Well here is my latest purchase, I just received it in the post this morning and to my dismay does not fit :rage:

How heartbreaking! You could probably turn it around here--at least you could recoup the money, even if you're without a frock to show for it.

fftopic: I've thought of doing that and just may. I'm having a yard sale myself at the end of the month and have a few vintage clothing items that I'm putting out, of course the price will be what I want for them and probably won't budge on the prices even if I'm asked to go lower. So here's to recouping my losses.....lol

No offense taken I know it is a swimming cap I bought it so I can wear with my vintage bathing suit this summer. It's just a little difficult to tell which is the front and which is the back lol

I bought this formal vest for The Husband for our cruise. I had to buy the tux that came with it (non matching), but for $9.99 total I figured what the heck. lol I'll donate the tux to a consignment shop to maybe get back some money and karma points.

ok. cool, its just in the sixties lots of ladies wore hats that looked just like that day to day

my girlfriends mother looked exactly like Catherine Zeta Jones but wore terrible hats like that in the day (its not terrible in a swimming pool, i love it, but imagine it with a sixties mini dress)
