London street style—vintage 1960s coat and bag! Perfect.
(via Street Style Aesthetic)
a couple of my favorites in the shop today: 1940s gold platform heels and a 1950s folkloric embroidered dress.
this 1950s dress needs some work, but it’s a doozy, with folkloric embroidery all over, including cute little horses!
Insane umbrella and flower print dress (and umbrella!) from the Sears Spring/Summer 1955 catalog.
(via Vixen Vintage)
My favorite skirt in the shop right now. 1950s iridescent rainbow striped taffeta full skirt, by Nathalie Nicoli.
Another fantastic print find! 1940s fruit and vegetable print wrap dress, available in my Etsy shop.
One of my crazier finds: a 1960s pop art pepper and eggplant print blouse, by Malbe. Available in my Etsy shop.
