Vintage Nautical Clothing And Decor Are More Prevalent Than I Had Thought!

When I had started my vintage and antiques website, I had thought it would be more difficult to find a wide range of vintage items with an ocean, or nautical theme. But I have found it to be quite the opposite. Vintage jewelry, clothing, accessories, linens, and home decor, are more prevalent, especially in this area! As my nautical website grows, so will its' 'sister' blog! I do think...this pair of lovely mermaids represent the idea of my website quite… Continue

Poems, Clothing, Clotheslines

Clothing can be a form of self expression, like poetry

...but do the two ever cross?

Your favorite shirt, the jacket of your first boyfriend in high school, your first baby socks kept in a pretty box for safe keeping -- items of clothing travel with us throughout our lives, a silent, comfy companion. Do you ever feel this way? There are actually many odes and dedicated poetry to clothing that can be found if you just take a peek.

Ode…

Creative ways to dress vintage when everything seems like a small size.

I'm continuing my search for creative ways to deal with and find vintage clothing that fits large or plus size. I know I have searched through the years for something to fit and have had to use my sense of humor and a little creative sewing. I'm writing an article about this and need some feedback. I will gladly post whatever information or suggestions I find so all can benefit.

So my question is - How do you dress in vintage when you feel like everything you find is small… Continue

Plus Size Vintage Clothing - Does it exist ?

I recently posted the question - "What do you consider a Plus Size in vintage clothing?" here on the vintage village and on the etsy forum. I was surprised by the enthusiastic response and the differences in opinion especially when it comes to stores marking size 14 as a plus size. Consensus seems to be that… Continue

Monday's Picks

I guess pick could be a play on words. I have always loved antique combs...the more elaborate, the better. They are great to have out on a dressing table just for decoration. I have long hair but not enough to keep one of these in place.…

Questions about sizing

Hello everyone! Hopefully someone can help me out. I've got all the measurements for my items listed in their descriptions, but thanks to some constructive feedback, I would like to separate them on the basis of small, medium, large, etc. This is primarily for my dresses. As sizes vary, what would be the best way to go about doing this? Does anyone have a chart in which I can determine based on the measurements of the garments?

Thank you!
