Sometimes every vintage loving girl has to step out of her comfort zone and buy something new, i have to buy new shoes because my size 8.5 "large" feet wont fit into the teeny tiny vintage shoes i find all the time..(is it weird that sometimes i buy them even if i dont fit into them?...lets go with no shall we?) i also sometimes buy new jewellery if i cant find what i need at a vintage/op shop i think as nice as it is to dress head to toe vintage a perfect balance of new and old is also just as beautiful, especially when the new has a old world design too.
I saw this set at Forever New when i was buying sparkly flats to match a cute 50's dress (they have the cutest jewellery) and thought it was such a sweet design, my grandmother had a pear shaped set similar to this when she would go out dancing and i had always looked back at her photos and wished she still had them. I have a few vintage necklaces that have the same amount of glitz but sometimes i feel a little stressed wearing them just in case i loose a stone or it drops off my neck mid-dance, so having a new set to wear means i can be a little more carefree and save the more fragile peices for dinners instead of crazy lindy hop!
If your wanting to look at a few of their pieces just follow this link, im off to make another coffee and get stuck into my Tuesday!!

ReplyDeleteI know what you mean with having too big of feet for vintage shoes. Mine are large too, but I don't know what the size difference is in Australia compared to the US.

Very pretty and good lighting. Though I have to say, I find it quite depressing when it comes to finding vintage shoes. Actually, its impossible, as I wear a size 11 :( I wish to death that I could have smaller feet and the possibility of even second hand shoes at thrift stores. Keep up the great work, you're very pretty and have gained a new follower. I'l be back soon, have a great day :)
