Okay, I am supposed to be saving right now, but when I came across these marvelous 40s platforms I just had to bid! I mean, I really did need a pair of white shoes to replace my current pair (which I adore but are too delicate to wear except for photo shoots these days), and it really is hard to find white platforms in a size 7.5. Especially ones with ankle straps and cute polka dot cutouts! So, I think I was justified in snagging these, don’t you think? ;-)I'd love to hear about your latest finds--what has found its way into your closet recently?

Sounds like you've come across some great finds, Miss Amethyst! I'd love to see photos of those dresses :-)
ReplyDeleteHep~Kitten--I love 1950s sweaters! I'll bet your new one is fab :-)
Those shoes are totally justified! I love the cut-outs and the heels!
ReplyDeleteLike I stated on my blog, I recently scored some great wool skirts for winter, a beaded sweater for just over 13 bucks, unworn 50s pajamas, and yesterday I found a deadstock 50s plaid wiggle dress for only 43.40 USD! I was floored when I found it on Esty! I am on a savings binge too but I had to have that dress!
So cute! As I've been out of a job these past few months I've had to curb my spending, but now I've got a new job I can start looking again, yay! I'm keeping my eye out for a 40s gown I can wear over Christmas. x
ReplyDeleteI just (literally 15 mins ago) snagged a gorgeous vintage Hawaiian dress on Etsy! Label and maker weren't listed, but it looks like a Kamehameha to me. It has great colors.
ReplyDeleteBut my best recent steal was a 99 cent Miami Stylecraft lucite and wicker purse :)

Absolutely worth every penny!
ReplyDeleteCute!! I lucked into a bunch of 1940s, 30s, and even a pair of 20s shoes recently, absolutely exquisite. I'm a 7.5 too, and I can only wear one of the pairs of shoes I got, but they're so beautiful. Here's a pic of one pair: http://www.etsy.com/listing/62319795/vintage-1930s-brown-suede-shoes
