Gorgeous slips, Drappa!

 

[Miss Golightly]

LOVE the floral slip in particular Drappa - simply gorgeous!

 

[Drappa]

Thank you Miss G and Almost Vintage! The floral one is almost too pretty to be worn under clothing. It's sitting in my wardrobe, waiting for the perfect outing, I may use it under an eyelet dress I have.

 

[Miss Golightly]

Miss G - looking forward to seeing you in a lovely dress too . And that blue suit.... divine!!

Sorry LinaSofia - only seeing this now - thank you - I hope the colour of the suit is the same as the photos!

I'm in a bit of a suit buzz at the moment:

^Haha thanks! It was love at first sight. I've hung it in my bathroom where I have a tropical beach theme, but it will also make an ideal purse for hot summer days!

I have a couple of those little coconut purses from an estate sale they are adorable.

[LinaSofia]

Drappa those slips are beautiful!! Like you say, it's a shame covering them up!

Miss G, that second suit is also beautiful! Wow, you've made some great buys recently (well always!).

 

[LinaSofia]

Every lady needs a crocodile or alligator bag in her vintage wardrobe...even if it is "faux" like this one I just bought.

 

[LinaSofia]

very nice! every girl indeed needs one!

Thanks, LS!

Oops, almost forgot that the dvd Keeper of the Flame (Hepburn & Tracy 1942) will be arriving on April 12. Yet another favorite war-time movie of mine. I wish they'd hurry and put Janie (Joyce Reynolds 1944) and The Uninvited (Ray Milland 1944) on dvd. If I had those two on dvd, I'd pretty much have all my favorites.

My first actual vintage dress!

It's pink! With polkadots! Plus, it fits perfectly!

And look at the back, a bow!

I know I paid too much for it, but it is in perfect condition. Listed as never worn, but I can see the hem has been taken up, so perhaps worn for a party and then packed away. It hits right at my knee, which looks cute enough, but I have plans to make another pink 50s dress that will be knee length, so I think I will let this hem out to a more 50s length.

Just for the heck of it, a cute pair of spacey earrings to go with it. These are really neat, they reach below the ear lobe and the branches go up along the side of the ear.

 

[TimeWarpWife]

The dress is absolutely gorgeous!!! Lucky you.
