Plus Sized Vintage For Under $50...

One of the number one complaints I here from my fellow vintage lovers is finding vintage in larger sizes and when you do it cost an arm and a leg.I may not be plus size but I think we all share the frustration of finding an amazing vintage dress and realizing that the waist is a mere 24 inches...unless you have a 24 inch waist.If you do then congrats for the world of vintage dresses is your oyster.

I'm sitting here right now working on my etsy shop which means I'm also browsing cause face it,if you work on a computer for a living the sirens call to internet window shop is just too strong to ignore sometimes.I thought I'd put my slacking to good use and show off some of the vintage plus size items I've come across in my internet window shopping excursions that won't cost you an arm and a leg.

Fashion Designer Lilly Pulitzer Passes Away....

Sad news this Sunday to find iconic fashion designer Lilly Pulitizer has passed away.When I first started getting into vintage clothing around the time I was in Jr. High I was originally into very retro fashions of the 60's and 70's so "Lilly's" were right up my alley.The fact that Jackie O wore them also helped as I admired her style from an early age.

Lilly was 81 when she passed.She left a beautiful,cheerful,colorful mark on the world and I'm sure won't be forgotten.For those of  you that have a vintage piece of clothing from her cherish it a little more now.
