Thrift finds: January 4th, 2013

So far, this blog has been rather lacking in pictures and individual fashions, but that's about to change!  Today, I made some great thrift purchases.  I won't show you the whole garments today, but I will give you a taste of what they look like.  We'll hold full photographs until I have a model on hand or something I can model myself.

Of these fashions, all of the jackets fit me well, but the skirts and dresses are a little snug.  I think they may fit soon, though, so I haven't lost hope.  One of the dresses needs restoration.

This is the dress that needs the most work.  It's by Roberta Lee.  The zipper has some issues, and it has a couple of tiny spots.  I believe the dress is from the 60's, if you think otherwise you could post in the comments and tell me about it.  It's very odd.  The fabric pattern reverses under the bust.



 The jacket that came with it also does interesting things at the pockets.


On to the next one!


This Good Times suit is very cute.  I don't know how old it is.  Maybe 80's?  It has very cute bows on it.  The buttons are large and white.  The jacket came with a plain navy pencil skirt.

Here's another cool dress.  I believe this dress by DBY is from the 80's, and it came with a suit jacket.


It has a cute bow detail under the bust area.

Lastly, there's this unmarked grey and pink (houndstooth? check?) dress.  It's adorable, but I don't know much about it.  It didn't come with a suit jacket.

I got an awesome deal on all of this at my local Goodwill.  Some of these items were very on sale, and of course the people who work there are always very nice to me.

I'll be doing more research on these outfits as I go along.  You may see these pop up with accessories on a model later.  :D  Until next time!
