Pink Preview

A full outfit post will come soon, but I just wanted to show a few photos of this lovely dress.  My sister in-law found it on eBay and gifted it to me, and I'm dying for an opportunity to wear it.  (Although, I must admit that it fits better with an empty stomach...)

It's a gorgeous satiny 1930s-40s style,with a mermaid-style skirt and a draped top.  I'm assuming it's vintage repro or something handmade.

Someone, quick, throw a party so I can wear this!  :)

Antique finds


Oh, look what I got!  A gift from Mr. Williams yesterday.  He took a trip to an antique store and brought me, among other antique odds and ends, a recipe book for an automatic frypan, copyright 1953.  (Yes, I'm pleased by random gifts, even for outdated kitchen appliances.  They're adorable!)
Here are some more photos....
