That skirt is doing me no good...Kayahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06939086119577691825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089197969206589217.post-22798928398997473782011-03-04T12:13:36.469-08:002011-03-04T12:13:36.469-08:00I have always loved that Coach bag.

It really looks great! I love the DIY Vintage mix-and-match trend that you ladies are doing; it never ceases to fascinate! In fact I gave it kudos in this little piece I did with the à la Modest fashion blog, hope you enjoy it:<br /><br />http://alamodest.com/?p=3567David Gastenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10678098373816396099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089197969206589217.post-36320117742989929122010-11-11T10:08:54.562-08:002010-11-11T10:08:54.562-08:00At least you get to co-ordinate it with other item...At least you get to co-ordinate it with other items!

A relative who visited recently gave me an adorable orange and white polka dotted jacket because it didn't fit them,but, they kept the matching dress.

There are many vintage items I don't particularly like, but I have respect for them, for I know someone out there will love it. I have seen sets of things where I love one item, but not the other, but I would never separate them, because again, I know someone out there will love both pieces. <br /><br />It is not my goal to alienate people, I gave my opinion on something on my blog, because, well, it's my blog. It is first and foremost a hobby for myself, where I can be myself, and anyone who wants to follow along as I document my life through clothing is welcome to. If they don't like what I say or wear, I hope they have the insight to realize everyone has different tastes and opinions, and move on.Solanahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17543713717427918730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089197969206589217.post-88425444289738726812010-11-07T14:55:11.106-08:002010-11-07T14:55:11.106-08:00i think one can be a 'true vintage lover' ...i think one can be a 'true vintage lover' and still separate a suit or other type of matching set. not all of us want to wear 30s-40s suits, you know :) be careful of your wording lest you begin to alienate your 'other' audiences..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089197969206589217.post-13833723832582161852010-11-07T04:09:23.577-08:002010-11-07T04:09:23.577-08:00Lovely pictures, as always!

Most people nowadays don't want to wear suits and also sometimes there are vast size differences between coats and skirts. I personally don't think it's so terrible to sell them as separates if they're more likey to sell and get use that way.kim @ pineappleminthttp://pineapplemintvintage.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089197969206589217.post-83015038599851766462010-11-06T18:45:20.214-07:002010-11-06T18:45:20.214-07:00You are beautiful!You are beautiful!emmahttp://www.damernasvarld.se/emmanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089197969206589217.post-43840018663411471942010-11-06T17:47:27.253-07:002010-11-06T17:47:27.253-07:00Loving the whole outfit - especially the boot/red...Loving the whole outfit - especially the boot/red socks combo.LandGirl1980https://www.blogger.com/profile/09549128222449333173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089197969206589217.post-56896617564151070662010-11-06T16:27:45.332-07:002010-11-06T16:27:45.332-07:00want to hear something silly? last night i dreame...want to hear something silly? last night i dreamed that you and i pierced my cat's ear and then went out to lunch! haha!tracy rosenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089197969206589217.post-56770902048651608972010-11-06T15:57:40.511-07:002010-11-06T15:57:40.511-07:00you couldn't possibly look *any* cuter. perfec...you couldn't possibly look *any* cuter. perfect.laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05805270149790604401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089197969206589217.post-51569898264236530482010-11-06T13:04:19.587-07:002010-11-06T13:04:19.587-07:00Oh, that's such a beautiful jacket!!
