One Decade Inspires Another!

One decade inspires another in two of our items new to our Etsy store this week! Sometimes, this can mean acquiring a vintage look at a cheaper price than an original if you’re willing to forego authenticity.  I love authentic pieces but sometimes practicality and availability dictates what you can choose.  For example, if you’re going on holiday on the Queen Mary 2, our 1980s,1990s John Neville dress would be ideal for their 1920s Gala Evening.  It’s polyester so it still has that chiffon feel and hardly creases so great for packing for a trip.  Take a look at our Etsy page and I think you’ll be surprised by the price! Leaving you plenty of budget left for the fun of accessorizing your Twenties’ look.  You’ll find her in our Etsy Shop https://www.etsy.com/shop/StardustYearsVintage

 

If you’re looking for the 1950s just click below to find a delightful dress from Richard Shops which, in the 1980s, took inspiration from the 1950s! https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/1878923226/1950s-style-dress-by-richard-shops

I am gradually adding items to our Etsy shop as it gives our customers the opportunity to see our original vintage treasures in more photographic detail but, if you prefer, you can still buy directly from us by emailing Karen on karen@stardustyears.com reserving the item and choosing your preferred shipping option.  Just drop me a line.

Of course, you can just buy through our Etsy shop, itself. The choice is yours and whichever way you choose to treat yourself, you can still contact Karen just to chat about it or ask for additional information.

If you’re looking for a specific style or period piece, or something unique for a special event please don’t hesitate to get in touch as I have a large stock of original vintage items which will take me some time to list on our website or on our Etsy shop.

Hope you’re enjoying a great start to the summer!
