Sue, is it just me or has Etsy vintage gotten noticeably more expensive in the last few months? I feel like I used to be able to find a lot more dresses in the $20-30 range.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Speaking of vintage, does anyone want plus-size vintage undergarments? I have a small stack of bras and girdles I've worn maybe once each.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Would it be ... rude to ask sizes?

Holli, I don't look at vintage stuff on a regular basis, and generally I'm looking at plus-sized clothes, which are always fairly expensive. In general I find pricing for vintage on Etsy tends to be pretty high, esp after you add in shipping.

Not at all! They don't have sizes in them, but going by my size when I wore/bought them, the bras are probably 42DD, the girdles XXL.

Dang. I was hoping to help you with the bras, but they are too large in the band and too small in the cup.

I think I'm spoiled by my local vintage store, is all.
Have you seen the stuff Top Runway makes? They do vintage repro with custom sizing. I haven't bought from them yet, but they look awfully pretty.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Man. I am progressing, but I am so stinking tired.
Sunroom is done. Living room is cleared of stuff, but furniture needs to be rearranged and cleaned under. Dining room is done. Maybe I can do the decluttering in the guest bath & guest bed, and one more round of dishes in the kitchen.
The thing is that I'll be teaching all day tomorrow and performing at night. And then theoretically church before the concert. So really today was the best time to get stuff done. In my head during the week I thought I had Saturday morning free while the SO taught. But no, I'm doing most of this workshop. Which I forgot while I was sick. AND I don't have my vocals pipes back and both morning and night are going to be pipes intensive. Blargh.
