Last year I have acquired an amazing vintage 1970's - 90's New Old stock from an Atlanta Apparel Mart sales associate. She closed her shop years ago and had thousands of items in storage, Lanvin, Valentino, YSL, Diane Von Furstenberg and others.
I have about 1000 pieces from this lot. Most have original tags or are on original cards, Amazing treasure trove. I have been meticulously sorting through and listing all these items on my website, fabulous collection of Lanvin, Valentino, Robin Kahn and tons of 1980's styles.
Kim Loves Vintage has relocated to beautiful North Brooksville, Florida and is in full swing. Full time Online shop and now a retail location inside the Olde Inverness Antique Mall on Pine Street in Inverness, Florida.

You may still be able to get the 2020 spring issue of Pioneer Woman Magazine to read all about Bakelite and try the yummy food Ree is always cooking! This issue was on shelves one week into lockdown last year so it did not get the distribution anticipated so...

5 out of 5 starsExactly what I was looking for. The little “stoppers “ are perfect for keeping the brooch from sliding around.
