wedding dress

Yes, regular old dress hangers. I never thought about it before, but I guess that I collect them. Or at least I hoard all the pretty ones for myself. Buying clothing out of estates over the years, I've ended up with some very nice ones. Floral, padded satin, from one estate I got about 100 crochet covered hangers. A recent purchase brought me several hangers covered in vinyl florals. Pretty.

I've had some good luck finding vintage shoes lately. I have a small foot, but it's wide, and ladies all had some narrow feet back in the day.
Here are the 4 pairs that I've bought this month. The two brown pairs I just bought on etsy this morning, so I'm still crossing my fingers that those will fit. I'm happily wearing the bottom black pair right now. All came from etsy and all where $30 or less. There are good buys to be found! I'm still looking for a navy pair of shoes, simliar to these styles.

This week I made a vintage stock purchase for the website of about 50 pieces. I ended up keeping some goodies for myself, because it is Christmas time and I've been a good girl this year. First, I kept 5 vintage purses for myself. Yes 5. But I really need these purses. I mean, navy, grey and brown are must-have colors. And you can always squeeze in a few neutral colors. You can never have too many purses.
There were about a dozen hats in the lot, all in their own boxes. I wasn't interested in keeping any hats for myself, but I had to keep this pretty box with ladies painted on it.



And I kept 5 sweaters for myself (I decided not to keep the sweater on the right side of the photo) plus there is a black cashmere sweater not shown. I wore the aqua cashmere today. I love the shade.


Finally here are some glimpes of what I wore one day last week. I just thought that I was so cool because I wore a Spring green skirt with black tights - like no one has ever done that before. And yes, I'll wear open shoes in the Winter if it isn't too cold, with opaque tights.
Not only do I sell it, I wear it - Vintage - skirt, rayon blouse, jacket, shoes and pin. Stockings are the only new thing. And yes, I need a lint brush.
