eVintage Society BLOG TAG WEDNESDAY ~Tropical Tease!

I've been tagged by SYDNEY'S VINTAGE FASHION RUNWAY for the eVINTAGE SOCIETY

1) Show us your favorite Hawaiian or tropical print in your inventory!

I'm just about to add this fabulous little red sundress with gold and black Hawaiian print with the coveted PEGGY WOOD label! Its another piece from the collection of SPENCER COMMUNITY THEATRE, proceeds go to support the theatre!



2)Favorite era for Hawaiian? 40's exotic gowns, 50s bombshell sarongs, 60s printed shifts or 70's Hawaiian halter maxis?

40s for sure. Beaded tropical print gowns, palm tree print swimwear in satins....so glamorous!

3)Favorite exotic destination if money were no object?

Given that I am terrified to fly, thats a tough one. Maybe a cruise to Hawaii. I'm not really a global traveling type!

4)Favorite exotic destination on a real-world budget?

REALLY tight budget? The local Botanical Center!

5)Best vacation ever?

Always Okoboji, with my daughter!

eVintage Society BLOG TAG Wednesday (on Friday!) **Vintage Swimsuits**

I've been tagged by SYDNEY'S VINTAGE FASHION RUNWAY for the eVINTAGE SOCIETY Wednesday Blog Tag. Lets pretend its Wednesday, shall we?

1)WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE SWIMSUIT OR BEACH WEAR OFFERED IN YOUR INVENTORY?

Fantastic shimmering gold skirted 2 piece pin up 40s swimsuit....

2)WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE ERA IN SWIMWEAR, TO SELL OR WEAR?


30's swimsuits are always my favorite, though harder to find....I love the glamour they evoke, the gown inspired details, sexy exposed backs.

3)FAVORITE DESIGNER OR LINE?

I think Catalina did some of the coolest swimsuits I've personally had.

4)FAVORITE BEACH RESORT?

Not at all exotic or tropical....Okoboji Lake in northern Iowa!

COLOR OR BLACK AND WHITE?


Lots of color!!! I love a great graphic black and white but give me giant orange poppies any day!

6)FAVORITE POOLSIDE, TROPICAL COCKTAIL (WITH OR WITHOUT ALCOHOL)?

Raspberry margarita!

7)FOR YOU, BIKINI OR ONE PIECE?
One pieced, skirted, with mucho bust support. It rocks being almost 40!
