The beloved Antiques + Modernism annual event returns to the Winnetka Community House from November 3 through November 5. Ranging in styles from classic to modern, the show features exquisite home furnishings and accessories, artwork, clothing, jewelry, and more. In addition to the show itself, which features the country’s finest dealers of antiques and modern pieces, there is also an exciting Preview Party the night before Antiques + Modernism opens to the general public. Presented by The Woman’s Board, proceeds from the show benefit the Winnetka Community House, a local 501(c)3 organization that provides educational, cultural, social, and recreational opportunities for people of all ages. This year’s event highlights Kameo Vintage’s MELISSA CARTER, who has long been inspired by the evolution of fashion and by styles from both the past and present. Kameo Vintage originated with a love of story-selling and takes a modern-luxury approach to sourcing, where each piece has been professionally cleaned and mended. Besides choosing unique pieces to make her clients shine at any event, Carter also hosts fashion events and speaking engagements where she educates about the power of sustainability and celebrates the beauty of circular fashion. Here is how this curator of vintage classics stays current.

ON HER NIGHTSTAND

“Project 369 – The Key to the Universe: Evolved Consciousness by David Kasneci and Business Plans for Dummies by Paul Tiffany and Steven D. Peterson. I am reading Project 369 because I truly believe in the power of manifestation. I am trying to develop my consciousness and transform my way of thinking. Business Plans for Dummies is on my list because I actually never started with a business plan and as I grow, I need a more guided journey.”

IN HER EARBUDS

“I am listening to a lot of music on Sonos right now because I am constantly in my space. My go-to station is Chill Lofi Beats. This music is perfect for focusing.”

ON HER MOBILE

“I am following fashion trends, grant opportunities, and all things vintage. I love @parron.allen @pharrell, @flawlessmagazine, and @ronniefieg.”
