This pretty Seventies sweater is made by Banff – a company that has made high-quality knit clothing for women for several decades. Sweaters, suits, jackets, ponchos, etc. I picked this up very recently, mostly on the strength of the brand name (and, it’s awfully cute, too . . . . . .. )
I can never resist (nor do I want to!) beautiful lingerie from the Fifties and Sixties, especially when the brand name is not one I see frequently. This lovely half-slip was made by Dorsay. The nylon has a wonderful feel and quality, and the applique’ embroidery is gorgeous.
Last, but not least, is a 1960’s bed jacket by Shadowline. Their mid-priced lingerie and sleepwear is never over-the-top, but their designs are attractive and I can always count on the quality. Worth it, every time.

You know that I go mostly for the 1960’s and before, but once in a while I get seduced by some true vintage retro from the Seventies or Eighties. Well, it happened again a couple of days ago.
Thrill, thrill, thrill – I love finding these guys!! Bless your hearts, 1940’s women. You took such good care of your shoes!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is a little off my usual track, but had to show you. I’ve been scanning the radar for these for a while and, voila’! They need a little TLC, but that’s easy. They are in fabulous condition for their age and, as usual, they were a steal . . . . . .
This fabulous 100% cotton dress was made in West Germany, obviously before 1989 and maybe many years before that. Yes, it’s another new find that’s out-of-season right now in North America and most of Europe, but I love, love, love this anyway and couldn’t wait to show it!
I’ve just found several lovely handbags and will show them to you over the next few days. Remember, I promised that there will be several warm-weather items coming along with the more seasonal (for the northern hemisphere) kinds of things.
