I’m seeing more and more ladies from all age groups buying and wearing these beautiful creations from the past as a way to show their individual style.  I personally love hats from all eras and would wear more but I have a humongous head and few fit.  I’ve met a few other people with this issue and find the headband types sometimes fit.  I prefer the feathered ones myself.

  I sometimes sport a rather audatious red feathered number that curves a spray of crimson feathers around my chubby cheek.
In the last week I have purchased around 52 hats from 2 different sellers.  I had a ball going through them and displaying them!  All price ranges are included, ranging from 90 dollars to 7 dollars.  Shiapperelli, Dior, and other designers are included. Many of these beauties were purchased from famous
department stores in N.Y. during the 50′s and 60′s. There are also some 40′s ones.  Wool. straw. and many materials and lovely trims, including flowers, cherries, and feathers.

I also recently put out some more men’s hats , fedora types, caps and others which will be fabulous for fall for men or you ladies.

I am actively buying for autumn now and have put out a extensive array of coats for your enjoyment.

Many of the hats I have for winter are various furs from the 50′s to the 70′s.  Very glamorous and warm.

I don’t wear or sell new fur but don’t have a problem selling these that are 40, 50 yrs, old. I think it shows more respect for the animal then throwing it in a landfill, but we respect all viewpoints at Vintage JoAnn.

Come in soon and try on a hat! View more hats here: http://www.vintagejoann.com/photo-gallery/?lzkfile=Hats%2F

I had a great time antiqueing with Rick on Sun and found some incredible bargains on vintage hats that will be passed on to you hat lovers. I’ve got new hats in velvet, tweed, and feathers and wool from 1930′s through the 60′s. Today I acquired 2 more fun and cuddly soft faux fur coats, silk dresses, embroidered and sequined jackets.

Before I could catch my breath my friend, Julie M, stopped by with her cute daughter to give me some vintage finds she found shopping in Dover today.
Several retro 60′s and 70′s blouses (love that leopard) and a fabulicious curly lamb wool cape that has a lovely black satin lining. I want to keep it but My dressing room is exploding as I type, no doubt..
Roxie, one of my red hat ladies stopped by looking for cool stuff for their ST. Paddy’s day parade and left with a pair of kick ass rhinestone and lucite shoes. All in all, a good day, plus a few sales.
I even managed to cook a dinner. Hope Rick doesn’t keel over in shock!!!!
