definitely NOT VBO, and DEFINITELY a splurge (I rarely spend $35 on ANYTHING!) - but it was just so BEAUTIFUL! (the picture is of the back)

What bargains! Beautiful finds all, Timorous, but I like this dress best. If it is this pretty from the back what must the front look like? Do you have a picture?

 

[Nashoba]

Okay, question from the ignorant....what's VBO?

 

[Rockapin-up]

VBO = Vintage Blowout Sale on Ebay.

Found this little playsuit for Dashiell a few weeks ago and thought it had a vintage inspired look to it.
Found quite a bit more classic looking things for him today that I'll post throughout the week..

Bought this. I think it needs a slip.

 

[pigeon toe]

Pink - nice signature! I love April March.

Here are a few things I purchased recently. NOT from ebay, TYVM, I'm still off it.

Then, some OPI:
Red Hot Ayers Rock

Koala Bear-y

Malage Wine

Strawberry Margarita

The colors are off, but you get the idea - I was in the mood for brights! Except for malaga wine.

Thanks! Isn't that collar and tie great?

Kitten

There were more revealing pics but I thought this would be the least offensive.

Bella

Hi Maria. Nice to meet you too. The dresses at Daddyos are to die for! I really love that site because they actually make plus size repro's. It is SO hard to find vintage plus size! In any case, that gem is to die for. Good luck!

I recognize her! Patchwork Princess is on my favorite sellers list. I haven't bought anything, she gets too many bids for my budget.





As for recent buys, all I bought was a bottle of New York Color nail enamel in Times Square Tangerine, which is very Gidget-ish and summery.

 

[Pink Dahlia]

Brill, I guess I shouldn't mention that dress was $14.99!
I don't have the deep pockets either.

Oh my heart's still beating rapid fire! I just won my Pink Dahlia gown. My first formal dress. I'm thinking this will look quite nice on the QM.

Oh yeah, under $50.

Awww, he is darling!!!
I love the outfit too, it does have quite the vintage look to it.
A couple of summers ago I got my nephew some darling vintagey outfits from The Childrens Place. He's 2 1/2 now, and all grown up , he's very picky and my sister gives him full control of his wardrobe. So I don't think I'll be getting him into any vintage any time soon! I did buy him a t-shirt with a giant crocodile that he loves so much my sis has been washing it every night so he can wear it every day I'm really glad he likes the clothes I buy him, but I think someone should inform my sister of the consequences of giving a kid everything he wants!! But anyway, I love those outfits, and although it's been over a year since I got the ones for Isaac, if you have a children's place near you, I'd check it out. They also have incredible sales!
He really is a cutie!! Do post more pictures of him, it puts a great big smile on my face

 

[ShooShooBaby]

Oh yeah, under $50.

dahlia, you're gonna look fab!!

 

[catspyjamas]

By the way, does anyone know why some of the photos on this thread don't show up ? Is there a time limit or a max. number of images that one can post ?

Again, at the Reading Airshow I found more goodies! I got an original 40's cigarette case, a pair of original crocheted gloves with little red bows on them and an original 20's nightgown. I had been searching for years for original 40's black stacked heel shoes in my size and finally found them :eusa_clap

Now if I could figure out how to post photos, I show you them all.

Aw thanks ladies!

 

[RetroModelSari]

I´m back from vacation and all I can say is AWWWWWW!!!! The swedish antique-stores really throw out vintage magazines. About 1 $ a piece. I got tons of 20s magazines + a catalogue and a cute mag from the 50s. I´ll probably post some cute scans in the beauty section. Besides that I got a georgous US Auxilary Cape, a beautifull 50s bustier and a yellw skirt (I guess that one is from the 60s, but it´s so cuuute) It paid off for me for sure!!!

 

[Sweet Leilani]

This is my first-ever bakelite bangle. And yes, that is how much I paid! I thought I was seeing things in the thrift store, but no- needless to say I did not let go of it until I was safely out of the store!
