or Just because I love that age!

Maybe it's because mom and dad started making all us kids in the 40s, or maybe it's that super flattering tailored look, or maybe it's the shoulders (that I longingly miss)..... or maybe its gaberdine, my love, but whatever -

GORGEOUS STUFFS! Here's some goodies from my store:

Some are online now, some are only in the B&M store inventory. ...but we're working on that! :love008:
