I'm in love with this 1950s peignoir / gown set!

Happy Friday! I had to share this delicious little gown and robe set, Kayser 1950s in a pale baby blue--check out the unique embroidered bodice on this!

Ooh, to be tiny enough to wear the vintage goodies I've found! I honestly feel like Sasquatch as I realize I'm 4 inches too tall, have feet 4 sizes too big, and have eaten too many cheeze doodles to ever fit in 90% of my stash...like this too gawgeous 1920s garden dress with the 36" bust (HA!)

Check out the jeweled little "belt" on it--all original. It was my first "old" find. I know it'll never fit *sigh* but I've been holding it for some time and just can't part with it, you know?

Who's going to be the first vintage lover to visit?

I think I'll be so excited when my first fan-of-vintage posts to tell me how much they love vintage! If someone posts in the next two hours I'll send them some freebie vintage goodies just for saying hi! So be the first then email an addy to send it to (overseas bloggers welcome too!)

Finally getting started here

OK, I'm terribly slow, but now I'm ready to run. First off, I want to welcome all collectors, buyers, sellers or newbies of vintage. Tell me about your favorite finds, your favorite online/B&M stores, or ask questions.
I am having a Secret Saturday Sale to kick things off today--20% off everything in my Etsy store today only--combined shipping for multiples. I believe in keeping vintage affordable.
