hailey, I love the details on the blouse on the bottom. Great find!

I forgot to bid on this the first time and then it was relisted with a BIN price that was $15 less than the first time it was listed. I have been having problems finding actual vintage things that fit me so I am happy. Wish I could find a 30's dress in my size though.

Thanks Swinggal and Hazel
Hazel, the details were what sold me it reminds me of early disney tomorrow land the buttons have even cuter detail, but they are so small it doesn't show in the pic.

While I try to sell shoes in the classifieds (cool retro Ked's, ladies, size 10, price reduced!!), I fell hard for these:

I've given up on heels higher than 2 inches so these Posture Foundation (the PF Flyers people) replace the Ked's that's my story and i'm sticking to it.

Okay, seriously, those are beyond fantastic. I have some PF Flyers Oxfords (canvas) and I get compliments on them all the time.

Where oh where did you get these?!

I just made a haul at one of our antique stores. Most of what I got was on sale too.

Silver and abalone pin - I love abalone jewerly and colors go well with my red hair

Stratton of England compact - the mirror is perfect and it still has the powder screen so I filled it with Coty powder and it's ready to go

Fantastic 20s compact with "tango" chain - it goes around your finger so you can easily hold it while dancing. I'm sure every fashionable flapper had one.

This is the one I'm most proud of, a 1930s ivory satin bed jacket in excellent condition. I gently handwashed it in Woolite and it's ready to wear.

My husband got me these beautiful Chanel sunglasses yesterday - I've had my eye on them for a few weeks!:

 

[Lottie]

You sure do have a nice hubby. They're lovely.
I just ordered my first pair of remixes- they were 50% off, in my size (e.g. huge ) *and* match my hair colour:

Now let's hope they fit!
They'd be so perfect for summer...

Lottie, they are gorgeous!

found Sat 6/5 at the Art Deco and Modernism Show and Sale in SF: Vintage 1940's rayon crepe full length gown, with old gold and pale aqua beading at neckline bodice and down the center back. Fits me perfectly, amazingly its even the right length! In these pictures (taken at the show for a quick try on) the dress came out looking much lighter, its actually a lovely raspberry shade. Upon closer inspection today, it has even more very cool 40s details than I first realized. Will try to get some tight and closeup pictures very soon.

You always look so glamourous, Madame Carey! What a lovely dress :eusa_clap

I finally got a darning egg! Yay!

I got this blouse a little while ago, but finally got a pic that is half decent. It has a tie at the neck that doesn't show up very well and adorable puffy sleeves. It is from the Jitterbuggin shop on ETSY. http://www.etsy.com/shop/Jitterbuggin
Kim is great, I got 2 blouses from her and they are both very well done, to my specifications. This one is the Irving blouse. I also got a Lovejoy, which I don't have any pics of.

I am also wearing my very first bakelite bangles I got at the yard sale last weekend. The first of many I hope. Oh, and my orchid from Belle Blossoms. At least 4 people asked me if it was real when I wore it on Saturday.

Thanks Lottie! I hope when your lovely shoes arrive that they fit you perfectly!

I finally got a lovely pair of these Ferragamo shoes that I have been after for months!!!!!!:

Not vintage, but they have a distinctly 50's Tikki vibe and I thought they were too cute to not share.

I'm thinking I need black cigarette pants and a teal halter top to go with them

Love! I love Kensie shoes. And that aqua accent is divine!
