Buh-bye!!





Had a surprisingly busy weekend on Etsy - the Picasso jacket is fluttering away to a good home back East, and this darling little polyester secretary/day dress is also flying away - thanks to my wonderful, loyal customers, and I will be listing several new items today!http://www.etsy.com/shop/TheVaVaVoomShoppe

Vintage 90s UGLY Power Suit w/Embroidery Size M/L






Oh boy...it doesn't get more over-the-top than this, does it?? Maxine presents the ultimate in 80s kraptastic-ness - a vintage 80s power suit by Stella Lowe for KB!

In around 1990 or so, I would have strutted into the office thinking I looked fresh in this - why not look fresh, too?  What comes around, fashion-wise, goes around! :)

This suit features huge shoulder pads, black and gold buttons down the front of the jacket, and just check out the elaborate beadwork and embroidery! None of the beads are missing! Makes you want to watch re-runs of the Golden Girls, doesn't it? This suit is dry clean only, and both pieces are fully lined.

No size tag listed, so based upon the following measurements, I'd say it would best fit a modern medium to large, but please read meas. to ensure a proper fit:

Shoulder: 16.5"
Bust: 20" (double)
Waist: 16" (double)
Hip: 19" (double)
Length: 31" shoulder to hem
Sleeve: 23.5"

Skirt:
Waist: 13.5" to 14.5" (double - has partial elastic waist)
Hip: 20" (double)
Length: 21.5"

Price:  $25.99 plus $5.00 US shipping; $13.95 international shipping.

Vtg 80s UGLY Neon Picasso Jacket - M-XL






Oh my goodness...have you ever seen anything quite so 80s kraptastic in your life??

Maxine is, like, totally speechless. She's sporting a rare 80s treasure here - it's a silky Picasso print jacket, done in great 80s neon colors, complete with batwing sleeves and shoulderpads. It's got no size or fabric tags - I'm fairly sure it's a poly blend, and it's machine washable (I've laundered it!) It zips up the front and has front pockets. There are a couple of jackets on Etsy similar to this one, but I'm the only shop that has it available in NEON!

Based on the measurements, I think this jacket could easily fit anyone from a medium to plus size, but please refer to meas. below to ensure a proper fit:

Shoulder: 21"
Bust: 24" (double)
Sleeve: 23"
Length: 25.5" shoulder to hem

Price:  $19.99 plus $5.00 US shipping; $13.95 for international shipping.

Please, PLEASE give this jacket a loving home, won't you??
