Vintage Clothing in Plus Sizes

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 cloth...

Fashion Find - Shabby Apple!

After Class - $78.00! (available in WS - Women Sizes) Some time ago, I came across a fabulous fashion find and perused that website from top to bottom, inside and out...you know, looking at every link, tabs...I loved the fashions, dresses, skirts, accessories, displayed in all it's splendid glory! Then I got distracted and forgot to bookmark the darn web page! Gypsy necklace - $17.00 Well thank heavens my diva brain kicked in reminding me that I had written the name of the website down, not the web address mind you, just the name. I have two words for you Shabby Apple !  That's it!  I did a Google search and wallah ~ ShabbyApple.com was found again!  I went back on line and joined their website. Then I perused to my heart's content, putting eons of stuff on my "Wishlist"!  This "online dress boutique" has fast become one of my favorite places to go online. And to top if off,  I discovered that I could link their site ...
