Sounds like losing ones knickers happened more often than not in the "Golden Era". Just think of all of the panties covering the streets! Hee hee!
Oh, and for those of you making tap pants, I saw a nice pattern on www.evadress.com.
Ha! Those are spectacular!
I think my favorite on is the last one--ruffled PANTS! In front of a train. Well, what else would one wear?
I think that TV show "America's Next Top Model" could do a nice riff off of these ads.
Thanks for sharing Madison!
I'm in utter awe over this one! Someone who is knitting and selling vintage knitwear? All of those tiny needles! I can't imagine how long it must take for this wunderkind to create each item! Oof!
These hats are spectacular! I do adore hats, but I just have such a hard time working them into my wardrobe sometimes.
Do you ladies buy the hat to match a certain dress or do you buy a dress to match a certain hat?

What are the holidays without some good baking going on?
Next week, I head home to Cape Cod for Christmas with the family and I'll start baking the moment I get there.

When I'm in a bit of a funk, and really, who hasn't had those days, I rely on a cup of hot chocolate and a good book.
I'd like to recommend "I Captured The Castle" by Dodie Smith. A completely cozy posie book that is like wrapping yourself up in a nice blanket. And please feel free to add a...
Lady Day, I'm in love with these gorgeous cardis! Are they vintage or did you get them at a place that had more of them? Cuz I am always in need of sassy ones like those!
And that Lane Bryant one is very sweet. I love the flame pattern. I'm awful when matching things up. I always just go for...
Jackpot ladies!
Well, I've found some nice vintage solutions to the winter chills.
Viva la vintage pendleton--who doesn't love plaid in the fall?
And two very nice knit dresses.
I'll post when I find my camera!
I know somewhere there is a good thread about refurbishing older fridges. It might be a better solution than blowing $4,000 on a new vintage style version of it.
I rented an apartment that had the best vintage wedgewood stove around. I wish I had it now!
Such a great point Lady Day! I'm always tired of people telling me that "people were smaller back then"....
But as a woman who has more than a few inches more than 24 around her waist eBay can be something of a frustrating deal. But with perserverence (sp?) you can find some gems on there...
