We've been working fast and furiously to list all the new vintage and vintage inspired goodies we've got to show you. For 2008 we'll be adding lots of great dresses to wear for proms and spring/summer weddings. 50's and 60's style dresses with bright floral prints are supposed to be a big fashion trend this year, as will the 70's style maxi or patio dresses. And we will be offering lovely vintage and reproduction styles in those looks very soon. We've also got a great selection of bombshell pinup style swimsuits and dresses coming up. Perfect rockabilly looks for Viva Las Vegas. So bookmark us, as we're adding things almost every day.
