Project Vintage: Eye of the Tiger

By -
Unintentional Cat Week has me reminiscing about carved tiger's eye cameo rings. These things were a big deal for stylish men in the 70s and 80s. Instead of the usual dainty woman's profile, these were images of roman soldiers or knights. I would love to find one small enough for my girly hands. But this striated stone is available in a variety of designs and carvings.

Retro Shoes

I love vintage shoes, but between the heavy wear and narrow fit, I have to indulge my wants with fabulous reproductions. Mary Janes, t-straps, peep toes, low heels. If it looks like it's from the 20s-50s, I'm there! I like to wear them with Victorian jewelry and funky outfit. How do you wear retro heels?

Sweet Sleep Bra

I've been waiting Anthropologie's ruffled bra and panty set to go on sale. What it lacks in the sex appeal of Anya's retro ensemble, it makes up for in cute ribbons and ruffles. The set is available in cream and pink, rose and black, or grey and black, but I prefer the dark of the latter to offset the sweetness of the look. The bra was $58, which is silly for a cotton, wireless sleep bra, but the price has dropped to $29.95. That's at least worth thinking about. $30 for panties, however, is still laughable.
