Nani of Hawaii Vintage 50s Hawaiian Sarong Dress | M |
$245
Are you looking for the hottest Hawaiian dress in a tantalizing array of tropical colors? Stop looking and click "buy me" if this dress fits you. It is the best.
The tappa print looks like stained glass. Those electric hot pink, turquoise and bright yellow shots of color evoke Paradise, and that's an island anyone would love to visit wearing this strappy sarong dress.
The sarong dress is such an alluring style. This one has a curve enhancing bodice with gorgeous draping. We've taken a clear, close- up photo to show how the skirt and bodice come together at the hip. You better believe that it's as scintillating as can be.
The dress is cotton. It h ... [more]

Black & White Vintage 60s Silk Cocktail Dress | S-M |

Oh, you coquette! You're the flirty one that causes heads to turn as you stroll in wearing a delightful dress from the '60s that's got a black bodice and a bold, eye-catching skirt that's as graphic as can be. You better believe they'll notice you.
This is a charmer. The dress is of good quality, too. It's made of silk and acetate and it's fully lined. The bodice, as well as the curved hem of the sarong-ish styled skirt, is made of jet black slubbed silk. There's even a little Audrey Hepburn style bow at the waist of this cutie. There's a bit of fullness to the skirt which adds some drama to the silhouette. It's got a tulip type shape to it. It ... [more]

Major curve hugging and shape enhancing, a top like this one made of black velveteen ought to comfortably find a way into your closet. Wear it with jeans and you'll still look very dressed-up in a "I didn't really try that hard at all" sort of way.
This top has lots of shaping and seaming that makes it really tailored to fit. There's a full row of self-fabric buttons in the back to close it. And, it's in fantastic new old stock condition. The original tags are still in place.

Bamboo & Raffia Vintage 60s Satchel Handbag | |
$35
Summer is the best time to pull out a nice, top handled raffia bag and fill it with your essentials. This one is black. It's from the 60s and it's got natural bamboo trim that accents the handles beautifully. We think that bamboo gives the bag an air of designer-chic.
This is a frame bag with big handles. It's lined in a nice patterned textile in browns and greens. The bottom of the bag has leather tabs and metal feet to keep it from getting grungy.
This is a simple thing and the size is just right--not too big and not too small. Perfect for summer, really. ... [more]

Pinky Coral Vintage 40s/50s Swing Coat Fur Ascot | XL |
$145
Prettiest pinky coral trimmed up in a lush, rich, fur ascot and cuffs--could there be a finer way to stay warm while wearing your vintage frocks? Not likely.
This smashing swing coat is from the very late '40s or possibly the '50s. It's made of nubby bouclé wool. The fur accents are marmot which is shiny, sleek and wonderfully rich. The fur is so very smooth and not in the least bit dry. Instead of a typical fur collar, this one acts as an over-sized ascot with one side of the huge tie threading through a large loop in the other side. What a fabulous design detail. For added drama, the cuffs are trimmed in marmot, too.
Inside, the coat is lined in coral crepe. It ... [more]

Hot Psychedelic Vintage 60s Cole of CA Swimsuit | M |
$75
No color combo is quite as happy making as orange with hot pink. This bold colorful swimsuit from Cole of California is, indeed, a saucy smile maker. It's made of a nylon/poly stretch jersey. There's a built-in bra for extra shaping and structure (no more drooping...yay!)
We love the low cut tank style for its ease and it's sex appeal. The sunny bright colorway makes a day at the beach all the more exciting. Wear it to a pool party. Enjoy a drink with an umbrella. You'll be a tropical bombshell bathing beauty! ... [more]

Rayon Lace Vintage 50s Navy Full Slip | M |
$58
Lovely vintage dresses deserve lovely vintage underthings. We think this particular underthing is quite special. It's a deep, rich navy rayon slip that's made of silky soft rayon. This full slip is cool and comfortable. The bodice is inset with a banded waist and the cups are trimmed in lux lace detailed with a great big tattoo like bow banner design. Love it.
This has a nice weight and drape. The length ought to be perfect with your 40s and 50s ensembles, especially since the straps are adjustable. It appears this size 36 slip would fit a B or C cup.
Oh, and the condition is wonderful, too. Wish they still made them like this! ... [more]

Sculptural Vintage 50s Shawnee Planter | |
$24
If you're in need of a gorgeous, modern, sculptural dish, look no further than this Shawnee planter. It's got a pebble finish of gray and black and white--teeny tiny dots making up the glaze. The planter is extreme and looks perfect standing alone or with something growing in it. We like the shiny pink glaze inside the dish, too.
This is nice. It can function in many ways. We'd love to know what you do with this when it's in your home. Perhaps you'd want to use it as a candy dish? A key bowl? Or, maybe a fruit bowl. Whatever you decide, it's going to look great on your table. ... [more]
