Vintage Treasures

Over the weekend i went antiquing in a little town about a half hour away; there i found the holy grail of vintage clothes. There is a lady, that has owned the most fabulous clothing from the 1940s onwards, and who wore it all at it's most popular height, and now she's selling it at really reasonable prices. I'm truly in awe of the state of everything she has. The hats look brand new! The shoes.. oh! the shoes! She has a pair for sale, leopard print, from Paris, from the 50's. Damn my big feet! (size 8.5) i think i might see who out there that has small feet would be willing to fork over the cash for them, they are so gorgeous! I'll have to post a photo. I want to meet this lady. I want to dive into her vintage closet and swim around in the beautiful designs and craftsmanship of well made clothing. I want to soak up the glamour that existed in those days. Pretty much I just want to own everything of hers.. and every chance i get i'm going to go back and buy more. because, well if you look at the hats below.. you cant help feeling just a bit glamorous when wearing them. Watch out Dita von Teese, i'm gonna have a better collection than you. haha!
