo and the fish tank are all beautiful.
I would consider doing yearly blood tests for lead levels. When my daughter was a baby her levels came back elevated due to me collecting vintage items.
I'm responding to Angela Barnett (though I can't see your comment here for some reason): I completely PURGED my home of anything vintage since this was my baby and lead is very damaging, especially to the development of small children. I got her yearly blood draws until it went back to undetected (it was undetected after the first year but I do them when I fear she has had more contact). We had beautiful walnut mid century furniture everywhere, but I believe the main culprits were the pyrex, the ceramic glazed items, and brass handles on the furniture. I suggest following Tamara Rubin (aka Lead Safe Mama). She has an extensive blog and helpful resources.
Wow. I've learned something new.
@@kenyamorris7065 Ditto.
From a POC, I love your look! I love the MCM look and about 30 years ago I wore vintage clothing from the 60’s. It’s still my favorite look and I love everything from that time. You stay golden, you’re awesome!!!
What an adorable lady and bless her style and wisdom!
Even her mannerisms are 50's inspired. That's major dedication to an art 😘👌
And also, I love how this woman isn’t racist
Do what makes you happy. I live in a 50s house and love mid century decor and architecture. I love your style and passion.
I just love her attire and her beautiful home, especially the Tiki Room. She seems to have really studied 50's interior design; the furniture and decor come together so harmoniously in their home.
This is awesome. I love pure nostalgia and the dedication she has to every detail ❤️❤️❤️
I love the vintage persona too! I really like the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s homes and values. All shiny and glittery, all the charming decor. Those are the best decades to live in.
I have always wanted to live Vintage. Warms my heart to know someone is already doing it :D
even the way she laugh is vintage, so adorable
I love vintage dresses they're so elegant and modest but also great for any era.
I love Vintage but to live it out as my daily existence, that takes courage, money & Passion 2 the XTREME! Love it! ❤
Been in the community for about 18yrs... saying the vintage lifestyle is racist or anything remotely close is absurd. It's a preservation of beautiful material items, maintaining an aesthetic and finding fellow obsessers. It's rediculous people like that who remain uneducated and perpetuate stereotypes. Keep doing you, love.
Uneducated? It triggers individuals of minority populations for innumerable valid reasons. It’s THAT justification & THAT mentality that continues actual ignorance and completely & deliberately glazes over who suffers; so that those who don’t can continue to have everything they desire & soothe their conscience, both as priority #1. It literally perpetuate racism. Come on…way more work to do.
@@ec9833 you are crazy
@@ec9833 It does not ‘trigger’individuals of minority populations, it triggers white liberals like you who seem to love being offended on other peoples behalf.
@@mariapittalis2147 😂😂😂
I love her so much! I’m in the vintage community we well , I have mainly 60s-70s but I sure do appreciate 50s stuff too 😍
I like this! I’m personally obsessed with the 00’s so it’s cool seeing other eras.
Silly to apologize for an era you didn't even live through, yet here we are in the "2020's" and there's still great inequality and unsolved struggles. Will 30-something's in 2090 apologize for living a 2020's lifestyle because of the injustice that occurred during the generation happening right now? Live your life...a lot of great things happened in the 50's. This isn't about race.
I appreciate that she cares enough to speak about it. Racism is real in America.
@@afroatheist-isnowafroantit6154 ...and has been for every decade that this country has existed, including the one you're in now.
@@fastfoodpitstops Exactly. You know.
@@fastfoodpitstops And, she is still a nice person for saying something. You're not.
@@afroatheist-isnowafroantit6154 There you go! Fight hate with more hate...the exact reason this issue is still unsolved. Educate yourself.
I am obsessed with the 90's (I was born in 1975). It was the best decade ever in my opinion.
Not gonna lie though.... Her dress is gorgeous 😻 and her hair is so cute.
Love all the vintage memorabilia you have! You and your clothes are just stunning! Love the car as well. I love vintage clothes and I’m a Black woman. Those two things aren’t mutually exclusive so the fact the fact that you love vintage and people equating it with racism is soo ABSURD🙄. You can like things without liking the societal norms and mores of that era. People are so dumb. Keep doing you girl! You have people out here that appreciate it. If you ever do a UA-cam page I’d be one of the first to subscribe ♥️
I am 12 years old, and ever since I was like, 8 I've always liked stuff from not our generation, I always found it cool and I remember for Christmas last year I went to the antique store to get a bunch of porcelain dolls for Christmas because that's all I wanted! And they were really cool to look at, especially all the other stuff!
