I have already threatend to take all her purses and I'm closer.

Just kidding...seriously :whistling

 

[The Shirt]

I can do whatever I want on my walls! The glory of living alone - heh heh.
Wait I shouldn't have said alone - I have a real big guard dog trained to take out those who attempt to steal my stash of bags. Yeah a real big dog.

This little baby arrived from Ebay US today. In dire need of an iron obviously but really cute. It buttons up the back and the label says MORLOVE The Couturier Blouse. It has 8 rows of tiny stitching around the neckline - it's detailing like that that gets me salivating over a plain cream blouse!

HA Ha! It's out now! I know the truth!

DPD, I love the idea of us being glamorous partners in crime. Call me baby!

 

[imoldfashioned]

Details like that are why I love vintage--it's adorable even before you've ironed it too!

Off topic, but I love what's on your bookshelves--Cindy Sherman, rhyming dictionary. I'm such a bookshelf snoop--maybe I should start a thread "take a picture of one of your bookshelves".

Oh people's bookshelves are like little samples of who they are aren't they? The Cindy Sherman is an obvious one I suppose - she's all about dressing up!

I also got this adorable ring from Accessorize. Not vintage but oh-so-pretty:

We could have our on sitcom.

The Shirt has to win the award for innovate storage techniques - not only a great display, but so practical.

MissHannah, it's nice to see that the sort of jewelery we used to see in carved Bakelite is "in" this season!

I also got this adorable ring from Accessorize. Not vintage but oh-so-pretty:

Cute ring! It's very similar to art deco celluloid designs which seem to be popular in high street shops at the moment. I've got a large pair of earrings similar to your ring but in red. The Accessorize sale was great, I picked up some cute hair flowers and clips with 70% off.

I've been naughty and bought so much lately. I'm most excited about receiving this 1941-42 edition of the Chicago Mail Order Company catalogue. I paid £20 for it but considering it's over 550 pages it's definitely worth it!

I also got 2 smaller catalogues from the same seller -

 

[Audrey Horne]

Wow that's a great catalog! I love the hair in the picture with the hats.

 

[Audrey Horne]

I found two dresses for super cheap at a thrift store yesterday.

This one is velvet, and I have no idea how old it is. It has great details on the back but it turned out to be way too small for me. There are no tags but the zipper looks pretty new. What do you ladies think?

This one is probably 80s? 90s? but it looked 40s inspired to me so I got it.

 

[ShooShooBaby]

sarahlouise, i am DYING over your new catalog!!! i only have a 1944 montgomery wards one, which is cool, but obviously not as cool as 1941-42.

awesome ring, too!

 

[anabolina]

Wow Sarah Louise, I love your catalog, all that wonderful clothes. <hmmm> And I love your new dresses Audrey, they look beautiful.

Okay, and here's my latest buys.

Pair of sunglasses:

Pair of shoes:

 

[Miss Brill]

My finds--


Like new, green wool bag with an odd handle/clasp (from Garay--it was $12 has a mirror & comb):

Victorian match safe--it was $15:

And hats...

This scarf-thing was $3 (it looks dirty in the pic [huh] ):

And this was $5:

 

[MJrules]

Pretty!

Oh Miss Brill, your "scarf-thing"...is it possibly an ear warmer that ties under the chin? They were going for too-much-for-what-they-were at Urban Outfitters and in scary colors too. I just saw the pearly leaves on yours and went "aww". Awesome bag, too.

 

[Miss Brill]

Thanks!

Ear warmer! That is what I couldn't think of! lol

I started to buy it a couple months ago, and I put it back, then they still had it, so I got it. It looks cute on too. They would be soooo easy to knit if anyone knits (great for resell!).

Ultra cute, I love the simple things with attention to details.

Some Daniel Green's:

and this:

Not vintage, it's Anthropologie. Still reeling over the price, but I lusted after it for so long I couldn't hold off any longer.
