vintage finds...


Back to purses again.  What can I say - love a purse.  I still have many to share with you but I was recently given two cute little vintage numbers as gifts and I'm sharing them this week.  I think what I love most is they are different.  I like unique things (and people).  Also, many vintage bags have such lovely craftsmanship.  They are classic and will never go out of style. 

As I said, both these purses were gifts but both were scored at estate sales and therefore count as a "score".  Anybody can buy a cute little vintage bag for the right price, it's finding them for less than it cost to buy a pizza that makes it an official "score". 

My aunt gave me this cute little white metal mesh bag.  I wore it to a graduation party a few weeks ago.



The supplier of many of my most fabulous vintage stuff, my mother, brought me this little number a few weeks ago.  It's very classic, prim and proper, so I wore it to a baseball game of course!



Could it be cuter?  I think not.

Nope - couldn't be cuter - cute as a button is about as cute as you can get.

Fabulous! And yes, even better when they are a 'score'!

Hard to believe, but I am down to three purses. One day I just decided they were collecting dust. I may have to rethink that now...

I love the white mesh one! I have to admit, I have a lot of purses, but I'm often running so late that I just use my standby big gray-ish metallic purse instead of switching my stuff to a cuter one. :(
