It's hard to believe how warm the weather was last week, when I hopped out into the yard to take shop photos. It's back to grey skies and long sleeves today!

With a full afternoon of sun shining overhead, it felt good to start catching up on listings...taking plenty of breaks for iced drinks along the way! There are still a few more pieces to post from this shoot so I'll be back to share those later in the week. And then I'll be hoping for more sunshine... There are some really special dresses that need photographing!

The sun has been making a sporadic appearance this past week so I've been busying myself with getting Spring separates into the Etsy shop. Here are a few colorful pieces that have just arrived... with a pastel update on the way! I hope you enjoy these colorful pieces. I've been enjoying the oversize 90s pieces that have been popping up on Etsy and in my instagram feed so I'm hoping to add more pieces like the flax blouse and Kenzo jacket in the coming months!

 I'm stopping by to share some new separates that hit the shop over the past week! The 60s bib blouse, 40s taffeta skirt and Blanes suit have a few condition issues and are being listed at special, discounted prices. I'm hoping a clever seamstress can resurrect or create a pattern from that suit jacket - the tailoring is just stunning.
