It’s an AMAZING week over on ebay…

Posted in Uncategorized by liztregenza

Today my blog post is all about sharing some of the BEAUTIFUL pieces I currently have listed on ebay. This week is a SERIOUS week. I have over 50 high quality pieces on offer this week. More than I am likely to have for a considerably amount of time again as I have pretty much depleted the “stocks” of clothing both Naomi and I have!

So, here are a *few* of the highlights…. because I couldn’t have a post showing you all 50 of course : )

A stunning 1950s day dress with some of THE biggest patch pockets I’ve ever seen. This is such a bright and cheerful dress.

Delightful 50s swimsuit (just look at the darling puffy bits to the sides). This is PURE pin up. Sigh.

One of the best floral dresses from my collection. This 50s number by Ladycourt is the current image for my facebook header on the Advantage-In-Vintage page. It has one of THE fullest skirts of any 50s dress in my collection.

Another of mine This 50s blue floral dress comes with both its original belt AND jacket.

A rare late 50s Horrockses dress. This number is in linen. Quite different for a Horrockses!

This luxury cc41 coat has a beautiful bakelite buckle and some of the most delightful construction techniques I’ve seen in a while.

This WONDERFUL early Biba ensemble. It comprises of high waisted REALLY flared trousers and a top with huge angel like sleeves. A really difficult ensemble to photograph but it really is an example of Biba at its best.

AND, I’ve save the best till last. This amazing Celia Birtwell print Ossie Clark for Radley dress. The dress is (I believe) one of Celia’s tartan heart prints. The bouqet style of the print is one she started using in around 1972. And, the satiny details were very popular in this year too hence why I am guessing this year!

Because I want some new shoes…

Posted in Uncategorized by liztregenza

It’s got to that time of year when more practical (or rather more enclosed) shoes need to be worn. It has now got far too cold to wear my favourite Miss L Fire carnivale shoes and ballet pumps all the time!

Here are a few pairs of shoes I’ve come across whilst wandering around the internet that I absolutely love! Oh if only for that funny thing called money…

Blue bird multi suede- £65 Office

These also come in black. Great height for all day wear!

Black sparkly flats from Call it spring $40.00

Art deco inspired shoes. I pretty much want every pair of shoes in Miss L Fire’s autumn winter collection. These though are pretty sensational.

NEW vintage dress love!!!

Posted in Uncategorized by liztregenza

I simply MUST MUST MUST share the latest dress added to my collection!

I saw this come up on Ebay a few weeks ago and when i saw the waist measurement (23inches I.e. my perfect fit), the stunning tulip print, and the label (Victor Josselyn) I HAD to have it! iI reckon its a very early 60s number. I have a few other Josselyns and they are always lovely quality cotton, this one didn’t disapoint.
