It’s not my color but I looove the red dress in the last photo. I suspect I’d be wearing the more structured green and white thing off to its right….

You know, if I lived in the 40’s….

You are too funny! did anyone ever tell you you shoulda been a writer? You know how to tell the story AND keep us in stitches! I love the introductions. I too look inside all random and obscure boxes at estate sales, flea markets, & garage sales. you never know what you’re gonna find! Enjoy, Julie

Oooh, what a fabulous find!! I love paper dolls and these ones are amazing. So many outfits to choose from. I definitely think you should recreate some for yourself.

Thank you so much for your lovely comments on my blog. I really appreciate it.

Sue, your vintage dresses are most fabulous! You are a woman after my own heart. We must bring some of our dresses to wear at Silver Bella. And I’ll definitely have a look for that feature in Lucky magazine – thanks for the tip.

I didn’t know you had a vintage clothing store. No wonder you and your daughter are so very retro-cool!!! Love those dresses, especially the navy blue but I also adore the first one with the cowboy boots. That tutorial on refashioning sweaters is great! That will make some terrific sweaters.

Do you ever remember days you got killer deals…like the day Katie got three perfect vintage cashmere sweaters for a dollar each at the estate sale of a little old lady? And she still can wear them!

Vintage clothes…not go good for big girls like me…but I do love them on my girl!

I would love to see you in them, too, Sue…
