I got a total score yesterday at the local charity shop -

Two boxed pairs of seamed stockings for £1! I thought from the box they would be seamless nylons, but when I peeked inside, they were not only seamed but also silk!!! At another shop I got the unembroidered cloth (folded in half in the pic below) which I will do in 'Clarice Cliff' style bright colours. I also got some Victorian or Edwardian pillowcases and a great crocheted doily, but they are soaking so I can't photograph them. All for less than £5. :D

Also, from Ebay, a great 30s clutch bag. Been wanting a multi coloured one for a while. I was looking at beaded ones, but I like this better!

I'm waiting on two Pendletons myself. I think they are my current obession. Well, those and 20 other things. :)

analiebe, that wardrobe is amazing. I would love to own some quality vintage furniture.
I got this cigarette card and two vintage photo postcards (Myrna Loy and Rosalind Russell.). My sister has this card and I have coveted it for years so I am glad I have my own now.

It's been so long since I purchased for myself. But I found this for my Beau and couldn't resist. Now he prances around like Hefner. Makes me giggle.

deadpan diva - yes, the wardrobe is just gorgeous - i've slowly slowly begun to gather some beautiful pieces of furniture - i don't have much $$$ so a great deal of hunting, wishing and patience (not one of my virtues i must admit) have been essential but well worth it - but its taken many years and there's still several pieces on the wish-list but fortunately i don't have a big house so neither can the list be..

and as for you cecil - THAT DRESS!!!!!!!!! i have no words! envy i have, but words no...

The Shirt....well hubba hubba, you're man will be styling!


Cecil...remember when you cried, actually cried over that other black dress auction? THIS dress leaves that lost dress in the dust! I don't know where you plan to debut this stunner, but tongues will be on the ground. Simply amazing and only to be carried by an equally amazing lady. Congrats!

I have wanted to do the stylish Chinese inspired party look for a while, I hope a trip to a MAC counter can provide me with a great makeover. I got this dress, I do know it isn't in true Cheongsam form, but I do like the stye and color of it - and I was in a time crunch, none of the shops I wanted to get Cheongsams from couldn't deliver in time.
