Vintage Pretties
Thursday, February 19, 2009
Waking up late on a Saturday morning and then spending hours walking around tables and displays of mishmashes at thrift stores in search of vintage treasures is my idea of heaven. Unfortunately I don't always get a chance to do it, but luckily these places offer very much the next best thing...

Thank you for great images and the links, love them all!
I adore the dress... ooo...
i like the second photo.. for some reason i keep staring at her watch. the dress is nice too. i have had trouble posting comments on your blog this week... my computer is running unusually slow.

beautiful photographs. My mom has some photos like those of her and her sisters. Isn't in interesting how classy and beautiful those are, for some reason they are not cheesy. If we were to do it today it would be challenging to match the elegance of these (i think). Love that dress, flowy and fabulous. Happy shopping.
loooove the dress!
Gorgeous post, Gabbi! Love the photos and illustrations, and that dress is TOO lovely!

Hope you're having a nice weekend.

Great finds! I love going to flea market; especially during the the spring when its just starting to warm up. I thought we were getting closer but awoke to snow today...
Just lovely Gabbi! The two photos are very pretty and the frock is very chic! I wish I had the guts and chutzpah to get dolled up in fine clothes like that everyday!
The dresses are so perfect. The other photos are as well. I love them all!
Lovely things Gabbi!!
I love that dress. I would have that as a wedding gown if I could.

~ That's very true Laura, I took a photo like that once when I was in my very early 20's with a boyfriend :) now it's a small source of embarrassment. Thank you!

~ Thank you dearest Sam, I wish I was a bit more girly in my everyday wear too. I’m sure you’re attire is very pretty though. How could it not with all those gorgeous girl inspirations you draw? Hope you had a lovely weekend.

~ I thought the same thing dear Dooder! In fact I emailed it to a friend who is designing her own Wedding gown on Friday for inspiration! :)

and btw, the patterns look like they are from the 70s, 80s and 90s!
