Fields of cocktail dresses, as far as the eye can see. This vintage site features copious amounts of mid-century formalwear with a thriving daytime section that includes suits and separates, and page after page of cateye glasses.

Vintage jewelry, signed and unsigned, with pages for Mexican, bakelite and plastic, copper, cufflinks, and modernist designs, particularly good for deco. And there’s a great eye for fabulous hats in the vintage clothing section.

This site piles sparkling jewels atop ripped jeans and Kiss My Grits t-shirts, topping everything off with a trucker hat. It’s flea-market chic galloping off in a cowgirl direction, gleefully piling on petticoats and armwarmers and whatever else jacks the glamour-trash contrast. Chandeliers and bottlecap plaques, funky jackets and promfroth in the vintage section, fringed bags, high-end rockabilly jewelry, cowboy boots, a little kidswear, garage-sale finds, it takes a skilled eye to work all these disparate aesthetics together and the catalog photos are loaded with fantastic serving suggestions for jeans outfits. Good stuff. Thanks, Sara!

Vintage clothing chosen from the high-end designer end of the spectrum, less lace-oozing prom gown and more refined cocktail hour. Suit sets, swimwear, fab 70’s coats, handbags, shoes, lots of great finds to blend seamlessly into careerwear and high-powered social settings, where each era is represented with much regard to fine taste – although not without a sense of humor (see the jewelry section).

Glamorous effluvia from the twenties through the fifties, boasting an utterly fantastic selection of compacts. Stylized mesh flapper bags, poofy clasp purses, rhinestone jewelry, smart little hats, perfume bottles and other vanity goodies, celluloid and bakelite in abundance. A fantastic place for little vintage signatures and staples.

Fashion from deco to disco. The name implies yesteryear finds, and there are plenty of those, but they also carry retro designs from Trashy Diva, Janique, Nataya, and others. A fabulous place for party dresses, from femme fatale mermaid sheaths to bursts of swingy tulle, with peeks of Pucci, floral chiffon, and tropical prints. Lingerie, bathing suits, high heels, handbags, jewelry, cinch belts, opera gloves, all of it chosen with an eye for only the very cutest.

Vintage clothing from the UK, from the 20’s through the 80’s, and just as much stuff for the gentlemen as there is for the ladies. Besides the usual party dresses, Hawaiian gowns, and fabulous claspy handbags, there’s a section just for military finds. Lingerie, swimwear, shoes, hair accessories, and sunglasses also get their own pages within copious amounts of meticulously recovered yesteryear.
