Can't believe you Lauren, how can you manage to get these things so cheap! Everything I like goes for waaay over 20$!!! I can only post stuff in "the ones that got away", but recently I got absolutely broken hearted over something and I can even bring myself to post it.:cry:

I know! Can you believe it? $20 too, because I have gotten to know the owner of the store so well.

I finally found a pair of plastic frames from the 40s...they might be from the 50s, not sure.....thoughts?
I can't wear metal due to allergies, so I am stoked to have found these....for 20 bucks! (Plus they are red and sparkly).

I fell in love with this hat in Etsy and I could not resist!

It is like some sort of combination between a vintage cloche and a fairy hat

I don't think this colour is flattering on me at all, but I still love it and I'll try to make it work. The seller thinks this is circa 50's, I am not sure, what do you all think?

I hope it gets here soon!

I went crazy and snatched these up! I haven't gone on a pattern buying spree ever before. It was fun but a bit hard on my college student budget. I won't be repeating my spree for a while. But oh, they are so delicious!! I can't wait to sew them up!

(This is a 1950's Butterick pattern. The picture isn't wide enough to show that.)

This should be nice for the office:

I adore this suit on you! I you look so Audrey in it!

Thanks so much - can't wait to try it on!

Spring dress fabric!

Yummy vintage rayon - 4 yards for about $35 with the shipping and all.

You can't get this kind of rayon in stores anymore. Love anything with pink and green on black!

Looks beautiful love the color, and I think it's 30s! Hard to tell when it's not on a head.

Miss 1929,

Your rayon fabric is just so pretty.


Just won this.

 

[Lauren]

WOW!!! That hat is to die for!!
Mojito and ExquisiteBones, thanks much! I'm excited for it to get here
I just got the one in the mail with the wide belt and it's fab! Needs some work here and there, but nothing major. Not bad for so dang cheap. And I just got the most LOVELY hat in the mail from deco darling. It's obvious she's got excellent taste in hats, as shown above.

I just got this (SUPER CHEAP! YAY!)

And this one, too.

After being out of work for two weeks, it's obvious I'm glad to be getting a paycheck again :eusa_doh: Gotta stop trolling ebay.

 

[exquisitebones]

Lauren, I can see someday we are going to end up in a bidding war. you buy all the things I am watching lol.

What an AMAZING hat. That dealer always has such good ones! I usually download her pictures for reference and hopefully to copy someday.
