Oh I look out for cowboy boots all the time and havent found any for ages how lucky were you Love the swim suit too what a bargain.
ReplyDelete@ La Dama
ReplyDeleteI thought the poodles showed a family resemblance. lol
@ Helga I will be a tad worried if more people find poodles this week.. Just cause it could mean that they are planning on taking over our planet with those possesed rhinestone eyes!
I hope you find the perfect swimsuit for this summer soon. =)
@ Janelle aka Nelly
I too have been peeking here and there for cowboy boots. These are my first pair I hope to come across some more vintage ones in the near future. I want to wear them with summer dresses!! =D
I can't believe you and I have matching poodles! That's made my week, we are on the same wavelength.
ReplyDeleteI love everything especially the cowboy boots and the poodles. Well done! xxx
PS That photo with you and the roses is stunning!
MAZEL TOV ON YOUR FAT SCORE! :D
ReplyDeleteLove everything!
Got the same poodle but mine got green eyes.
Tried to sell him on Etsy for a long time but no one wanted him.

Great finds! I really need to keep my eye open for vintage silverware- so much nicer than the boring, new stuff I currently have!
ReplyDeleteAnd the photo of you and the roses is gorgeous!
@Vintage Vixen
ReplyDeleteI was weirded out about the poodles because I was about to do my post but I was catching up on everyone else's blog.. then I was like.. OMG Vix beat me to it!! lol
@Little Rascal
Green eyes!! =O
I wonder how many colors of eyes these poodles came with. He must have not sold because he is meant to be owned by you. He might be a Uncle to my yellow eyes one. haha ;)
@Alyssa Bee
I think I have 3 different brands of this starburst pattern in my collection. I don't think it matters, they all have starburst on them and that is what I like. I have came across some really pretty floral vintage silverware sets too. I agree they made them nicer back then than they do now.
Those poodles are demented! In a good way. What a set of amazing bargains! x
ReplyDeleteWow what fabulous finds yet again - the poodle connection between you and Vix this week is very cool, and most unexpected! Loving that little mirror.

LOVE me some Oneida Twin Star! I have been looking EVERYWHERE for a set or at least a few pieces! For some reason, it is really hard to come by. My husband's aunt apparently has the entire set. I could never ask her for it so I will just continue my search. Kudos to you for finding your pieces and for the rest of your vintage-tastic bounty!
ReplyDelete@Llara lol @ demented poodles.. I think I have come across a few of those in real life. =O
ReplyDelete@Comtesse de ferveur
The mirror makes me laugh.. it is so darn flashy and gaudy. I brought it with me yesterday when I was out and used it on a sunny day. I swear that think could direct planes to land! lol
@Tara (Betty)I might have a few Oneida in my mismatched little collection, but I have been coming across some that say

I haven't yet found out when these were manufactured yet.
All together I think I have at least 4 different types of starburst cutlery.. My future children will probably wonder about this at some point. lol
Maybe you should let your husbands Aunt know just how much you adore her silverware. That way if she ever plans to get rid of it, it will hopefully end up in your hands.
