The 'Divine Diva' Vintage Giveaway!



Hey, it's about time for another giveaway, isn't it? This is a very good giveaway with 4 great items.

Anyone can enter to win, just post a comment below or send an email to dvintage@comcast.net
A winner will be chosen on July 26th, which is a Monday.

This drawing will include the book 'Bette & Joan The Divine Feud' - I just read this and I loved it! There is juicy gossip (Joan was kinda slutty) and catty, bitchy remarks on nearly every page of the book.

Also is a 1930s  small pillow cover made of dusty peach and teal silk matte satin petals. It has an opening in the back to slide in a 7-1/2 inch pillow.




Next is a dark pink crochet thingy, probably from the 1930s as well. The inside section is peach acetate and it is stuffed. I don't know if it was a pin cushion or what because it is meant to hang. It also reminds me of those things that you would see boudoir or kewpie dolls attached to, kind of lounging on the top.



Lastly is a very cool 1950s travel set. It's a soft clear plastic bag with a painted fan and rhinestones on the front. It snaps on the back. Inside are 3 containers with plastic faux pearl tops, and a brush and comb. Excellent, the items look like they were never used.

7/1 Stock purchase, lots of goodies


I made a large stock purchase on Thursday July 1st. About 100 pieces of clothing and accessories. Most items are Victorian to the 1920s, with about 25 pieces from the 1940-50s. Lots of Victorian and Edwardian whites, a few silk dresses, lingerie, walking skirts, some children's clothing etc. Here are pictures of some of the pieces. The 1940-50s items are day dresses and blouses. Most items are good sizes. The older pieces do have flaws of course. There are some really nice pieces in the lot.

It's going to take me several weeks to get through everything, so please have patience if you see something that you like. I haven't evaluated the sizes and conditions of each piece yet. Whenever I buy a large load of stock like this, I usually start with some easy pieces, so that I can get them listed quickly and start making my money back. I was already working on 10 day dresses before I bought this lot, so I'll be working on those for the next update first, and then I'll start pulling some pieces from this lot to start listing. I'm at the shore for the 4th of July holiday, but I brought a bag of clothing with me to handwash and hang out to dry. So you'll probably see some of those items first and I think I'll start with the 1920s dresses and lingerie too.

No update this week because of the holiday, so check back for new stuff next week.
