Today's clothes finds....


Love the bow accents on bottom, and pretty pastels in this dress. A classic shift dress, but dressed up with the bows.



Pretty house type dress. Floral with shades of pink.






Gorgeous pink toile look dress. A baby shower maybe? With pearls of course! LOVE the cutaway shoulders!



Beautiful and full skirted, with green tones. Lovely for a garden party.

Houseware's Mad men style...


A lovely gold rimmed highball set...



Decanter set, with liquor names etched in... Very classy!



Mod style dial phones...

Purple power....


This lavender suit is the bomb! It would not need much for jewelry with the fur lined neck. Just some stately real pearl earrings. Maybe, a pearl or gold bracelet. Or just some good big diamond rings. Black pumps, unless you had the same color as dress.



Lingerie from 1960...


These were great for under a party dress. No straps or high backs.


A typical conical style (bullet) bra of the day.



A white version of the merrywidow Betty wore in black.




Another bullet style bra





This one is good under party dresses that are not strapless.









Betty's jewelry...

How pretty and dainty these would be on any day.


A gorgeous wide pearl choker.




A fantastic broach with aurora borealis and pearls
for sweater or cardigan.




My favorite pears so far!




A beautiful aurora borealis-green broach for your sweater.


Today's finds for Betty!


A different collar version of the classic shirtdress.



Low neckline version of shirtdress. Note skinny belt, classic for this timeperiod.



These colors were very popular for the early 1960's. This is a shift dress.




Also a shift dress. Popular for around the house or errands. Can be dressed up for a lunch date with a handbag and necklace and matching earrings.








This one is my favorite of the day. But, as with many dresses I've found, they are ALL S-M size.


I must have really been in the mood for greens and blues! Any of these could be dressed up with your classic pearl choker and stud earrings.
