Happy Camper

Ahh one of my gorgeous, happy customers, Jess from Shiny Shiny, bought this fantastic Evan Piccone full wool skirt in my etsy shop. It is a beautiful skirt & looks fabulous on her!

3 pieces united at last

I'm quite proud of my recent purchases on etsy and addition to my tea sets collection. I have several shelves which I have various 'white ware' pieces, tea sets, and an occasional piece with a pop of color.

I was browsing etsy and found a cute sugar bowl and creamer set. I just love the design which is sort of a white swirl that wraps around each piece. I also discovered the matching pitcher on etsy from a different seller. I was just so delighted to make a set and this awesome design!
I do not know too much about it and it could be quite common. It has a great mid-century modern design but really not sure of year. (I did a quick search and got 60s-80s ?). There is an ever so slight variation in color in all of them; however, my camera made it appear as the sugar bowl is way off...not sure why. My intentions were to use the sugar bowl and creamer for everyday so just happy to have an extra piece in the set.

50s Friday

Well, I was going to post an entry every day this week and of course, time got away from me. So here it is Friday already. I decided to pick and choose 50s (or inspired) pieces in black and white.

I love these heels. I am not a huge fan of the vinyl slingbacks or springolaters only because the vinyl is often yellowed. But these don't look too bad and I love the braiding detail which masks any aging of the vinyl anyway. These are only $30 from GoodEye (size 8). The insoles need a repair/ replacement, but can be done easily and shouldn't cost too much.

Another beautiful dress from DearGoldenVintage. This is a Jerry Gilden dress in a unique medallion filigree-esque print with rhinestone detail. Size Small (w=26").

1950s style lovely black Italian leather strappy heels by Garolini (1970-1984) in size 6. These are from Mikkiriff and in pristine condition for $50.

A black and white stripe 1950s style number, perfect for summer and dancing. It is size small (w=28") from pinehaven2 ($35).

Vintage Monet White Bead Necklace Multi Layers from Vintageday ($15)

1950s wiggle dress with Peter Pan collar (w=28") from Vintagephilosophy.
