...last night....

...I started going through some of my jewelry...the conclusion?....I have a LOT...and it really is time to thin the collection...found a Miriam Haskell from the 50's that I have never worn...white milk glass leaves and rice shaped milk glass beads...very cute...took photos today....will be listed on Etsy by the end of the week along with another 50's-60's Japanese milk glass collar necklace...also very cute...

...so jewelry is forthcoming...as are handbags...I have some here and a bunch in storage...I'm going to be busy...

...finally!

...posted three new listings today on my etsy shop at www.topkatvintage.etsy.com ...hoping to post more tomorrow...I need to dig through the jewelry collection because there is a ton that I don't wear anymore and I'm sure someone out there will appreciate it as much as I have...

...so much going on....I think it's time to really sit down and seriously make a schedule...because leaving the list in my head gets not enough accomplished....and that makes Kat an Unhappy Camper...

...here is something from Vintage Venus....how I wish I had more wall space for their posters....

For Coffee Lovers

...for once, I think it's time to get to bed early...these 2 a.m. nights lately are not helping me...

The Bible...

...yes, it's that time of year again...when I purchase the Bible...otherwise known as the September issue of Vogue...in all its glorious 500+ pages...

...I haven't gotten very far, but two teasers from the cover got my attention...

--40's is the Look

--Boots are back


...boots are ALWAYS a good thing...but especially in the fall...there is nothing like a new pair of Fall boots....now I just have to save up to buy them...


...so far this is the pair that I'm in love with....

...from Elizabeth and James, the line that Mary-Kate and Ashley Olson design...these are just fabulous...the only thing that would make them better is if they came in grey...like a dark charcoal...yum....but the camel will work...

...fresh and new!

...you know that feeling of having a new notebook...new pen...and the first time you open the notebook, you hear the crack of the binding...the page is bright white, waiting for that first stroke of ink...mmmm....this is how it feels...

...welcome!...bienvenue!...wilkommen!...benvenuto!....a small corner of the internet for me to wax poetic about vintage, collectibles, my shoe/boot fetish and all the joyous things that run about my head on some days...

...hope you'll stick around for the ride....it's bound to be fun, fabulous, and more than a little interesting...
