In my junkin travels this weekend, I found a vintage flappers dress. The owner of the store said she found the dress in a steamer trunk with a bunch of others. Its not fringie, but is a sheer chocolate brown with a chenille pattern in it. It fits me, and I'm a size 14, but its super tight. I'm thinking a size 8-12 (if your not too busty) would look killer in this. It also has gusseted sheer in the leg area, my guess is to allow more leg kicks! I'll sell it for $10 or barter. Let me know if you want me to bring it to BBB..... its sooooooo killer.

Flappers weren't known to be too well-endowed, were they?! I'd like to see a pic, too, Dawn! I love that era!

HI girls!
I am just about ready to leave for work but will try to post a pic on my blog tonight. I may need reminded! tee hee! I for the life of me cannot figure out how to post pics here so the blog is the best way for me.
Dutchy: even tho you and I have not yet corresponded, in my junkin travels I see so many things that pertain to your heritage. If you collect any of this, let me know as I'd be more than happy to ship it off to you!
Okay, okay, on the way to work...ugh.

Hmmmm.... I'm pretty easy! Ilove handmade soap, or vintage linens (pillow cases, hankies, etc). I like buttons. Fabric. I will post a pic tonight (late, wont be home until around 8pm EST) so ya'll can look at it and decide tomorrow.

Dawn I am sure I can put together a goodie box to swap with you. The dress sounds devine sight unseen and we love vintage clothing in our house. So if Molly & Cherry decide they don't want it I definitly will. However, I will wait my turn in the "line" for it. Just let me know!!

It's adorable but I think I'll give someone else the opportunity to take it home and love it  Thanks for putting the picture up, Dawn!
