I really appreciate all the support I’ve received from my fans and customers since we closed the brick and mortar store and moved totally online. I recently decided to move my online store to Etsy for a couple of reasons. First of all it is a collection of similar shops allowing a prospective customer to search the entire site [...]

I finished sewing my red rose dress today from the 1957 pattern. I wore it with modern peep toe pumps I got from penneys a few years ago. They look so vintage, you can’t tell! Sunglasses, bead necklace and bracelet- all vintage 5o’s. The red crinoline is enormass with many layers- looks great but not [...]

Mandi does it again! She was kind enough to send me some pics of her modeling photos wearing clothing she got at Vintage JoAnn. The blue 50′s dress with the lace and tulle looks adorable, and I LOVE the hat! Also 50′s netting and blue millinary flowers. The leopard skirt was a 60′s find and [...]

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 [...]

Every day is an adventure at Vintage JoAnn as I never know who or what is going to come strolling through my door. Today a good friend stopped by and dropped off a load of the most bodacious men’s 1970′s shirts. Cotton and polyester, long pointy collars, tapered fit, from an era when some men’s [...]

Last month a very attractive young couple stopped in and and I enjoyed their visit. One of the items they bought was a bright green halter dress, form fitting and dripping with long fringes, like a 20′s flapper dress, even though the dress is circa 1970. She looked absolutely fabulous and they left but not [...]

I always get a chuckle reading fashion articles giving advice on buying green. Especially “vegan” purses. That’s code for plastic which is a petroleum product! There is nothing more green than buying vintage!!!! When you shop at my store you not only get good prices, you are shopping locally. Everything we purchase that has been [...]

Time sure flies when I start looking at fashion on the internet! My Elle magazine came today and I checked out their website, elle.com That website is so cool. My favorite feature is the videos where they check out the “most stylish women on the street” in NYC. The best part was the women almost always [...]
