Oh boy this year is going by fast! The first week of November and I've just received my first Christmas party invite. So I'm already planning some outfits for the forthcoming holiday season. I think you can never go wrong with a great vintage dress for Christmas and New Years parties. Why?
- Cost is often MUCH MUCH less than new, even when factoring in shipping and alterations
- Rarity of vintage garments effectively guarantees no other women will be wearing Your dress.
- Selection: the vast range of styles, fabric and colors produced throughout the years is not limited to this seasons trends.
- Versatility: Vintage can be iconic, classic, quirky or uber hip; it's all in how you wear it.
- Higher Quality: vintage clothes almost always have superior finishing, finer fabric and unique embellishments that are lacking in our new mass produced clothes.
- Vintage is a green choice: Reduce, Re-use and Recycle. Wearing vintage instead of buying a new sweatshop produced garment just makes better sense!
Not So Basic Black:
Slimming and always flattering. Elegant to sexy, black never fails!

ONE WARNING : If you are thinking about buying a vintage dress for the upcoming holiday soirees, keep in mind that selection is the best if you shop early and shipping times can take a lot longer than normal as we head into December's Christmas rush.
