Spectator style, black and white – always classic, always right.
A pair of, low-heeled classic quasi-spectator-style Mod pumps. Black and white is always “in”, and is always de la mode. Very practical for any Sixties – era outfit. You can also dance the night away in comfort.
This pair is by the famous maker Florsheim, a quality name for decades. Looks great Spring, Summer or Fall. Probably in Winter, too. A classic’s a classic, right?

LOVE these soft, almost-sheer cotton blend fabrics that were used for little everyday blouses in the Fifties and early Sixties! This cute little number has very pretty machine embroidery all down the front.
It’s a waist-length style, with vents at the hem on both sides. Pearlized buttons with stems and cute short sleeves. There was a label, though it’s missing, but as is often seen in true vintage items of quality, some of the details have still been done by hand.
Plus, in perfect condition! I’ll really enjoy this one!!!!!!!!!!

Just another plain old skirt, right? Wrong. Why? . . . . . . . .
This skirt, of pretty wool fabric, is fully lined with a deep hem finished with hem tape. It fits like a dream – the darts are in the right places and the waist is well – proportioned instead of being way too big.
The hook and eye above the zipper close securely and stay closed. Classic and elegant – just the way a quality garment should be made. No wonder it’s been around for fifty years, Whenever I discover one, I nab it!

I just LOVE discovering garments like this!! So old – in such good condition – so cute and detailed – my size . . . . . . .
A Depression – World War II era pretty frock for dancing, dining or partying. Black crepe, belted, with ruffles at the hem, sleeves and bodice. Lace overlay and pink blossoms at the decolletage. Little shoulder pads. Hard to imagine that it was custom-tailored, but there’s no label remaining. A bit girly for my taste, but when it comes to true vintage I don’t quibble.
Just like so many of the dresses I see in the old movies that I love! So, another example of what makes life so much fun . . . . . . . . . . . .
