Moving sale

I'm moving across the country (from DC to San Francisco), so I'm having a moving sale this week (7/9 to 7/15). Everything in my shop is 25% off!

Here are a couple of new summer items that are part of the sale:

My new dress form!

A few weeks ago I bought a dress form. I had been holding off because I really wanted a vintage Wolf form. They're high quality, and I wanted something a little worn since I sell vintage clothing. But they're hard to find, expensive, and even more expensive when you calculate in shipping price. But finally, I found one at a very reasonable price being sold by someone in Philadelphia (only a couple hours away), so my husband and I went to pick it up ourselves. Here's a picture:

My wedding (and yes, vintage clothing)

Something I want to do on my blog is to share items from my own personal collection of vintage clothing. And I thought the perfect place to start would be my wedding dress. To make a long story short, this was actually the third wedding dress (yes, I know) that I bought for my wedding this past summer. I wasn't looking for it (since I already had two other dresses), but I walked into a local vintage clothing shop, I saw it hanging on the wall, and I knew I had to try it on. When I saw myself in the mirror, I had one of those moments you see on shows like "Say Yes to the Dress." I started tearing up, and then I thought, "I am beautiful," and then, "this is the dress for my wedding." It was a moment that my pragmatic, anti-WIC self wasn't looking for or expecting.
