A LITTLE LIPSTICK AND THAT’S IT

Burning the (well past) midnight oil.  Snapped these pics of myself between product photos. A rare glimpse of me – I’m not photogenic at all and therefore very camera shy. I like how some of these tuned out though. They remind me of  Serge Lutens ads from the 70s.

GINGERBREAD

Photos I took a ‘gingerbread’ home in Waxahachie, TX pre-restoration. A couple summers ago. I look forward to photographing more old/abandoned buildings in America soon. Warm weather couldn’t come sooner. These past few days have given me hope.

If auctions leave you impatient, have no fear. This weeks listings (sold via Sisters of the Black Moon) are all Buy It Now’s.  No 10 day waiting period and bidding wars this time around : D.

A dress Coco Chanel would have loved. Classic black & off white ‘secretary’ style dress with accordion pleated skirt and peter pan collar. Very on trend for fall. Pair with lace stockings and vintage furs! here

This could would pair well with the dress above quite nicely. Early 60s houndstooth wool w/ big black buttons and fur trim.  So warm and comfy! here

30s inspired color block knit maxi dress, via the 70s. Black, spiced apple, and metallic silver. Long poet/balloon sleeves. Soft fluid skirting. Very Rudi Gernreich! here

Exotic opulence. Late 60s metallic brocade romper w/ matching belt and gillet. Pristine condition with amazing trim. If you live in a warmer climate, this is perfect holiday wear. here

Also up for grabs > this 60s burgundy velvet mini, this 20s metallic dress, and this 60s baby doll mini w/ fringe trim. Plus plenty of the Sisters’ own fabulous finds! Vintage velvets, furs, fringe, etc. More on the way soon : D.
