Vintage Find

Yesterday was the greatest day! I was at the stamp store in Issaquah (finishing off the last of my work resource budget) and next door there was a vintage clothing store that had a bunch of racks out front. I was browsing through the racks out front and found an awesome jacket! It is going to be my new theater jacket. The dear husband and I just picked up From the Earth to the Moon so I've been admiring some of the better bits of fashion mixed in with the 60s. The inside of the store was filled with even more treasures, shoes, purses, costumes, mens and womens clothing...I had to reign myself in to the one impulse buy. Plus my great new find had the price cut in half! Such a great shopping day!


Here's the label from the inside, it's hard to tell but the red says 1964! How cool is that!



It needs a little work, I need to replace a button and the white trim is actually two pieces, so I need to sew the ends back together. But even I can handle simple sewing like this.

When we see Spamalot on Saturday I'm going to be styling! If you're interesting in going vintage hunting yourself the store is:
