As much as I love dresses and dressing up, sometimes it's easier to incorporate vintage into your wardrobe if it's in the form of a top. So more cute blouses please. Or maybe just more separates in general. Thanks for this chance!

Purses, purses, and more purses! And as someone else mentioned, vintage shoes in bigger sizes. My poor size 9 tootsies can't fit into many of the beautiful vintage shoes I've come across.

I'm in! I'm a blog follower of Fab Gabs (plus on facebook). Love their stuff! I agree, there can never be too many hats =)
One thing I do really wish for (but realize it might be very hard to find) is everyday vintage shoes. They have a lovely shoe-collection, but it's mostly shoes for summer or party. My dream is to find the perfect pair of vintage pumps... Got to keep on looking, I suppose!

Thank you for having this great giveaway!

Casey said...

Oh my--I'm loving all the goodies in this lot! ;) I agree with you on more hats! I've actually started wearing a lot of my vintage hats (my goal is to wear a hat at least once a week!), so I'd love to see more at Fab Gabs!

It is hard to nit pick as to things she could add, as there is great variety and it's all organized so perfectly. That having been said my wish for all vintage stores (and I guess that encompasses this one too) is shoes in larger sizes, such as 8.5 and bigger.
