OH MY! What great buys ladies! The pink dress, the pinup postcards, the red shoes.. all of Daisy's fab finds, (love that necklace, it's DARLING!), all the sundresses and skirts and blouses. Y'all are doing GREAT!
Kim great dress, I agree, red belt! Sari you got some terrific books!

I've been trying to stay off the bay.. but alas.. that never lasts too long! I'm always on there looking for "something", and I always go back to searching vintage.
Here's my latest,

Still waiting for the periwinkle dress. The seller sent me the WRONG dress! But thank goodness she didn't send MY dress to someone else, they might have kept it, lol!

I've gotten some things I need to take pics of as well.

Daisy and JBD, it's so nice that you two are able to get together, but I'm so glad we can ALL virtual shop together here! :fedora:

Pink I hope the pink dress fits to a T, and Kimberly good luck dying yours!

Thanks Nikki, me too. I'm a little nervous with the luck I've been having lately.

Went to Goodwill today and picked up the two below for $1.00 each. Both of them look really cute on, but not so cute on the manni as she doesn't have the curves you need to do them justice.

Blue and White Polka Dot Pantsuit

Baby Blue and white play suit/romper. My legs look so good in them and I hate how my legs look in shorts. I think it's because this is the perfect length for me.

Went to a couple of antique stores and actually found some hats. I asked one of them if they ever get vintage clothing in and they said they don't even bother as there is no demand for it. [huh]

This one is so cute but I had a heck of a time taking a pic of it. I wore it to Goodwill and got two compliments. One of them said I was absolutely adorable in my hat and coat.

 

[ohairas]

Great *cheap* finds Kimberly, ugh.. just love those bargains.. Faythe you got some goodies too!

Kimberly, can't wait to see that last hat on you, it's wonderful and unique!

Heads up ladies!

I received these shoes from Newport News today.

They are extremely narrow in the toe area. I'm guessing they might run a half size too small. But I'm no expert on that. I am not ordering another pair. I don't really care for guess which size shoe will fit. Oh well.

Just posted a ton of stuff in classifieds, ladies.

i have not been shopping lately, but today i had a bad day, so i decided to get something.

$13 dollars later i have a nice wool dress. what do you think?

 

[Kimberly]

eBones, wool suits are my weakness.

That suit fits your perfectly and looks as if it were made for you! :eusa_clap

 

[RetroModelSari]

Awwww.... what a lovely wool-suit!!!! I love it!

 

[Tough Cookie]

I'm very much so in love with this necklace, Daisy! You have exquisite taste!

And the white dress with the red embroidery is especially darling.

 

[pretty faythe]

ebones, so purty

 

[Pink Dahlia]

Cute suit, Bones. I would never buy wool. Why, you ask? How's 120 degree temperatures for an answer?

1950s Henry Lee

I just got it in the mail yesterday!

 

[Rockapin-up]

Ohh, nice dress Meggan, and welcome to the lounge

 

[marquise]

... Excited for this dress, which I snapped for under $20. Luckily not too many gals are into late 20s-early 30s housedresses/simple sheaths like I am; it's just perfect for the coming-soon 90 degree summer; linen & cool!

This isn't new, but it was huge on me and I recently got it re-tailored, with a zipper (metal!) put in the side, for ony $10. 1930s plaid gardenparty dress!

& Continuing my obsession w/ '30s plaids, got this from vintagemartini.com for a school loan refund self-present. Love it dearly, though I'm not used to spending so much on one dress:

I posted this silk '30s dress from Ebay when I first got it, but I finally put on some buttons (it was without them). Love it, a bit too much.

&, my newest:

Was sniped from under my nose on the 'Bay, but the winning bidder graciously offered it to me when it didn't fit her! I'm in love with it.

Lastly, my non-engagementy engagement/elopement ring, from the boy:

from Ebay also.
