If you're like me you are drawn to clothing and fashion accessories that shout "old","worn"Rare"ect.....Ever since I was a little girl dress-up was always the most fun at grandmas.I have been collecting,buying and re-selling vintage fashions for 5 yrs now and I am hooked.My first stops always include estate sales of any kind.Estate not garage sales.There's a difference.You will find anything from linens,gloves,clothes,military uniforms,textiles,hats,purses ect! Things were definately made better back then!The detail and quality can't be found now a days.Number one tip:BUY WHAT YOU LIKE.....NOT WHAT YOU THINK WILL SELL FOR MORE.Number 2 tip:BUY SOMETHING THAT JUMPS OUT AT YOU.....INSTEAD OF ONLY HAVING ONE SPECIFIC ITEM/STYLE/COLOR IN MIND.Number 3 tip:SHOW UP BROKE AND LEAVE TO THE ATM IF YOU FIND SOMETHING YOU REALLY REALLY WANT.IF ITS MEANT TO BE IT WILL BE THERE WHEN YOU GET BACK.
