It's 1940's, light blue with brown velvet trim. I'm very excited for it, I love light blue and brown.

I have no idea what vintage this is, and as its not arrived yet I can't judge any better from the materials, but its just so cute! I've not seen a scarf holder like this before, and its the logo for the band I work for too so I just had to have it.
its just perfect, bakelite I believe and another wonderful bargain.
This is just the most amazing resource. If you ladies are interested I'd be happy to scan it in for you? It has all sorts of great tips and patterns, including ->
how to turn your fellas suit into one for yourself.
This wasn't a bargain, but worth every penny. This seller has the most amazing hats... if money wasn't a concern I'd be buying pretty much everything she lists.
But for every pricey item, there is always another of those bargains! I've always wanted a robe like this and it is even nicer in person. It cost only $9. My favourite price bracket!
another bargain,
Which I'm starting to be thankful for quite frankly, seeing these all down here makes me realise that I should probably bar myself from evilbay for a while, although my favourite item is up next (yup, I need three posts for all the pictures. sorry!)

Now I just need to find a cute pair of navy spectator pumps. Any ideas ladies?

It's just the thing for the cooler weather. As you know, I've been on the lookout for cozy warm vintage dresses.

I was thinking of buying that skirt, but wasn't sure which size to go. I love the entire look of this skirt and it's a soft brown as well. The price kind of puts me off, but it's nice anyway.Tough Cookie said:I am pleased to have won this skirt:
I don't think it was a bargain, exactly, but sometimes you get what you pay for! I'm happy with it, especially because I've lacked a brown skirt in my warderobe for some time, and I love the styling on this. It fits like a glove too. Wearing it today with small-holed black fishnets (appropriate for the office) and a black vintage-style sweater--yes, this is an outfit I'd like to be wear should I happen to run into any old boyfriends, LOL.
I reconise that lady in the first pic! I've also won stuff off her as well. Got a nice black velvet 30's jacket.jitterbugdoll said:They still sell candy cigarettes--I pass them out when I work as a cigarette girl
Love the two-piece set, Lauren--those are always fun!
I just bought another 40s coat--don't know why, since I hardly get to wear them in AZ
Plus a few hats:
I accidentally outbid my friend on this one (an auction which Lauren so kindly sent my way), so it may end up with her depending on who it looks best on lol
I was actually watching that dress, but never got around to bidding!Miss Dottie said:

Those are darling! I can never find little items like these, anywhere.Folly said:Only my second e-bay purchase ever. Two circa WWII Royal navy sweetheart brooches.
I love this skirt! Stop Staring, or a brand like it, makes one similar to it that I have been looking at for a while now. Just haven't taken the step to buying it yet, which is kind of funny because it's not like me to not buy something I like! Have fun wearing it, show all of those old boyfriends what they're missing!!Tough Cookie said:I am pleased to have won this skirt:
