I really love sheer blouses. I am wary of putting ruffles on my bust, because I really don't need more volume there, but I have had my eye on this coral sheer blouse at my local vintage store...I might need to just go buy it. I keep thinking about it. lol

I haven't purchased a vintage dress in ages. I've just been getting patterns, but I just won this from ebay. I hope th bodice won't be too large. I am so happy to have something that isn't balck or navy blue.

DPD. I love it, is lovely

 

[crazydaisy]

deadpandiva, I know what you mean about the black, a lot of vintage stuff out there seems to be black, every time I find a little dress that has the right measurements is black and God knows it is not the best color on me, so I try to stay away. This dress you found is lovely, with a nice, very deco mix of colors and will look great on you!

Have faith - I have plenty of vintage stuff and only one black coat, suit and day dress. Black's not a good colour for me either, so I just don't really bother to look at it. I go straight to the colours I like on the rail.

I don't even have a plain black evening dress - amazing, really. Keep looking and you'll find something that suits you.

Love the Boots packaging . Has anyone seen it in the US ?

 

[Antje]

Miss Golightly, fab dress and such sweet jumpers.

Darhling, what great packaging is it real vintage or new with vintage package?

exquisitebones, fab earings

 

[Darhling]

Antje - It is new products in their old type of packaging and also their old formulas! I have only tried the handcream so far and it is VERY good - Better than my Clarins and Nuxe handcream I have tried earlier.

It's been in Target here for a couple of months. The only things that have kept me from buying them are the lavender and rose scents. I'm not usually fond of those scents. Can anyone tell me how strong they are? They're all closed up at the stores.

I am not a fan of strong scents eiter, especially lavender, but the lavender handcream is GREAT. I feel like the scent is a bit more fresh soapy like (in a good way), light, but not too light in texture and sinks in super fast! I'll review te two other products when I have tried them out (the review will properly go on my blog though).

I bought this set at an antique store years ago. They are peach, and in superb condition. The only bad thing is, they are too big. There is no date either, but if you have a guess I would love to hear it.
