Yesterday morning I went out to get a prescription filled for my husband. Luckily for me, the pharmacy is only 3 blocks away. But even luckier is that there's a vintage clothing store right across from it. So while I was waiting for the prescription I thought I would do some window shopping at the vintage store. I hadn't planned on buying anything, until I saw this gorgeous vintage bracelet. I had a very similar 1950's bracelet that broke last month, so it was perfect timing!

Vintage Shopping Surprise

Antique Shopping Trip
Anyhow, I posted a few pictures of my purchases.
First is a pair of gorgeous 1950's vintage shoes. They are covered in rhinestones and have lucite heels! The best part though, is they're a size 8 and fit me perfectly!
Next I found the cutest 1950's lamp. It has a green shade, a frame with a leaf design, and comes with a removable ashtray!
The last photo is of my prized art deco purse. It's a good size with 3 pockets inside, and has a beautiful lucite clasp.
I don't even have a photo of my favorite purchase though! It's a silver cracked ice 1950's arborite tea cart. So unique! I also picked up a classy looking 1940's black velvet hat.
I think it was my most successful vintage shopping trip yet!
