    Gable vs. Bogart

    Vintage style slip

    Ok so I am looking for vintage style satin or silk slips. I do not want vintage ones because I am to tall for most authentic vintage stuff. Any way I have been looking around and can't seem to find any good ones. If you know of anywhere I can find one please let me know.

    Vintage Kimonos

    OMG I love them all. I think your favorite might also be mine but I'm not sure they are all so beautiful. I looked into buying on when I was in Japan the last two weeks, but they were so expensive, and I coudln't figure out where I would ever wear one. But then are all so lovely.
