30s & 40s Obsession and A Tiny Shop Update!

Like I had brought up in my last couple posts, I recently had the pleasure to visit a home with 3 decades of vintage clothing. This outfit is from that home and probably my favorite! 
I love that I can wear a 30s or 40s dress that is slightly too big and it still looks okay. Now that I have my pin curls and rag curls down, I have been more likely to trade my 50s frocks for something a little older. But don't worry, I can never give up the 50s! The other thing you may notice is my lack of red lipstick. I thought this look needs something softer, so I opted for just a little balm on the lips free pf color. It was quite freeing, however a little strange to look in the mirror and not see red lips!

A Special Shop Update

The next few days will be shop updates that will make you absolutely giddy! I have never been so lucky to have so many special pieces in Dethrose Vintage at once. Over the next few days I will be listing items than came from the same home and I got a brief history lesson on each piece from the woman they belonged to. I hope you all love them as much as I did!
