Some Vintage dresses for me, me, me!


This week, I bought a new camera, and shipped the broken one back to Nikon to see if it can still be fixed before the warranty runs out (on 3/26, cutting it close) So I was without a camera most of the week. The new camera came when I was in bed with a migraine, so I didn't get to play with it until the next day. I think I like it so far, I have to mess around with the setting a little more, and wait for the sun to shine a little more.
I used the new camera (Kodak C875) to snap some shots of a few of the dresses that I bought recently, on ebay of all places! Yes, a good buy from good sellers can still be found on ebay. Here are 4 super cute 50s Summer dresses that I snagged - grey chambray with striped pockets, pink stripes with tulips, a fabulous Swirl wrap dress (love them Swirls!) and a cool speckled floral print dress.
The dress below is 1940s and is unworn with tags. It's pretty cool, it's a 'Mickey Around the House Dress' - pullover, cut straight down the side with ties on the front of the waist. It has a coupon attached inside of the neck for one of it's labels. You could collect the label-coupons and trade them in for quilt squares. Isn't that cool? The original price was $2.39.

OK, so after I hem these dresses (and shave my legs) I'll be ready for Summer!

Those are cute dresses. I always wondered what kind of wardrobe a vintage clothing seller would have, and how often they wear vintage.
