Kedettes

I found this ad for shoes in a 1950 Seventeen magazine I got a while back and I was obsessed with them and have been searching for the at least a shoe similar so that I could put holes in and shoelaces. I love that they can be tied in so many ways.  

I saw this picture of another Kedette ad on Casey's Elegant Musings  It's the same shoe as above and I just love the pink color! 


They make think of Toms shoes actually. It wouldn't be hard to add the grommets (is that the right word?)  and lacing. In fact, they already have a shoe that has the grommets in it (except for at the front), the lacing would just have to be changed!

I made this top probably back around September. It is Simplicity 4373 and I made a black full skirt to wear with it, inspired by the picture on the pattern.

I love the look of the red stripes with a black skirt!

New Patterns!










This weekend I went to my favorite store for vintage patterns- Vintage Martini. They have a huge collection of vintage patterns and I love seeing them all. and right by it is an antique mall that had baskets and baskets of vintage patterns most for 99 cents. The only one I don't have a picture of is Anne Adams 4955.
