New Etsy Listing: Vintage Grecian Goddess/Hostess Gown







Maxine's a vision as she opens her double doors to receive her guests in this lovely, silky-feel hostess dress by Butterfield 8!

This dress is done in regal shades of purple and a sort of violet/lavender, and it features beautiful Grecian-style embroidered trim on the cuffs, bodice, and waist. It's also got a daring, high slit on the left thigh - you might consider a slip or some sort of pettipants if you wear this out to a party, but I'll leave that up to you! :)

It's marked a size small, but please refer to the measurements below to ensure a proper fit:

Shoulder: 15"
Bust: 18" (double)
Waist: 13" (double, NO stretch)
Hip: Free
Sleeve: 23"
Length: 52.5" shoulder to hem


https://www.etsy.com/listing/183841156/vtg-70s-silky-nylon-maxihostess-dress-in?ref=shop_home_active_4

Price:  $27.99 plus $6.00 shipping.

Thanks for looking!

Listing of the day: Earth Angel Cream Maxi-Dress - Size 18 (Modern 14)

https://www.etsy.com/listing/127955503/vtg-70s-dark-cream-angel-dress-wchiffon










 
When I was dressing Maxine in this breathtaking dress, I couldn't help but hum "Earth Angel!"

We present, for your approval, a lovely gown by "Changes." It's dark cream in color, and it features huge chiffon angel sleeves, and a beautiful rosette on the bodice. The trim is dark brown, and it has an empire waistline.

It's marked a vintage size 18. To me, it seems to translate into a modern 14, but please refer to the measurements below to ensure a proper fit:

Shoulder: 16.5"
Bust: 19" (double)
Waist: 17" (double)
Hip: 21" (double)
Sleeve: 23"
Length: 57"
 
This dress is in a rare plus-size, and would look beautiful at a wedding or a party!
 
Price:  $89.99 plus $8.95 US shipping.
 
Thanks for looking!

Recent Etsy Sales - Sorry for long absence!

 Sorry for being away and neglecting this blog for so long, but I started back to school in January, and since it's algebra, it's required a HUGE effort on my part since math has always been my Achilles heel!  I've recently sold these items on Etsy, and just wanted to share some pics before I delete them (pics take up so much room on my computer, and I like to delete the photos after I've made a sale, because I'm listing a BUNCH of new stuff in the next few days!)

Cute three-piece suit set!

 Lovely suit!

 Pretty church dress with a 20s flair!

SOLD on Etsy!

Vintage ANDREA GAYLE Chevron Striped Cowl Neck Day Dress - M/L/Plus

Vtg 80s Fuchsia Secretary Wiggle Dress w/Ornate Chain Belt - Sz. 14
Vintage Ladies Nancy II Petites Floral Secretary Dress - Sz L

Vtg 90s Grunge Black/Cream Floral Romper Dress - Sz 8

I'll be the first to admit it, but my sales have kind of slowed down on Etsy...I changed my store policy to "no returns" because of a wee little problem of a customer wanting to basically wear an item and then want to return it, so that might be to blame - BUT! these little lovelies have sold in the past few weeks, and I'm so happy that all of my customers were delighted with their purchases!

Please check out my store, because I'm having a blow-out sale - many items are priced from $5.99 to $10.99!

A Whirlwind of Etsy Sales - Thanks To My Loyal Customers!

Just wanted to thank all of my loyal customers on Etsy - all of these items have sold this week, and I'm forever grateful for your support, and I hope you all love your new shoes and clothes!  http://www.etsy.com/shop/TheVaVaVoomShoppe

This is such a cozy sweater!

Sorry for Maxine's lack of decorum here - I promise she never leaves the house sans pantalones.

I LOVE this pantsuit...never got a chance to wear it - it's perfect for fall, no?



This little hipster sweater is perfect for hanging out in the coffee shop!

The pictures of this pantsuit don't do it justice!  The colors are so vibrant, and it's sure to glean compliments!
