The seller (who has 100% positive feedback) says she bought the dress from the Quorum boutique and wore it on her wedding day in 1973. She says, “My best [...]

I haven’t seen many vintage Ossie Clark sweaters. I recently posted about the only one that I own here.

Well, right now, on eBay, there’s an Ossie Clark cardigan with very similar detailing to my sweater. That means that if you get it, we could wear them together and be twins!

My friend Evan has this Bob Mackie dress at his vintage store Frock.
$645 at Frock
Check out the fuchsia ruffle at the bottom. There’s also an adorable fuchsia sequin heart on the back. If I had this one, I’d wear it on Valentine’s Day, of course. I have a flair for the obvious.
Evan also has a [...]
