Recent Etsy Purchase...

I've mentioned it before but for those of you new followers I'd like to state that I am cheap to a fault sometimes.For a very long time I've been lamenting over needing stretching headbands to wear,especially at night when I wash my face,put on mask,creams and all that other beauty jazz that comes with being a lady.My decorative ones just were not cutting it.Bangs can be just a pain sometimes.

I'd go to the store and see some but they were too wide and I couldn't quite bring myself to pay the $4 for one.It seemed like a rip off,its just a stretchy piece of fabric.Fortunately I stumbled across
AccessoryAddiction on etsy!For $5.00 I got 7 headbands!What I was looking for and for cheap,deadstock AND vintage?Check and mate!

They work great for getting my bangs out of my face and also for days like I'm having today...you know those lovely days as a mother when you and your hair realize it needs a shower but the kids don't.I like that I can use these as an alternative to my scarves for those days and pull off a 60's-ish do with them.I love my scarves but I feel like when I wear them my husband sees me in them now and is just like "hey you must need to wash your hair",Ha!

St-St-St-Stockings!

I hate pantyhose,they are probably one of the most unattractive things I can think of when it comes to clothing.I mean really who thought of it?I should find them and kick them in the shin.I love stockings.Paired with a garter belt they look amazing and even if you just have them pulled up to your thigh they're still way more comfortable than stockings.

I have some deadstock ones in my Etsy shop right now,both boxes have 2 pairs in each box.They are in a yummy cocoa color which is unfortunate for me,my legs are so white they're translucent so I can't quite get away with them... but maybe you can?
