Vintage!

Yeah I was going to ask:
Are there any good websites where I can buy mens' vintage clothes?

You can try Etsy.com if you haven't yet.

Yes, someone please help a guy out here, he's practically going naked

^ It's true! I'm in dire need!




Note: Etsy is amazing!

It's strange, for someone who spends most of her time in the History of Style threads, I haven't even set foot in this particular topic until now! My closet is full of fun vintage clothing (an overwhelming amount dates from the 1960s), so I'll have to remind myself to take photographs of all the pieces tomorrow and post them here. That'll only take me a few hours...

RustyZipper.com has a large selection of men's vintage clothing, conveniently sorted by era and style. But don't say I didn't warn you about the size of their selection - the first time I came across the website, it took me days to look through the entire women's section!

Where do you find those threads? How comes that I never discovered them

Here's part of my collection - I have some tops, jewelery, purses, and scarves that I haven't photographed yet.

Green and cream scooter dress (1960s)



Green wool dress with belt (1960s)



Yellow floral tuxedo dress (1960s)



Black floral dress (1960s)



Floral dress with bell sleeves (1960s)
Before you ask, I've never actually worn this dress outside my home! It cost me less than $5 and I'd rather admire it than wear it.



Beaded floral dress (1970s)



Printed sleeveless dress (1960s)



Sleeveless Hawaiian dress (1960s)



Nelly Don pink dress with jeweled belt (1960s)



Navy dress with white trim (1980s)



Christian Dior pink and navy suit (1980s)
I've been meaning to sell this on eBay for a couple years now, but never got around to it. It's not something I would wear myself, but I purchased it anyway because I figured it might sell for more than the original price.

What an amazing collection seanutbutter! I love all of them! And you should certainly wear the bell sleeve dress - it is adorable!!!

I love your navy dress seanut butter. The pink dior reminds me of Lisa from Save by the bell.

seanutbutter, your collection is amazing! You almost inspired me to photograph my vintage items, but it would take a lot of weird angling of this laptop computer, since it takes digital pictures for me. That floral tuxedo dress is amazing. And the beaded floral dress...

Your Vintage Treasures

I'm so fascinated when people buy/find awesome vintage items for so little price from second hand stores or got it from their grandparents. At the moment I'm hoping to come across some glomesh accessories, like a coin purse, a bag or even earrings, hopefully I find some when I go to the second hand stores. Has anyone bought or found any awesome vintage items lately?? Post them up and let us see.

beauty of the third world: last year i got the 2.5 chanel bag for less than $5 . no one understood what i was so excited about. i double checked with the merchant if he wanted to sell at such a low price. he said it was just a bag!

lol just a bag!!! I would have just bought it without asking.. thats a fantastic find !! I hope I come across something like that one day !!

 

[seanutbutter]

Great idea for a thread, but I wonder if it should be merged with the other Vintage thread? Maybe a moderator can decide. Anyway, I look forward to seeing what vintage pieces you all have found!

 

[JKISSI]

All the vintage treasures I want never seem to find.. maybe some 50s vintage pieces
