Oddly enough I live not-too-far from an Airstream dealership. I often drive by their lot, daydreaming of what it might be like to take it back retro-style and travel across the good ol’ US-of-A in one of their iconic silver campers wearing a polka-dotted full-skirted dress akin to 1950s House of Dior
