Fashionable Cats Love Hats

UnderWired has a small, but very nice selection of vintage hats on display at Sew On & So Forth.  One of my cats, "Kitty," helps me select which millinery confections should be displayed in the shop.  She has spectacular taste and a discerning eye.

Cats and Vintage Advice

Back by popular demand, here's a picture of one of my cats:

I am so hungover.  Am I laying on a blanket on a Christmas box?  What the F_

And now, I'd like to give some vintage house cleaning advice.  The first bit is cheating, because I already said this on UnderWired's Facebook page:

 But here's a bonus:
 Trouble getting blood stains out of your favorite vintage angora sweater?  Stop getting in knife fights!  This tried and true method will have you skipping around town in sparkling clean finery in no time.

Hi!

I've missed you.  I am on my lunch break, with little time to write, but I find this other post by Elizabeth Cline to be most interesting, especially for the vintage-clothing-minded individual.  Or anyone who loves clothing and the earth and people all at the same time!  This article makes some very important observations and points: http://www.etsy.com/storque/read/the-history-of-a-cheap-dress-12751/?ref=fp_blog_title
