Not So "Tidy Whitey's" @ FrenchBleuVintage








This post has al little more color than my usual White Wednesday. I am just in love with this "Natural Cotton Chemise Dress".

I am venturing into yet another uncharted area for FBV. I usually don't get into clothing ~ vintage or otherwise, but I recently came into an amazing cache of greatness that I must showcase. I wish it was my size. If the response is good ~ I will keep it up, as it was a lot of fun to look for something other than home decor. Its nice to mix things up every now and then. So here is the first series of "Boutique" items I listed in the store. I so wish the green top fit me...if there was ever a reason to stop drinking regular soda, this top is it. And the black espadrilles...oooh Laa Laa ~ they are a size 7.5 by Tommy Hilfiger and in perfect condition. The satin evening bag IS vintage, in the most fabulous color combo of turquiose and cocoa. The satin lining is in perfect shape as well. I am also showing these awesome cotton ruffled European pillow shams. The piping is soft green/grey velvet and there is a pretty raised design pattern in the center. I wish my camera was better so you could really see the detail in these items. Maybe I'll use a new camera by next posting.

Which also brings me to ~ I will be doing a new post every Friday devoted to a special item in the shop called....what else "Frenchbleu Friday" I love spotlighting items you all may have missed previously. I am always looking for fresh feedback from you. I like to hearing if you like my choices or not. I may be out completely in left field with some of my items and I hope you can all help me in my quest for Flea Market retail greatness. Plus ~ its a nice spot for discounts and giveaways:)

Thanks for letting me bounce my ideas off you. As always, please check out Faded Charm for other White Wednesday Wonders.

  7. Dee,

    Good for you, being brave and trying new things! From what I've seen lately, vintage clothing is all the rage. My 19 year old haunts every vintage shop in New York. Wish I had kept my clothes from the 60's and 70's. So does she!

    Good Luck, though I'm sure you won't need it.

  12. Hi Dee,
    Your white items are beautiful as are your non-whites too! I think it's good to shake things up a bit sometimes, it keeps people guessing what you'll do next.

  13. That little purse is just awesome....love it. I took an old vintage purse of mine out of the closet today to wear to a wedding this weekend. I use the same purse day in and day out but still buy new and old ones all the time. I think your new Friday venture is a wonderful one.
