Vintage

It is easily overlooked that what is now called vintage was once brand new.

I have discovered that what many people market as "vintage," "shabby chic," and "retro" is really just old junk.  I don't think my mom minds me calling her "vintage" or "retro," but she gets so upset when I call her "shabby chic" or "old junk" or just "shabby."
