Lately I've been thinking about vintage wear, especially because I watch Bravo TV a lot and a new program called Decades, features the ups and daily happenings of their store which specializes in vintage designer clothing for sizes 8 - 0. If they do carry size 10 or 12, they've never mentioned that. I'm guessing because they cater to a lot of Hollywood starlets. (although in this last episode they had a shoe sale and there were regular people shopping!)
It got me thinking that I do love vintage! I think I have mentioned that before curvy divas, especially because of my love for vintage costume jewelery. It doesn't have to be from any particular designer, as long as it appeals to my sense of style and is well made!
I thought about getting involved with plus size vintage clothing and wondered if there is such a thing? I realized that there is because of Mod Cloth and Shabby Apple fashions! I love their sites and have featured their clothing in articles in the past! But what else would be "out there" I wondered? So I turned to trusty Google and entered the words "plus size vintage clothing", and yes, they do exist! I was surprise as the variety! Some I loved immediately, some I didn't like so much.
I came across several vintage plus sized clothing sites and the ones I liked were pinupgirlclothing.com (they do also cater to regular sized divas), and Chicstar.com.
This is my favorite look at pinupgirlclothing.com:

Chicstar also carries the most darling skirts!
I have a Vintage board on Pinterest that I have been pinning some of the fashion I like to. I will definitely continue to keep pinning my inspirations on to it! This is one of my favorite jewelery look:
