Vintage JoAnn

Last week I spent some enjoyable time talking 70′s fashion with a customer. She brought several things in to sell and she could remember where and when she wore them.

I do believe that for most woman clothing represents the history of our lives. An article of clothing can take you right back so clearly you can hear the music and smell the smells you experienced when you wore it.

The pictures are of this customer wearing her red velvet long dress about 1971. The other photo is her in Germany wearing a pair of printed, high waisted pants in an overall style with straps. The print is classic 70′s. These 2 items are currently available in the shop.

She brought many other things such as tall suede boots, black, laced and embroidered boots, a fab pair of embroidered bell bottoms purchased in Gr. Britain on Carnaby St. She also brought some great authentic 70′s platform wedge shoes. The black pants and groovy fringed vest are already sold, as are the rust, suede shoes.

Oh yes, I forgot there is also a fab velvet and tapestry shoulder bag available. It’s always fun to talk vintage clothing with customers!

Pictures will be posted soon
