Swimsuits with Ava Gardner

Looking for a vintage bathing suit this summer? I'm sure Ava Gardner could give you some ideas. I love every swimsuit I've ever seen her in! Here are just a few. Which is your favorite?

Back from the land of Vintage Clothes

Wow, I'm so behind in blogging! I did put a ton of new vintage clothing, swimsuits, etc on my website though! If you would like more info on any of the items, just click on my link near the top left of the blog. Here are a few of the pics. There's a 1950's sun suit, a 1920's dress, a black 1950's swimsuit with red buttons, a 1960's dress with pink flowers, and a pink 50's party dress.

Besides that, I've been hitting up a lot of antique malls, which is probably one of my favorite things in the world to do! What can I say, I love old stuff. Oh, and I also picked up a depression glass powder container with a little deer figure on top. It's one of the cutest things I've ever seen!

New Vintage Stuff!

I've collected some great vintage accessories over the last week! My favorite is my 1940's shoes! They're black suede wedge platforms, and they're in perfect condition. I can't wait to wear them out! Next is my cute little lucite purse! It's a clear clutch purse, with lots of rhinestones decorating the front of it. So pretty. Lastly, an antique galalith bracelet. It's so beautiful! Now I need some new vintage clothes to go with my latest purchases! I've bid on so much clothing on Ebay lately, but I keep getting outbid in the last couple seconds! I think I may just have to hit up the local vintage stores this weekend :)

1950's Vintage Gloves

I got some great new vintage gloves this week! They're black and about medium length, and should look perfect with the grey 50's jacket my husband bought me! Does anyone else wear gloves? I try to as often as possible, but half the time I forget to wear them!

Vintage in Vegas!

I love coming home from a vacation with more vintage clothes then I packed! Viva Las Vegas was so much fun, and I picked up some great stuff! Included in my purchases were a black 1950's swimsuit with red buttons, a striped 50's bikini and an adorable 50's summer top! I will try to post some pics asap! I also came home to a beautiful lucite purse and 50's prom gown I had ordered off Ebay. Vintage in the mail is the best! Above is a photo of Betty Grable in Las Vegas in 1954. She's so cute!

Viva Las Vegas 2009!

Im off again! Vegas this time! There will be lots of vintage clothes, 50's music, classic cars, and partying of course! Oh, and I almost forgot, my Mom! Her and my stepfather are meeting us there, so it should be a lot of fun! See you when I get back!

More Vintage Goodies

I've been having lots of luck lately! Finding more and more vintage clothes all the time. Hopefully it keeps up. First I found a glamorous 1960's coat with a mink collar. It's in perfect condition too! Next I found a gorgeous 60's cocktail dress. It's a golden yellow color with chiffon bodice and sleeves. So pretty. Lastly, my first 1930's bathing suit! Most of my swimsuits are from the 50's, so this my new favorite.
