I am always anxious for it to get cold enough to require wearing gloves...and it's finally cold enough in Texas to wear them. But I'm not talking about any old glove. I am talking about vintage gloves. I love vintage gloves and I own quite a few.

So, I blog about vintage a lot...but I don't have many pictures of me actually wearing my vintage finds. So, I've decided to start a new series called "Wearing Vintage" on Mondays. I will try to overcome my camera shyness and share pictures of me out and about wearing vintage clothing. So here is the first attempt...Ok, Ok, so it's not my face...but I absolutely LOVE these shoes. I found them at Gratitude Vintage and I wear them with just about anything I can.

[caption id="attachment_331" align="aligncenter" width="640"] Beaded Black Purses[/caption] It's the season for PARTIES!!! Along with the perfect dress...you need the perfect little beaded purse!!  Sure, you can go to the stores and purchase a purse that everyone else will have...OR...you can visit the vintage store and find the most beautiful and unique little purse for your occasion.

I love cardigans for the fall and winter. They are the single-most versatile piece of clothing for the season. It's quite easy to dress them up or down, layer them over a simple T for extra warmth or use them as a cover over those leggins (if you're butt conscious). You can also find some of the most lady-like and beautiful pieces that will flatter that LBD or wear it as a top over that skin-tight jeans for a night out on the town.  While I can't buy or wear all the beautiful ones I've found...I can at least share...