I like how she appreciates the look of this era. And, she wants to feel like she is still a part of this time, in a way.
i love vintage if i had the chance to live like in those days i would!
I love the 50s and 60s the way the women were so jazzy and classy with their attire.. ..I also love the way you dress 🥰
this seems like a way for her to connect with her mom and childhood and I think thats really sweet. It must feel like home to her.
My wardrobe is mostly vintage too. The main thing I struggle with is finding shoes but there’s a vintage clothes market near where I live that just makes it so easy. I’m now friends with a few of the stall holders and they always message me if they get something in they think I’ll like and put it aside for me.
Anyone who says people who like vintage are racists are discrediting all the people who fought for political change during that time. Bernie Sanders grew up in the 50s, not a racist. Martin Luther King Jr. was alive and active in the 50s. Betty White was a young woman in her 30s during the 50s, and she was known as a defender of diversity and inclusion. There have always been people fighting for what's right, in every era imaginable. Don't forget them.
Love her positive energy. I hope she enjoys her life in style.
I am obsessed with her 1950’s life. So aesthetically pleasing!
"Vintage Style not Vintage Values"
Love, love, love that response.
I (sarcastically) like the “oh, you love the ‘50s, therefore you’re racist” remark. I’d love to hear the mental gymnastics of a thought process someone with that opinion would have to do in their head to come to that conclusion. There have been racist people throughout history all the way up to and, sadly, including today. With that logic, anyone who’s a “fan” of any period of time is racist. You like living in modern times with modern amenities? You’re racist.
It's the same kind of logic of "You like Harry Potter? You're going to see the new Fantastic Beasts? Therefore you support JK and are also a transphobe". People are just looking to start a fight.
I'm so numb to the "you're racist" nonsense. It's actually not helping but hindering their whole "movement" everything is racist now so therefore nothing is racist and I don't care anymore.
I think this is SO cool because it's just SO unique and it takes true passion and dedication to live this lifestyle because it's "old." I also love vintage particularly the late 60's, 70's and early 80's but primarily as it relates to fashion. Nevertheless, I think it's unfortunate that there are people who make that assumption of her political views based on the lifestyle era she lives in. There happens to be a UA-camr by the name of Sewrena, who also lives the vintage lifestyle from house to home through and through for 1950s into the 60's. She sews her own vintage inspired clothing too. She is a Black woman. And there was a comment made asking if "she realise how life was for black people in that time period..." as though blacks didn't enjoy or continue to live comfortably in their own communities or as though she should abandon her personal taste, style, and lifestyle preference because of the portrayal of her "accepting" the mass view on politics and values of that era. Live and let live is what I think people should consider. What's for someone else doesn't have to be for you and what's for you doesn't have to be for the next person. I don't understand how or why people make some things much bigger than it is.
The picture in front of the car doing an arabesque with pointe shoes is so beautiful
Vintage lifestyle is sooo original. ❤
She is adorable and I love how she is not like everyone else you see these days
This is the coolest hooked on the look episode. I love everything about this!
She's so unique it's so nice to keep going and cherish different years of life. Her purple her looks so beautiful on her own. Thank you stay true you and unique ❤️❤️
I love her hairstyle. She looks amazing and her car is so nice. I always said to my mom I want my first car to be vintage too because old cars just look so well crafted.
Its really nice to see these kind of content. And about her love in 50's style is kinda cute and unique.
My moms house after 13 years living next to a goodwill. Not being funny. Lol the tiki room was spot on lmao
I feel like this about the 90s...
I love her obsession.
I love everything about her and her home!❤❤❤
This is actually really cool
Wow, I love her style. Also the tiki room reminds me of Graceland, Elvis' living room was jungle themed with leopard and tiger prints on the rugs couches and floors.
