a sophisticated dress

Hiyee.
I'm selling this beautiful 60s A-Line dress in the shop, and I thought I'd share it with you over here on the blog. It's quite sophisticated and features an exaggerated Peter Pan collar, structured darts & seams, front side slit pockets, and is probably made from a wool blend. It has a stiff A-line fit that I just adore!

new in shop!

It sure is hard to add items to my Etsy when I work full-time but with the help of my dear friend Stacy at Fancy Disaster, I am happy to present you with some fine vintage gems which are available for purchase now.

i rode my bicycle [backwards] passed your window last night

But for the freakishly cold weather, and the hat lady vendor who must have repeated “Get a hat, get ahead” about 1000 times to passers by, and within ear shot of us, Stacy & I had a fun time selling vintage clothing last Sunday at the Long Beach Flea Market.  I wore one of my all time favorite vintage sweaters, a treasured gift from Mikey, who gave it to me when I turned 19 years old.  She found it at the thrift store, of course. It features a lanky gal with flowers coming out of her hair, riding backwards on a bicycle. I think it pretty much sums up my personality.

Fancy Disaster & Nakedcowgirl Vintage will be selling at the Long Beach Flea Market next month too, so if you missed out on this one, and you live nearby, you’re in luck.

Byeee.

Outfit: vintage 70s suede jacket, 70s sweater, vintage olive-green skirt, vintage Bass oxfords (thrifted), book necklace (etsy), Rodarte for Target tights.
