What I Wore to the Antique Auction Fashion meets Vintage

Labor Day is an important holiday for people who enjoy going to auctions.
I decided to get out of the house this Labor Day and enjoy visiting friends at an antique auction.
What does someone such as myself who loves fashion and bling wear to an auction ?
Comfortable clothes.
The Sketcher shoes shown are old and worn down , I just love them...brought from Zappos eons ago.
The brown top is from Chicos, brought at a local consignment shop, it has cap sleeves, a style I wear instead of tank tops.
The jeans are the usual, my brand for my jeans and slacks is Boston Proper Paris Fit.
The tote and the shoulder strap purse, wow, I have owned them and used them for years, both brought at a local consignment shop a long time ago.
The purse is circa 1970's.
Notice, no diamonds or rhinestones, or even a bracelet, and yet, my jewelry really shows well, is comfortable.
I do not wear diamonds or rhinestones to auctions because of possible damage to the jewelry.
All of the jewelry is vintage..3 necklaces grouped together..heavy but smooth as silk and a joy to wear.
So, even when going to an auction, one can have fashion chic looks without breaking the bank.
The vintage blend, the only thing new item I wore that day was Boston Proper Paris Fit jeans

Grand Opening of Treasure Seekers Unite Sept 3 & 4

I enjoy as many of the Ning and Social sites on line as possible, the more the merrier.
The owner of this one is a wonderful girl named Angie...she is very special because she strives to have a site that has what members like .
She has changed her site several times, to make it better for the members.
She is having a grand opening event on Sept 3rd and 4th.
This site is for shoppers and sellers to enjoy.
It's also a site to talk, they enjoy talking a lot on this site and you will never be bored.
One member is Father Time, that fellow appears to always say good morning , what a fab way to start the day, a good morning from someone who enjoys the name, Father Time.
I think the group Father Time is on in the mornings  is called Coffee Break...it's one of the many groups you can join on this site free.
Want to know more about selling, or what to know where the shop owners love to talk shop?
Then  join Treasure Seekers Unite.
This is not a paid ad. I have enjoyed Treasure Seekers Unite a long time, and so, I am passing the word to you, because I recommend it.
I have included a link to the site, and a link to my video that tells about ning and social sites and more...I talk to you in the video, no music, just me talking to you..set up like the SNL News Updates format.
So, come on, spread the word, and join Treasure Seekers Unite...a place where you can visit anytime , any day, the site is always open...and it's free to enjoy and see.
Here's the video
And here's the link to the site, http://www.treasureseekersunite.com/
