Vintage Thingie Thursday (1)

This week, I am participating in Vintage Thingie Thursday over at Coloradolady's blog for the first time! I can't wait to check out all the other vintage thingies everyone has found this week!


Today, I came across these fantastic orange/red vintage heels and just had to have them! I may end up featuring them in my shop, but I'm not ready to give them up just yet! I think they would give the perfect vintage pop to any outfit!

I just bought them today and haven't had a chance to research them yet. The brand appears to say Tomjs Made In Portugal. Has anyone heard of this brand??

Shop Update Dec 19

Shop Update!

I've added some great vintage accessories to the shop today!

After all that Christmas shopping, you deserve a little treat for yourself, right?

 
I love the Victorian look and these definitely have it! They would look so perfect peeking out from a long floral dress.

 
I adore the way these button up with little elastic straps and buttons! Very Victorian!

A little bit of 80s does the 40s! I'm so into the 40s look and feel of these oxfords.

These are so rugged, I think they would look so great paired with a flirty dress!

This cute little envelope bag looks like a mini briefcase when you detach the shoulder strap!
 
This little cutie is lined with satiny white fabric.

Stop by and see what else is in my shop at In the Hammock Vintage!!

A Saturday Surprise

Polyvore is a great site where you can make your own fashion collages. There are lots of vintage lovers in the community, as well as fans of modern trends. Is anyone else a Polyvore membeer?
