Wa...@ Tricia, thank you very much for your comment! Warmest of welcomes to Chronically Vintage, it's wonderful to make your acquaintance! <br /><br />Wishing you a fantastic Thursday!<br />♥ JessicaWitchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-18909862411125163232009-07-16T02:26:04.811-07:002009-07-16T02:26:04.811-07:00@ MissMatlida, thank you very much! Though I find ...@ MissMatlida, thank you very much! Though I find my feet can vary as much as a size in either direction, I often wear a 8.5 as well and was seriously tempted too! It's so hard to find vintage shoes (especially in good condition at an affordable price) in sizes above a (US) six.<br /><br />@ Karyn, thank you for the lovely comment, honey! I too pine for the ingrained sense of femininity that ran through the beautiful days of the past.<br /><br />@ The Glamorous Housewife, that's awesome (not "bad")! Will you share photos of your treasures with us once they arrive?<br /><br />@ Lemondrop Marie, I know, it's absolutely mad that gloves as an everyday wardrobe staple fell out of vogue. I love gloves myself, and hope to find more in the future so that I can better carry on the age-old art of completing my outfits with the proper "handware".<br /><br />@ Dustjacket attic, thank you very much, sweet dear. I agree entirely, that dress is magnificent!<br /><br />@ Maggi, thank you, sweetie! I think that brooch is fantastic too! The neutral hues and timeless floral shape would make it easy to pair with a myriad of outfits.<br /><br />@ GypsyFox, don't worry about it for a moment, darling! Thank you for the cheerful "hi", it's always a treat to hear from you! (I would have worn that dress as my wedding gown in a heartbeat, too!)<br /><br />@ Keith, thank you very much. I think it must be even tougher for guys to include a lot of white in your wardrobes. (White) Jackets have the potential end up looking like uniforms or waiter garb, and white pants seem to scream of the 70s disco era. A crisp white button down shirt on a man is one of the best (and most handsome) items he can own, so it certainly never hurts to have those in your clothing arsenal.<br /><br />@ Amanda, thank you, my dear, that's a great point. White, for all it's seemingly "plain" properties can be surprisingly versatile.<br /><br />@ Andi B. Goode, so happy to know you enjoyed this post, thank you very much for your lovely comment! I fear that I loath my knees (so unshapely, always have been - *sigh*) too much to muster the courage to wear white shorts (or shorts that hit above the knee in any hue), but I would love a really well cut pair of white cotton pants or even jeans.<br /><br />@ Nora & Lola, aren't you two just sweeter than ice cream with chocolate sauce! Thank you so very much for the terrific award, I shall pass it along in a future post. <br /><br />@ GypsyFox, oh my, you and Nora are making me blush! Thank you so, so much for the awesome award, honey! I'm really honoured!<br /><br /><br />Tons of thanks, everyone, for your wonderful comments! I always adore hearing from you, and hope that you're each in the midst of having a stellar week!<br /><br />Big hugs!<br />♥ JessicaWitchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3423410690702297063.post-82400527642281382352009-07-15T20:19:49.915-07:002009-07-15T20:19:49.915-07:00HI sweets!

I would love a pair of white pin-up shorts, though.<br />And you've also reminded me that I must go to my favourite vintage store and snap up the tennis dresses she has in there. I'm the kind of girl who likes a lot of length in her dresses but a tennis dress is perfect for summer paired with some shorts as a type of playsuit.<br />-Andi xAndi B.
