New Items in Shop

Well now that the holidays are over and we have a long winter ahead, I finally got some new items listed for my shop.  I have been on Etsy over a year now and I love it when I can sell a beautiful old item to a new home. I am hoping the new year has more sales, yes for the money...but more for the thrill of it!

I do feel like I am talking to my self here most of the time, so getting a few more followers would make me post more...but oh well, never been poplar....ha ha..

            so here are my vintage  beauties.

Holiday Dressing

 













Who doesn't owe or love the Little Black Dress? While out hunting for vintage lovelies, I ran across this black dress with that 40's.style. Trying to find info on the label which is a Phoebe, found out that Kay Unger launched the label in the 90s. Kay Unger recognized a void in the marketplace for a cleaner dinner dress and
set out to reinvent the little black dress.
So here is the one that I found that I will be adding to my shop.  Also I made a treasure on Etsy of some beautiful dresses in honor of the LBD. What are you wearing for this holiday season?

Bless You!

 


This is the season to sneeze, have colds and be under the weather just before the holidays. What joy it is! Yes I have a wonderful
cold with lots of sneezing. Here are a few myths and superstitions of why people say," Bless You," after a sneeze.

 1) That when you sneeze your heart stops for a second, so your
      blessed that it starts again.
 2) That sneezing expels your soul from you body.
 3) That blessing someone after a sneeze prevented the plague.
 Any my favorite poem:
Sneeze on Monday for health,       
Sneeze on Tuesday for wealth, 
Sneeze on Wednesday for a letter,  
Sneeze on Thursday for something better, 
Sneeze on Friday for sorrow, 
Sneeze on Saturday, see your sweetheart tomorrow, 
                                                                                        Sneeze on Sunday, safety seek.
Or maybe  people are just sympathetic and care that your sick!!??? 


Well I must of sneezed on Tuesday and Thursday, because on Friday I was offered a job to work in a local hospital in the ER department. It has been a long time coming for me. Since this week my unemployment ran out....even thought it is part time it is still a blessing.  Sick or not, at least my spirit is higher.


No matter where you are at in life, You always have something to be Thankful for and Blessed.......

And I still get to do my love of vintage all the shopping, buying and selling!!!  So here is a few pic's  of upcoming items for the Rare Essence Vintage Etsy shop, (when I am better)  with the previous subject in mind.