This has been my life in this community/sub culture since the late 80's when in my mid teens. Completely normal to me. Most people do not understand you do not have to be a total luddite living every true element of an era to be into it. My husband and I love the aesthetics. 'Authentic' decor in home (with emphasis on things such as appliances complying to modern health, safety and compliance code. We have a modern 2 person infrared sauna and I love it), clothes, music, popular culture, cars etc. We have also been influenced by the times we have grown up and lived through. It's all fun and it's what makes you feel joy in living a certain way. The beauty is, we can pick and choose and leave the ugly side of the era out of our life. Live and let live and reserve what you think is your right to judge just because you don't get it and you think we don't fit in mainstream society how you think we should. Save us all from the conformists out there! And FYI, the global community of '50's lifestylers' is actually pretty substantial and diverse.
This comment is everything!! 💓🙌🏻
Dresses back in 50s were so beautiful n elegant
This is beautiful ❤️. Atleast she's not obsessed with plastic surgery and unhealthy body dysmorphia like so many others are these days.
Absolutely love the true Rockabilly look and lifestyle. I was once a pin up model. I always have a hard time finding clothes that fit.
I believe she live a great deal of people would be happy live this lifestyle. No one should hassle her for it.
@@carollynt bragging?
After the last two years, I'd like to go back in time too.
I love the brass armadillo. Well the one out near Kansas City, They always have something cool there. Huge place. Nice people too. I love that she loves what she does. That's all that really truly matters. Go on "flip your lid" girly. 😊
I absolutely love this video💕 I totally adore everything that I saw💕 Can't wait to see more💕🥰
"Vintage Styles, not vintage values."
Is purple hair vintage 50’s style??
@@missmew5240 It's a bit of an unknown fact but, yes, there was a trend of having unnatural hair color some time in the 50's. It wasn't very common, and usually it was on shorter hair styles and it was more common to dye part of the hair than to have it all colored. I've seen mint and lavender colors the most.
But I think the woman in the video has a more modern looking dye job.
@@itsalwayshalloweenexceptwh5118 oh yeah that does sound familiar now that I think about it. I love purple hair though…and red, blue and green 💜❤️💙💚
Her and her husband are made for each other ❤️
I the 1950 vintage looks and the furniture as well.
Plus the Knick knacks!!
Wait 9k for that car?? In working condition? No improvements or anything? Cuz damn!
Love it!! Girl after my own heart!! 💖
I’m also most drawn to the 50’s. I agree - vintage style not values. I want everything! The house and the car! This is what I aspire to be and she sounds awesome! Family influence is a powerful thing. My obsession with antiquing started when I was little too when my grandma would take me to estate sales. I also had a lot of influence as my father watched old movies on TCM and played the oldies music station as well as his love for vintage cars.
I love that she doesn't care what others think and is her own person.
She looks so gorgeous! The 50’s had great style and minus the pungent racism the clothing and architecture was truly beautiful 💜💜
Yes my exact feelings too ❤️😅 I think the style looks good on her.
Wow so cool ❤ I like your style ❤I love it all.
I love vintage stuff, my home is decorated vintage/modern. I love the music and the stile from that era❤
I love vintage too. That store looks incredible
We'll I love the 70s and 80s!!!
I always said I was born in the wrong Era. I'm so into the 50s-70s. I have a 1960 apache 10, 1969 Chevy Nova and looking for a 1970 chevelle SS. I absolutely love her home and overall look!!!
She lives in the same city as me and I’ve seen her at a few vintage markets before. Her style is amazing and her and her hubby are so cute! They have a cute little bunny that they bring with them around town too.
I dress as if it's 1956....every day.
I love it!
We can all agree that they never disappoint us with their content 💖💖💖
I am like her except I am obsessed with the 1970s!
I love the small addition of a modern aesthetic with her purple hair.
I live down the street from Armadillo over off the I17 and Cactus in Phoenix Arizona spent 2 hours there love it
I love it! Do your thing girl!😍
Again, I always wonder what these young folks do for a living. To have already accumulated a bunch of expensive objects (clothing, make up, interiors, cameras etc) by their early 20s really intrigues me. And not this lady in particular, but so many in these hipster profile videos live alone or are straight out of art school etc. WOW! Nice for some.
I think this is one of my favoritest hooked on the look. Her giggles are soo cute too!🥰
This is awesome For me it’s the 70’s And the outlaw country music movement And the style
I love that car!
I feel her 50’s was probably the best era I wish I could’ve lived that too
Such a Kool Kitten 🐾 Rad ride! Probably seen you two at Viva LasVegas Rockabilly Weekender 😮
Ooohh.. I love Vintage.. 😍
