You may remember some concerns from a while back that New London's lovely downtown vintage store was moving its sparkle and glam out of the ghetto and into the Mystic Seaport area... I'm happy to inform all that care that Peacock Feathers is staying put - for now.
Katie and I sort of made our may over there by accident last Friday after having been literally frozen with some severe cold shoulder by a normally nice owner of a lovely downtown (*cough*pretentious*cough*) coffee shop/martini bar. Perhaps he was grumpy with us for defacing his "martini bar" sign to make it say "martin bar." Whatever. I'm off topic, as always.
Just to see if Peacock Feathers was still around over in the middle of the alley or if they'd already packed up, Katie and I walked down down there. Sure enough, they were still there! And still WONDERFUL. And not moving after all. This, obviously, called for dancing and photos.
Gorgeous vintage long silver gloves, a basket of suspenders.
Crazy flag suspenders
AWESOME cowboy boots. Seriously, who would wear them? I definitely like them but which famous person would wear them? YES, EXACTLY.
Britney Spears was my guess, too... which sort of ruins them for me.
Katie found a pretty vintage prom dress :)
CUTE secretary-style shirt
Mmm... hatbox. I want one so bad.
Harlequin love &hearts
Sweet mary-jane heels
For some reason, Katie really wanted this "Phyllis" belt.
