Vintage clothing

[DeeGeMe]

I've got a vintage Wild Heart tee too. I haven't worn it in ages though. It's lavender colored. I'm a big collector of vintage purses and have two Mandalian mesh purses and probably 10 Whiting-Davis mesh purses. For years I had this great madras plaid shirt that had belonged to my Uncle. I wore it all the time but it finally just began to get too old and worn to wear anymore. I also have an antique piano shawl. I'm a sucker for accessories and have several pieces of jewelry from the 30's, 40's, and 50's. Some of it's real, some of it's costume.

I lavender Wild Heart shirt!?! I have never seen one of those! No, I have seen the sleeveless ones before. Is your a regular T or sleeveless?

[DeeGeMe]

It's short-sleeved and I brought it in Greensboro NC during the Wild Heart tour!

Oh cool!! I am always looking on Ebay for a navy blue one, now I will add lavender to my list.

Here is a photo of my Pop Outs (as you can see, "POP OUT" is branded into the wood ) Please also note the one piece pantsuit (no it's not a skirt, they're pants) I am wearing with them (it's a black polyester top attached to satiny pants. I bought it for $3 at Goodwill.)

I found my first pair of Pop Outs at an antique mall about 7 or 8 years ago. Paid $15, wore them to the annual World's Largest Disco for years. Finally, the buckle broke, so I did invest in a new pair ($20 on ebay last year.) Those are practically mint, so I haven't worn them much.

Basically, they are just really high wooden sandals with leather (OK, OK, pleather ) straps & brass buckles. You walk around as usual, but when you're ready to skate, you pull out the button on the side of the shoe & the wheels come down for your skating pleasure.

I do not remember these being around when I was younger at all. But my husband insists that one of his lunch ladies ("sloppy joe, sloppy sloppy joe... ) in elementary school had a pair & that she used to skate around the cafeteria.

No, Amber. There isn't anything better.

Glad you like them. Maybe I'll bring them to NOTS weekend & you can have a roll.

Squeee! What size are they? (yes, I am a dork)

Forgot to mention in this thread that I have a skirt from the Silver Springs Emporium that was once owned by Stevie. It is a teal, handkerchief hemline, gauzy skirt which looks to be from the 70s. It is very casual. I think I have a picture somewhere...
