Both together for about 7 Euro (including shipping) and the seller says the most of them are in very good shape...;)

Good finds Sari, you got a real bargain.


Cute sweaters Kim, maybe you can use those collars and cuffs that makes it look as thoguh you're wearing a shirt, those are cute.

Looking good MysteryGal.

Good grief, Charlie Brown...

Ugh - I don't think I'm measuring myself correctly...in the absence of my tape measure, I had to resort to using the string method, and I just don't think it's right! So far, everything but one shirt I've bought off eBay has been too small, even though the measurements have matched mine. Tonight I am investing in an honest-to-goodness tape measure and doing it the right way. I don't know why I have such a hard time finding clothes in my size...I'm busty, but not *that* busty....sheesh! It's enough to give a girl a complex! :)

At any rate, I've got a bunch of clothing to put back on eBay, but I'd be happy to give you ladies a head start if any one is interested - they'll be in the Classified section by the end of the weekend.

Kim B even though I do measure myself with a tape measure, so far everything vintage I have bought is way too small, especially in the bust. It is very frustrating.

Definitely interested! Generally it helps to go up an inch or two in the bust from your measurement. Waist I don't go up at all. Seems to work for me pretty well.

Bad girl that I am- I just got this nightgown on Ebay today- but it was a good price at $15 :)

And I got this a few weeks ago for only $8.19. I'm pretty excited about it! It's oh-so-30's in person and a cute yellow color with a green deco buckle.

Gorgeous buys! I especially love the burnt orange dress!
I have always wanted a Lilli Ann suit, but they only seem to go for silly prices, but about 2 weeks ago there was one list and for BIN $50!!
I recieved it yester and it fits so perfectly and it is so much nicer than in the pics!

I have just recieved one of my recent purchases a beautiful black 'Harrods' London suit :) . It is so much nicer in real life, than in pictures (as is the case with most vintage items)

This I actually got for free from a friend. She bought it at a store, loved it, but didn't try it on before buying it. Anyways, got home and didn't fit...so I get to be the lucky one who gets to have it!

Texasgirl, I saw one exactly like that at the Forestwood Antique Mall...it had a broken link in the plastic chain. Is that the same one?

No, I got this one on ebay, it's supposed to be in perfect condition and I got it for $10! So hopefully it will be nice. We did go to Forestwood per your suggestion- I loved the one lady's vintage clothes section, but her prices were high!
