I know there are lots of vintage lingerie lovers out there who like to collect and display their pretty underthings.... The problem I've found, I am sure you have too is that they are all so incredibily small... I couldn't get them for love or money! Not just in the foundation department, but vintage clothing in general.
I found this beautiful bustier top while shopping at Charlotte Russe the other day.... So yummy!
There's so, so much detail and it's *almost* as pretty an old one.... The price was right, I couldn't resist!
I think I'll end up pairing mine with a granny cardigan and sweater chain or maybe the vintage tapesty print swing coat I have in my closet... 'Cause you know this alone would be a bit too risqué for me to wear on it's own... Wh
This is completly unrelated, but while I was cleaning up the basement the other day, I found my old tiara in a dresser we no longer use. I wore it on my wedding day. I thought it was gone for good! So nice when things reapear after years... although not how it usually goes for me! I'll be back soon with more fesive posts!
Finding those vintage look alikes are always so much fun! A cute cardi always looks good. Have fun wearing it out on the town with your hubby!

Very pretty. I know, things are so small from years ago. I have a vintage wedding dress in my living room, and it must be a minus size!! It is so small! These things are so fun to display though dont you think? Amy
