wasnt sure where to put this but, yesterday I went w/ my sister to look for shops that sell only vintage stuff. I love anything vintage especially skirts & sweaters. Well, I found the most beautiful long flowing vintage skirt I have ever seen anywhere. It has soft muted colors of pinks, creams & sage green all through it w/ silver beads & sequince. It sounds a bit loud but it isn't, it beautiful. I can't wait for summer to wear it. I love vintage & bohimian styles & didn't wear it because I thought I was too old!! Well, I am not. Its femine & soft and I love wearing skirts in the summer especially. Im going to take a picture of it and try to put it on here w/ my husbands help. It's just so different & beautiful. What a great day it was.

Sounds so lovely! My fave are vintage sweaters...absolutely can not get enough of them. They are so easy to throw on over a t-shirt with jeans, over a tank in the summer evenings..whatever. We should go shopping together someday..wish you were closer!

I'm not very computer savy either, but when you have the picture(s) developed, can't they be put on disk? I've only posted photos once, and they were on a disk and I followed Gabe's directions here and that worked. That's just a guess. Hopefully, someone else here really knows the answer.

Hey, Michele! You're probably not as old as I am(it seems fewer and fewer people are, these days!) But the way I see it, if we 'invented' these styles in the 70's, then we have the 'cred' to keep on wearing them. The only thing I think I'm too old for are teeny tiny short skirts. But then, maybe I never had the legs for those, anyhow. :) Have your dh take a picture of YOU in your beautiful skirt!

I'm agree with all the vintage, etc. I love it all. Especially using something for other then its intended use. I have an old metal grain scoop, that I use for a utensil holder on my kitchen counter. Wish I could take the claim for the idea, but got it from the Junk Market girls. Looking forward to the picture!!! |

Those unexpected finds are the best! And thoughts of that beautiful skirt will take you through the cold and dreary days of winter (although in St. Louis is was nearly 60 degrees today)!
