Target, I found was hand's down the BEST place to buy maternity. They had all the basic staples for great prices. I went to Liz Lange, Pea in the Pod, etc, but the same darn things there were four times or more the price! Since you'll be getting bigger in the cooler weather, sweaters will be...
Daisy, I hear you on the shopping and I know a lot of people call it 'filling a void'. I'm not so sure that's true because when I'm happy, I shop, when I'm sad, I shop, etc. lol For me it's simply the beauty of the items, much like it is with guitars - the wood, the different sounds each...
Daisy:
I almost bid that dress myself but decided that the flaws were too great to warrant the price. My guess is that it looked much better in photos then it would in person. Are you looking for a gown to wear to the Queen Mary event? I have a gorgeous cream-colored Victor Costa halter-style...
We get there around 7:30, 8:00 AM and do ok with parking and traffic. Weekends, you might need to go earlier.

The thing that's funny is I love vintage, especially...
Thanks Doll! Love your purchases.
As for Ebay -- I have to say this is a lot cheaper than my guitar habit :eek:
That's become truly pathetic but (I think) I've got what I need instrument-wise. Dress??? Um, I think not :)
Isn't this cute...

Hi there. My name's Linda. Just joined a couple days ago. I am both an avid purchaser and a dealer online (NOT Ebay!) I do mostly jewelry right now, both costume and fine and am venturing into vintage clothing. I will mostly dresses, both cocktail and casual, with some coats and...
Speaking of Lilli Ann, I couldn't resist this jacket:

Also, I was just outbid on a 1920s wedding dress -- sheath style. I know fair's fair but I wanted to hurt her lol
It is not unusual for even some of the best designers to troll for vintage for inspiration. Fashion tends to renew itself on twenty-year cycles which explains th retro-40s thing going on now. The 40s too were a very classic era for suits and can usually be worn off the rack with perhaps a...
