Friday Frock- Vintage Heavies

 

The dresses are the heavies, btw.  I've been lugging them around all day getting ready for the fair..and cursing myself for buying so many coats, wool crepes and long dresses.


 


We've had an influx of weighty 1930s/40s crepe dresses lately, many of which are coming to the fair tomorrow. This wool number wasn't quite ready in time but will be listed on Etsy in the coming weeks. It's such a treat to be able to try on our stock now that I fit into quite a lot of it, not only can I show you more, it means I can be much more helpful to my customers.


 

 Chronic bitchface- yep, it's working overtime today. As I say to VB....'HANDLE IT!!!'

dress- stock, ask if you're interested
belt- 50s with a 70s pendant worn as buckle
hat- from my collection
shoes- yet another pair from the wooden sole hall of fame

 

This last pic is just for La Dama- see, amorcito, prosti slap!!!
