Very glad I have approval! Now I need to think about shoes.. what would be best? Garden wedding in summer (although British so prepared for wet grass, have made a mistake of the heel sinking variety in the past!)
I shall start looking, any ideas welcomed.... :D
Well done Roxy - I think it sounds great, and you've given a far more thorough condition report than you often get which is very encouraging for bidders.
Sure they will do well, it just takes a while for people to notice things at first I think :USETHUMBUP:
I'm glad I have your support too :) LOL! Sorry disappeared off last night with a headache (just as my listings ended on eBay, so perfect timing when I had invoices to sort :() but am back on form today. Will be sure to post pictures when I get her/him!
The war of attrition has been won by me.. :D Husband well and truly in agreement. Our scrappy mongrel is now 6 years old and feeling lonely, so when we get back from holiday in 3 weeks we shall begin looking in earnest (obviously I have already been looking, but cautiously!)
I'm very...
Hi Lynn,
Yes I did, and I have had all sorts of trouble with her but I do like the way she looks. It was a cheapy I think (while still sold as good quality!) and the heavy chrome base was spot welded to the pole, and immediately snapped.
I need a new one really, I had to get my Dad to...
Looks later to me, 1980s? Very cosy looking ..with the storm clouds gathering that's just what I want right now over here in the UK!
So there are two identical sashes?
And yes I can imagine that hat with a matching mac, 1960s vote here!
See, I am being more organised and this actually counts as an official sneak preview!
More coming Sunday night too... (Surely these newfound organisational skills can't last!? :D)
Agree on your dating myself. Do you know my reference as far as magazines etc. is concerned has a great big gap from 1962 to about 1970!
Which means I am no help at all as far as evidence goes! Infact I advertised on Freecycle (addicted) for old magazines to even photocopy for reference from...
You know I am going to ask for a picture.. :D Aside from that I do associate that type of thing with the dates already offered up.
Talk about getting lost in stuff when tidying - I always get teased for that, as all my tidy up attempts (especially sideboards and drawers) end up with me...
Sara, a consistent buying habit over 10 years or so seems to have left me with a few too many (as if you can ever have too many - but still!) ;)
I've tried to list a few more realistically sized ones this coming week - I always think when I put things up with a 24" waist 'no one will bid on...
This went up last night (Sunday), along with the pretty cotton sundress I asked about earlier in the week.
I have a ton more full skirted 50s dresses coming up this week (Wednesday and Sunday) :USETHUMBUP: Am really trying hard to create some room... and will try to remember to post...
Oh drat, I missed it too! Glad it went to Linda though :)
May have to bid on 60s heals style dress though! :D Great stuff Deborah (I like the 70s top too - oh well let's face it I like everything!)
It is tricky - I have had a few of my own things where I knew they would fit me with a little less opening, then have wiggled the teeth back in (no real skill, just much wriggling!) and then put a safety pin across on the inside to stop it coming off again/going right to the bottom. I have had...
Sorry, have been at the dog rescue place all day.. :BAGUSE:
My parents best friends are getting married in June (finally! they have been together for 30 years but aren't particularly conventional), and I did have an outfit picked out but I think this may have to replace it!
I bought this on ebay (auction) a few weeks ago, along with a few other things. It was one of those risky dark picture no description things for all of them ,and unfortunately the sellers idea of 'looks unworn' was obviously to shove everything in the washing machine and not iron them, causing...
