Diamante necklace.

The term diamante refers to glittering stones that mimic diamonds. Most diamante stones are foil back, meaning that a thin layer of metal adheres to the bottom facets to enhance the stone's brilliance. These gems are usually made of glass or crystal. This lovely necklace is Art Deco inspired and very unique. Though diamante jewelry isn't made with natural gemstones, it can still command high prices and is always in fashion.

$18.00 (Australian)

Vintage vogue magazine cover.

Insanely gorgeous.

Vogue magazine was founded in 1892 by an American business man Arthur Baldwin Turner. Vogue was a weekly newspaper covering the local social scene, fashion, traditions of high society, social etiquette and also reviewed books, plays and music. The original price was 10 cents. The British Vogue was launched in 1916.

Necklace love

1950's style brooch.

Add a little sparkle.

Shine in this beautiful, sparkling, evening necklace. I am not sure of it's age but possibly from the 1980's? A vintage treasure.

Barbie doll.

My favourite doll... the Barbie. The Barbie doll was invented in 1959 by Ruth Handler, the co-founder of Mattel, whose own daughter was named Barbara. Barbie was introduced to the world at the American Toy Fair in New York City. Barbie's job was to serve as a teenage fashion doll. The Ken doll was named after Ruth's son and was introduced two years after Barbie in 1961.

Bridal traditions.

Something old represents continuity; something new offers optimism for the future; something borrowed symbolizes borrowed happiness; something blue stands for purity, love, and fidelity; and a sixpence in your shoe is a wish for good fortune and prosperity, although this remains largely a British custom.
