silk

Before I started selling vintage I wasn't too fussed about silk - if i felt something polyester I wouldn't necessarily know/care about the difference. These days, after spending endless amounts of time sifting through clothes at thrift stores/sales etc. I know the feel of real silk as soon as it touches my fingers and I LOVE it. Sometimes I need to talk myself down from buying truly hideous things purely because they're made of my beloved silken fabric. Not to hate on poly blouses, because some of them are awesome, but there's something about the feel of wearing real silk that's straight up luxurious.

There are a few silk blouses in my Etsy shop right now with some dresses coming in the next big update (starting this weekend). I was so excited to get them listed that, in Kerry's absence, I even modeled them myself! I promise her lovely mug will be back next time. Here are some of my silk offerings:
