After my search for a formal, vintage, cheap-ish, homecoming/Prom dress, I realized something. That crapdangit, Etsy is amazing.
Now. Let me tell you. There are crazy insane amounts of cute dresses, but, dude. No good vintage formal ones. That aren't $500. Anyway. I "succeeded" and walked away with this one. And, hopefully, it fits me.
Anway.
Here's the List of Awesomeness.
lorimarsha- A little "out there", but so fun and random and eclectic. Makes me wanna wear super bright colors.
ramonawest- BY FAR, my absolute favorite vintage Etsy shop. Gooooorgeous clothes, clear photographs, and sigh....
blackvintagedress- This is where I got the dress mentioned above. I love the concept of this store and the seller was super awesome to work with.
muskokavintage- A great arrray of some cheaper vintage pretties. Verra, verra cute.
citygirl101- Some very pretty formal dresses in here.
moonshinevintage- Not a ton of clothes, but has some really pretty pieces. I get very distracted by all the other vintage pretties in there. Can't say that's bad though. :D
tialeyvintage- The epitome of coolness. Not even kidding. Tons of awesome stuff in here.
melsvanity- Lots and lots o' shoes. Very cool.
lizarietz- Some absolutely stunning designed pieces in here. I love the idea of supporting independant fashion designers. Gorgeous!
ouma- Some poofy, fun dresses in here.
duchessvintage- Cuteness galore.
persephonevintage- Another big, big favorite. REALLY gorgeous pieces.
myfavoritevintage- Sigh. All I can say is sigh.
rubypearl- Some more really funky and fresh handmade pieces.
fringe- Ummmmm. These are all crazy gorgeous. I think they would be a perfect addition to any fall and winter wardrobe.
bonzie- Ohhhh. These handmade shrugs are beaaaautiful! They'd pair perfectly with a simple, elegant dress. Like this would be stunning paired with a simple, silk, white dress, would it not? Love.
hende- Holy smokes, pretty. All these pieces are whimsical and dreamy. Love.
whichgoose- These little "crowns" are amazing. And super affordable. And dainy and fairy-esque. I need.
Random Notes:
New post is up at The Art is Found. I decided to take this one in a little different direction and haven't finished yet. So, check back sometime later for that .:D
And I'm so excited that The Sequined Shoe is hosting the RAK at TAIF this prompt.
And I want to say a HUGE thank you for making my first 'round of Etsying such a success. New Shop Update will hopefully be on October 11th. And a few pocket journals will be going up later this week.
Check back in the couple of days. I have some layouts, random projects, cute outfits, art journaling, and hopefully some photos that I want to share.
Have a great week!

that dress will be so perfect on you! :) If it doesn't fit, you could always nip and tuck it. I do that a lot with vintage finds.

I haven't checked out the blog list you have provided yet but don't worry--i will. lol
P.s. Question for you.
What all catalogs are you subscribed to? because.... I get quite a few, but I'm needing some new inspiration.
I get UO, Anthro, Toast, Free People, Pottery Barn, Paper Source and....i think that's it.
But if you have some AWESOME catalog that has served you well, PLEASE let me know!
thanks! <3
Okay, "crapdangit" is my new favorite word! :D
