Last week was a very busy week scouring the city and surrounding area for vintage goodies.
Here are just a few of the vintage treasures I brought home.

Do you fancy any of these vintage pieces?
What is your favourite?
My most recent finds yet to be listed include an authentic Emilio Pucci dress (yay me!) and a Victoria Beckham dress that looks brand new.
I also came across a Valentino dress however I spent a good ten minutes trying to figure out how the heck it was meant to be worn. It was like a puzzle and I wasn’t sure I’d finished it correctly. When a dress needs an instruction manual it’s a pass for me.
Be sure to follow me on Instagram where I also share my latest vintage clothing discoveries…sometimes right when I’m buying them!
Have a great weekend!
Fabulous finds Suzanne!
Love the Gunne Sax dress,- did I own it once upon a time?-,
the peach maxi, and that gorgeous metallic halter dress!
All so, um, better than now, because they also add yesterday to the mix!

You find some great things Suzanne! The floral jumpsuit reminds me of an iconic TV play we saw in the 70s, Abigail’s Party.
If you come across any Ribkoff pieces, size 6 or 8 (us) I’d love to know.
I love the Miss Fisher floral dress! And I have to say that you look absolutely amazing in that jumpsuit my friend. 🙂

Ooohh… I wish I was 30% smaller.
What fabulous finds you made! I think my favourite is the crushed velvet maxi dress and the black and white rose blouse.

My question is, “WHY ARE YOU SELLING THAT SCRUMPTIOUS FLORAL JUMPSUIT WHEN IT LOOKS FRICKIN” MAGNIFICENT ON YOU????”
Most of the stuff you post is all too small for me, sigh.
Ha ha! I do love that jumpsuit but it is tight on me. : (.
I found some Stella McCartney platform oxfords at Talize today. I didn’t buy them. I think I may have to go back and get them. There was a tiny flaw in them I’m wondering if it could be fixed. It felt a bit like a nail head or staple was sticking out a bit in the sole close to the toe area. They were a size 7 and fit me. I shouldn’t have come home and looked at the price of those retail.
That peach dress is too cute!!
All fantastic finds, Suzanne. These will be flying off your racks! Clothes shouldn’t need instructions to put them on. Heh. If you don’t slow down your thrifting you’ll have to wear Hush Puppies! Remember those shoes? They were my punishment when I was a kid with AAA narrow feet. Grrr. Frumpiest shoes in school. Nobody measures feet anymore. When did that stop?
So many great finds, Suzanne!! Out of this grouping, my favorites are the “faces” turtleneck, the sequined mini, and the 90s floral skirt. I also liked the peach midi dress, the polkadot skirt you added sweet embellishments to, and those two red maxis, which I initially thought were the same dress!
You find the best stuff!
Hugs,

I think the last time I had a 26″ waist I was, oh…. err…. let’s see… in 8th grade?
Is it wrong to want to lose weight just to fit into vintage clothing?
There is no question that you have a keen eye for unique but also very universally appealing vintage fashion. I’m sure that your years of scouring the estate sales helped to educate you on which items qualified as treasures.
My broad shoulders are such a major road block for anything that isn’t in the large size range. I love the faces turtleneck. I’m pretty sure I see Twiggy and Jean Schrimpton among those faces. I wear dresses so infrequently but have started to broaden my taste to include the vintage frock look (love that word).
I’m swooning over that floral jumpsuit and also the mod’s turtleneck. This is a wonderful selection, lots that I would love to try on, but am trying so hard to be good this month…
