Short Sleeve Oatmeal Cardigan with Pearl Detail

SOLD!


I bought this cardi in university and wore it a lot then. It's since fallen out of rotation, so it's time to find it a new home. 

It's modern Old Navy with tons of vintage style! It's incredibly soft and comfortable. The sleeves hit right above the elbow when worn.

Measurements

Bust: 35 1/2"
Bottom Rib (unstretched): 27"

Label: Old Navy
Size: Medium
Fabric Content: 80% Cotton, 20% Angora Rabbit Hair


Condition
Excellent - The fabric of this cardigan is in great shape, no pills, rips, tears or stains. A few of the pearl beads are a little loose, but still pretty secure and the finish is just starting to come off of a few of them on the side near the hole for the thread. These flaws are only noted so you aren't surprised, they do not effect the look of the sweater at all and are only noticeable on close inspection.

Price
$17 CAD

Jacob 3D Circle Black Tank Top

SOLD!



I got this top for Christmas a few years ago. I had asked for it. I really liked it on the hanger, but never really liked it on me.

The front of the tank is two layers. The under layer is jersey knit like the back. The overlay is mesh with satin circles stitched to it, giving it a 3D, sculptural effect. It is a size XS, but I am have a 36" bust and it fits me due to the stretch in the jersey knit. I have lightened these photos so you can see the detail. The black is rich and dark in person.

Measurements

Bust: 28-37"
Waist: 26-29"

Label: Jacob
Size: XS


Condition
Excellent - No rips, stains or tears. I've only worn this top twice and washed it once. It's in like new condition.

Pink Multi-Print Cotton Sundress

SOLD!


I couldn't resist the print combinations on this modern dress. It's a little shabby chic with a shot of bright colour in my opinion. I wore it layered in the winter with tights and a cardigan (like this) or as a bathing suit cover up in the summer. It's 100% cotton and incredibly lightweight and comfortable.

It's labelled a size medium, but due to the smocking at the waist and the full skirt that's more like a suggestion than a hard and fast rule. There is a lot of stretch in this dress. 
The straps are adjustable and I've added ribbon belt loops on each side which are still there. If you don't want them you could easily unstitch them. 

Measurements

Bust: 30-40"
Waist: 26-40"
Hips: Free

Size: Medium


Condition
Excellent - There are no rips, tears or stains on this dress. It's in great shape!

80's Black Suede Envelope Clutch

I bought this clutch because I was attracted to the rhinestone detail on it. I used it once and now it's time to pass it on. Once upon a time it had a removable strap, but it was missing when I bought it. 

I've lightened this photos a bit so you can see the detail better. The clutch is a nice true, rich black with no fading. 

Measurements

Length: 10 1/4"
Height: 6"

Label: Tony Molta  made in spain

Condition
Excellent - Clutch is in great condition with very minor wear along edges to suede. Original strap is missing.

50's Beaded Cream Clutch with Removable Strap

SOLD!





This clutch was given to me in a lot of stuff from my Mom's friend. It's still got it's original removable strap. I'm not gonna lie to you. It's seen better days. I've used it once, but thought maybe someone might want to use it or repair it or give it some new life. In my opinion it's got lots of potential. I've priced it according to it's condition.

Measurements

Length: 8"
Height: 5"
Depth: 1"
Strap Length: 14" 


Condition
Good - There are some beads missing along top edge by strap (visible in first photo- threads) as well as some beads missing on the back of the bag (see second photo). There is also some subtle staining on the front satin which is only noticeable in strong light (would not be noticed when taken out on the town at night). There is also a small stain on the bottom left back corner of the satin. There are also some small stains on the inner lining (see last photo). With some bead repair I believe this bag would be very usable. Or it would be great for a little girl's dress up box or for theatre.

$6 CAD

Red and White Polka Dot Peep Toe Slingbacks


These are modern shoes I bought and wore once or twice, but they stretched out a bit too much and they slip off my feet now. It pains me to sell them. They're adorable and have lots of pin-up style. 

These shoes are labelled a size 8 1/2, which they were when I bought them, but the vamps and the strap at the back have stretched a bit. I would say these are more like a large 8 1/2 to a small size 9 now. 

Measurements

Length: 10"
Width: 3 1/2"
Heel Width: 2"
Heel Height: 4"

Label: Classified
Size: 8 1/2

Condition
Excellent - There are a few very very minor scratches along the sides of the shoes. They are barely noticeable. Otherwise these shoes are in like-new condition.
