eVintage Society Blog Tag Wednesday~ SEX AND THE CITY~

I've been tagged by SYDNEY'S VINTAGE FASHION RUNWAY for the eVINTAGE SOCIETY Wednesday Blog Tag.

You can’t turn on the TV, walk past a magazine rack at the market or eavesdrop on ladies chatting at lunch (what, like you don’t do that?) without being assaulted with images and stories about the big screen debut of “Sex and the City."......which, as we all know, is less about a riveting plotline than it is about FASHION! So lets dish.

1) We know Carrie favors vintage, but let’s dress them all! Like cyber paperdolls. To kick it off, show us a piece you think the quirky, eclectic and whimsical Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker) would look great in from your inventory.

What better than a "tutu"? This pale pink 50s crinoline would look uber Carrie-esque with a tank top and Manolos....

2)Samantha (Kim Cattrall) works the vampy edge of fashion…what do you have in your inventory that can bring out the temptress in a woman?
Ultra sexy 70s halter dress with plunging neckline in saffron yellow.....

3)Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) tends to play it safe, tending toward clean lines and classic silhouettes with the occassional sexy edge. What do you have in your inventory for her?
A superb black organza beaded 60s cocktail dress by Malcolm Starr! Perfect.

4)Charlotte (Kristin Davis) is often seen in more feminine, flirty and girlie pieces. What vintage dress or ensemble do you have that would work for her character?

Sweet summery sleevless silk 50s party dress with bold blue roses....

5)Sex and the City Shoes. Stilettos? Of course! If you’ve got some vintage shoes to rival Carrie’s Jimmy Choos, show ‘em off here!
Killer multicolor 60s stilettos from Spain....

6) Love the show? Hate the show? Never seen it? Do tell. No spoilers if you’ve seen the movie!
Ummmmmm........never seen one whole episode, and while I love fashion and it is my job and passion, I can't imagine living a life that shallow. They seem devoted to finding clothes, shoes, men and sex and have very empty lives. I would not want my daughter to look up to women like that. Sorry fans!

*Get Belted!* and Site Updtes May 26

I end up aquiring a lot of belts with estates, and sometimes some super keen ones show up now and then on their own. I decided to add a few to the site recently.....what easier way to add a little vintage edge to a modern ensemble than cinching it with a cool belt?

30's feminine cotton floral print sashes with slide buckles in celluloid plastic will perk up jeans and a tank or add color to a solid print dress....

60s beaded and sequined Malcolm Starr belt....

60s mod pastel rings and chain belt....

60s British rocker belt in weathered leather with hand made wooden closure painted with the British flag, adjustable to a wide range of sizes....

Added late last week (I'm so far behind!!!).....

New in The Noir Boudoir...the most stunning and unusual piece of lingerie I've had the luck of coming across...a mid 50's Vanity Fair Conversation Pieces short nightgown in black chiffon and nylon with uber-racy gold lame lined sheer lace cups (the highest end of the VF line at the time and very risque for the 50s!).....

Divine size 5 40's platform shoes in navy suede with bright blue gemstone accents & ankle straps....

50's cranberry silk cocktail dress by Nettie Rosenstein with huge organza and velvet floral accent....

60s poppies and polka dot print cotton sundress....

80s draped jersey gown with rhinestone shoulder detail by Perullo for Fred Perlberg....

60s gilded, floral edged 60s sweater in shocking pink cashmere....

Marimekko inspired floral print 70s blouse by Ship n' Shore....

40s gabardine blouse with Olympic torch inspired print...

50s purple lace wiggle dress....

All links are clickable and a LOT to come this week, including a 40s satin swimsuit with flamingo and palm tree print!
