Beige, Nude, Blush Collection


Tonight is an auction night! Grab your carpal tunnel medicine and Beatle CDs because it's going to be a good one.

Tomorrow we'll be listing our Beige, Nude, Blush collection - a romantic series of vintage dresses in the most irresistible palette. The Spring-Summer 2011 runways are all over this trend, but I'm a big cohort because these colors look STUNNING on virtually everyone.

Our latest collection will include midi to maxi dresses, skirts, lots of crocheted lace, Gunne Saxe inspired blouses, and blush to mocha tones. You haven't seen the '70s revival quite like this before, and as always, every piece has been hand-selected by me.

Excited? So am I!

Also, if you're an Alameda Addict, be sure to check out our new DOMAIN! That's right, we are now centrally located at www.alamedavintage.net . Bookmark the page and be sure to check back.

Favorite Dress of the Week


Vintage '60s PEACH LACE Mod Mini Dress - Alameda Vintage

This truly was a restoration piece when I found it, but I'm so glad I took the risk. It was originally covered in blue stains, probably 40 years old stains. Like a similar dress I sold last week, it was also maxi length. I cut off the long skirt and soaked the stains in Oxyclean. To my sheer delight, it worked.

The dress is now absolutely PERFECT.

A true Cinderella story.
