Basics on a Budget – Where to Find Bargain Accessories
August 12, 2010Vintage at Goodwood – My Day Out.
August 16, 2010Previous Friday Frock Love has been lavished on High Street, Ethical Fashion and Vintage Repro.
But if I’m honest, when I have some money to spend on a frock I normally head to eBay to check out the vintage. Not because I don’t like the other stuff, but because I can normally get more bang for my buck.
I’m not actually at my laptop today, this post is pre written. As you read it I am probably in town buying wellies, or attempting to put up a tent in the rain without crying at Vintage at Goodwood. I will probably be updating Twitter and Facebook with tales of my joy/woe over the weekend, should you care to join me. If not, then I leave you to enjoy these gorgeous frocks I’ve picked from eBay (UK and US)
Henry Rosenfeld 1950’s evening dress
Terrible pictures of what looks like a gorgeous dress on this listing. But at least there are plenty of them!
Ends Saturday 14th August 22:38 BST
Current Price £1.50
40s Nautical Influence Floral Navy Day Dress
Again, not the most inspiring photos, but this looks like the perfect dress should Summer ever return!
Ends Monday 16th August 05:50 BST
Current Price $49.99 (approx £31.92)
Original 1950s Floral Wiggle Shift Dress
Probably heading towards the 60s in date, this has that much sought after Mad Men vibe (you know, I’ve never seen that, should I bother?)
Ends Sunday 15 August 13:46 BST
Buy It Now Price £49.99 (or make an offer)
40s Simple Green Cotton Day House Dress Sheath
A gorgeous nipped waist with ever handy pockets. The listing says it’s 40s, but I’m just not sure on the shape, is it maybe more 50s? Either way it’s a gorgeous dress.
Ends Monday 16th August 02:08 BST
Current Price $5.24 (Approx £3.36)
50s 60s Cotton Check House Dress
Why Retro Chick, does this come from YOUR shop? Yes it does! A beautiful 50s or 60s home made house dress that I originally bought for myself, but am regretfully selling as my ridiculously broad shoulders mean I can only get out of it with help. I really adore the shawl collar on this and the 3/4 sleeves.
Ends Friday 3rd September 13:44 BST
Buy It Now Price £29.99 (free postage)
1950s Day Dress – Dahlia Pattern
Such a beautiful print, I might buy this just to stare at it.
Ends Saturday 21st August 19:00 BST
Current Price £14.99
40s Black Rayon Embroidered Cocktail Dress
Beautiful detailing and classic 40s styling. This is a bigger size too! (48″ bust)
Ends Tuesday 17th August 03:00 BST
Current Price $31 (approx £19.89)

Great finds thanks for sharing xoxo
That first one is beautiful! Too bad it’s far too small for me and in the UK.
Love the florals and the cocktail dress is amazing!
