****SOLD**** A 'villainess' pair of Disney mugs: $10


****SOLD****
Cruella de Vil. I can't even THINK the name without her song starting up in my head. And as for Ursula, well, it was pretty disturbing to this eleven year old when this purple tentacular villainess bongoed her considerable behind from side to side and sang out, "And don't underestimate the importance of BODY LANGUAGE, hah!"
I appreciate both of these stylish & powerful ladies in a whole new way now.
AND you can drink hot beverages out of their heads.
Price: $10 for the pair

****SOLD**** Small 80s off-white purse: $10

****SOLD**** Vintage triple-strand faux pearl necklace: $20

****SOLD****
There are two schools of thought on the wearing of pearls. The delicate (Jackie O in a kerchief and a pendant) and the bold (Madonna, 80s, torn lace and layers of pearls). The three-strander pictured above manages to sit right between the two. Worn with a classic black sheath, the faux pearls serve to highlight and frame your face. Worn with a faded jean jacket and kickin' print frock, the necklace is MTV ready! I particularly enjoy its iridescent sheen.
Price: $20

****SOLD**** Vintage 80s fluttersleeve blouse, M: $15

****SOLD****
This blouse was made by an Indian tailor for my fiance's mother while they were living in Dubai back in the early 80s. It has an elasticized panel in the middle of the back, at the waist, which cinches the waist in nicely. The short flutter sleeves are comfortable & ideal for light layering. The aqua, pink and pale orange abstract print is very very 80s :) Would look very nice tucked into a high-waisted pale skirt, or worn obi-belted over
flowy trousers.
Size: medium
Price: $15

****SOLD**** Vintage crinoline S/M: $20

****SOLD****
As much as I enjoy the look of a swingy mod trapeze dress, I've long since resigned myself to the fact that 5'2" & curvy looks stumpy & sad in anything without a defined waistline. Hurrah for defined waistlines, I say! In that vein, I present to you this vintage white crinoline. It falls to mid-calf and has an elasticized waist for comfort. I'd say it would fit a range of size 4 to 9.
Price: $20

****SOLD**** Brass candlestick: $10

****SOLD****
This brass candle holder immediately brings to mind a tattered book of illustrated nursery rhymes that I loved. "Jack be Nimble" was a bright eyed mouse who frolicked around a candlestick much like the one above. This one even has a small flame extinguisher!
Price: $10

****SOLD**** Extraordinary clip on-earrings: $10

****SOLD**** Vintage gold-tone, rhinestone & faux pearl necklace: $15

****SOLD****
One of the many mental style notes I've made during my Mad Men marathon viewings was this, "a simple well-cut dress can go from ho-hum to va-va-voom with the addition of the right necklace." Give this vintage beauty (rhinestones and faux pearls, oh my!) a spin with your go-to frock, see how it fares!

****SOLD****
If you're anything like me, you leave the gym a wild-haired, schweaty faced mess.
Your bag doesn't have to match your disheveled glory :)
This is a hella stylish red & off-white leather gym bag. It definitely has some scuff marks, but a lot of them can be taken care of with some elbow grease and mild detergent.
Price: $20

****SOLD**** Side or telephone table: $15

****SOLD****
Sturdy little wood telephone table. Would make a nice night stand (plenty of space for a lamp, alarm clock and books!) or side table (next to a couch or armchair). There are some scratches on the surface but its in otherwise excellent condition. I've been thinking of slapping a coat of paint on it, like this
DIY project, but have run out of room!

So many adorable details to love about this small vintage gold purse! From the rhinestone fruit snap closure, to the peach pink satin interior, to the teensy change purse, attached.

****SOLD**** Avon crystal cut glass lidded butter dish, 1970s: $15

****SOLD****
This is a very pretty cut glass lidded butter dish, sold by Avon in 1973. The diamond & starburst pattern really catches the light beautifully.
Can be used for its original purpose, however I'd have a hard time keeping something so pretty tucked out of sight and would be tempted to use it to hold candy or small cookies.
Price: $15
