Well the seller got back to me after I sent her Lily Powers helpful link and she confirmed that it's faux. Well perhaps it is - there is always a possibility that it always had a faux collar or a faux one was added at a later date - I have seen some of those same cardigans for sale without the...
Thanks again everyone for your thoughts and suggestions - much appreciated!
BunnyB.Gal - thank you for the pattern - I'm not the greatest when it comes to sewing (buttons and putting up hems would be my main talents!) - but you never know - it could be something I attempt down the line...
Thanks for checking into that for me Wahine - I had a feeling that decent looking faux fur may not have been around till much much later.
So many lovely vintage coats have fur trim on them - and I love the look of them (only looking at photos at the weekend of my Gran in her fur coat - she...
Thank you everyone!
Wahine - it's an online purchase so unfortunately I can't see for myself.
Binkie - I do wear leather but I'm not vegetarian so I have no problem wearing a by-product - in fact I would have no issue wearing the by-product of something I would eat - but I can't see...
Hello Ladies,
I was wondering if you might be able to help me - I've been on the lookout for a 50's cardigan with a faux fur collar for ages and I found this - I know this style cardi usually has a real fur collar - the seller says it's faux - does anyone know if this kind of cardi was ever...
Wahine - thank you - that's one of my favourite pics of Grace!
I have to agree with you on Queen Latifah - I haven't seen too many of her movies but I just love her attitude.
My favourite other Audrey - the beautiful Ms. Tautou:
The gorgeous Juiette Binoche (I thought she was...
Thank you very much for that - I will now add them to my Amazon wishlist!
My husband took me to Kildare Village and treated me to some lovely (although not vintage) items:
These LK Bennett shoes I was after for ages:
And this lovely water repellent DKNY trench coat:
And two...
Io Sono L'Amore (I am Love) - gorgeous movie which I really enjoyed (bar the usual unnecessary explicit sex scene which strangely had a touch of Gardener's World about it) - thought this movie would be a tad too arty but not so - it was beautifully done.
Kate O Potato - thank you - I was on the lookout for one for ages but they tend to go for bonkers money here (I'm talking about a couple of thousand Euros for a French one in perfect condition) - I was so sure we wouldn't get it. Your new flat sounds heavenly - I would love, love, love to live...
Thank you LinaSofia - yes we're definitely going to have to host some soirees now!
Do you know I didn't even notice the little donkeys until this minute?! They are donkeys....aren't they?........
LinaSofia - so sorry to hear about the purse - I would be livid too - but lovely Magli shoes - you're bound to get loads of wear out of them.
I got this lucite brooch and earring set - love the little pink roses:
I posted this over in the Display Case - we won this Art Deco drinks...
