REDUCED Vintage costume Jewellery Demi Parure Set-Unusual Styling-Pretty in Pink

$45 USD ReducedREDUCED Vintage costume Jewellery Demi Parure Set-Unusual Styling-Pretty in Pink

Jewelry:Vintage:Costume:Demi Parures:Brooch:Earrings:Sets
I hadn’t seen anything like this awesome set before I stumbled across it while attending an estate sale and I’m still not sure quite what to make of them. To me, this set appears to depict pink fans ending in white marabou feathers, the brooch having eight sprays of these fans, each with it's own set of white beads that are all prong set while the matching earrings have three of these sprays. Now I ask you, is this my imagination? Don't be afraid to think so, I've been told that I'm always ...
REDUCED 1950's Hat-Summer Pleated Woven Straw Fabulous

$19 USD ReducedREDUCED 1950's Hat-Summer Pleated Woven Straw Fabulous

Clothing:By Period:1950's:Women's:Hat:Crystal:Pleating:Cello:Straw
As usual "What'll I Wear? Vintage!" is thrilled to offer something a little different. It amazes me how the hats of the 30's-70's are still around and kicking. When manufactured they were meant to be worn. I'm pretty sure no one expected them to last 30 to 60 years plus. I love vintage! This cream/tan chapeau is made from woven celluloid straw. A 2" wide light chocolate colored ribbon is formed into tiny accordion pleats and is wound around the outside of the brim, leaving the top bare. Inside, ...
REDUCED 1960's Black Velvet Cone Hat with a twist-Flamboyant

$14 USD ReducedREDUCED 1960's Black Velvet Cone Hat with a twist-Flamboyant

Clothing:Womens
We at "What'll I Wear? Vintage love hats. All kinds, all eras, all shapes and sizes. I admire the styles of the different decades and often think how natural and expected it was to wear a hat and how lucky the women of times past were, for that. It didn't seem to matter what the decoration or trimming, all ladies wore a hat. The 60's were a decade of new found freedoms and therefore flamboyancy took center stage. This is an example of this, in my opinion. It's a black cone hat, which on it's own ...

This cardigan/sweater is in excellent vintage condition with no beading missing as far as I can tell, and all the tags are intact. The maker label reads "Made in Hong Kong for B. Altman & Co. 5th. Aven. N.Y. 70% Lambs wool 20% Angora rabbit fur and 10% Nylon. The lining is 100% Nylon.

There is an awesome amount of white seed beads, (also some tiny faux pearl beads interspersed) ...

This high end costume earring and brooch set is absolutely stunning with it's vibrant emerald green, citrine and perfectly lovely lilac hues.

As is common with the aurora borealis stones, there are touches of elusive other tints depending on the ...

$60 USD ReducedREDUCED 1940's "Betty Rose Coats and Suits " 2 pc. Skirt/Jacket Stunning "Look Out Joan Crawford" "

Clothing:By Period:1940's:Women's:2 Piece:Suit:Skirt:Jacket
This absolutely top notch 2 piece skirt and jacket are not given justice with my rather amateur photography skills. It's the attention to details that make this suit so unique. The 4 panels at the back of the jacket give it that tell tale nipped waist so forties, as do the darts that run from shoulder to inside edge of the pocket. There is a second set of darts that run down from under the breast area to mid seam on the pocket. Speaking of pockets, these are amazing. As I don't know the proper ...

$15 USD ReducedREDUCED Vintage Brooch Sparkling Flower Aurora Borealis Sarah Coventry

Jewelry:Vintage:Pins/Brooches:1950's:1960's:Mid-century:Rhinestones:Aurora Borealis
This is such a lovely brooch that personally, I'd wear on a hat or a dinner dress, somewhere that it can be seen and flaunted. You are bound to receive compliments wherever you decide to wear it. This piece is a Sarah Coventry product which they named "Allusion" however the marking on the back is very difficult to make out so I was unable to take a pic. The petal outlines are layered and fashioned from a soft gold toned metal, each has a serrated edge. The long curved stem is also in the same ...

These are great gloves. The color is not too dark a navy, so they can be worn in the late afternoon as well as evening. They are a soft heavier weight fabric not silky nylon.
