Vintage at The Cat in Glasses

I did some vintage shopping this weekend, and also found time to get listings up for a few vintage pieces at my Etsy shop, The Cat in Glasses.

I absolutely love this embroidered linen circle skirt. I would have kept it for myself if it actually fit me.


So mod:


I also have a dress pattern from the early 70s. It's a nurse's uniform, but with the right material and styling would be make great retro office wear. That pointed collar is just perfect.


I have a stack of great finds from this weekend that I need to list, like a wool short sleeve sweater, a sheer green top and really cool vintage home-sewing dress.

A Good Saturday

I shipped out my first Etsy order, my Venomous Wench embroidery was included in an Etsy treasury, and I picked up some stellar vintage clothes (and a Vogue Givenchy sewing pattern). I still have a stack of clothes that need to be photographed and listed on Etsy, but that's what Sunday is for. We also saw so many puppies and cats at the pet stores. There was one with three legs that I would have immediately adopted if I was allowed dogs in my apartment.

Before I start some paper cut collages and cards, how about a good cat pic?
