Vintage Double
What is the craziest purchase you have made on ebay?

I bought a Double Decker chocolate bar with a best before date of 11 Jan 89 a couple of years ago for £25. Yes you did read that right - but it was a charity auction. I have also bought 3 vintage Tranmere Rovers shirts for £77, £75 and £75 but then i do collect them!
You have to explain more and tell me how much you paid! Who is Gart? What is a panda hat?

I bought unrestricted access to someone's right breast for £11 (or thereabouts) - never took them up on the offer, though.

My wife would have killed me.

Unveil a New You: How Vintage Hair Clips are Becoming the Ultimate Bridal Accessory

After the ceremony is complete, many brides opt to let their hair down… literally.  The “I do’s” are done and the celebration can begin, which is why so many “Mrs.”es opt to alter their overall look before entering the reception arena. 

  1. I’ve even seen some brides pull an Oscar worthy performance and change wardrobes altogether... for the truly fabulous for sure!  But regardless of what is (or isn’t) in a bride’s wedding budget, a great number of newly wed wives will show up to their reception looking slightly different than they did just minutes before, even if their only change is that “new wife glow.”

More often than not, however, a great number of brides will take off their veil and replace it with something a little more maintainable, but since the veil is such a distinguishing trademark for brides, many have found themselves still wanting a standout hair accessory.  Enter: Vintage Hair Clips.

These beautifully crafted hair ornaments deserve some serious snaps.  Showing up everywhere from runways to local bridal shows, these tiny treasures have brides doing double takes all over the US.  Not only do they look absolutely stunning, but vintage hair accessories truly have a luster unmatched with old world charm and timeless twinkle.

From simple and chic to bold and daring, these era inspired gems come in a wide array of designs and price points, making them an easy fit to every bride’s style, taste and budget.  And if inspiration strikes, an artsy bride can take these ideas to her local crafts store and make one of her very own!  It’s a perfect DIY, money saving project!
