You certainly are Great, GrandmaAgnes!

I am SO excited to rave about GreatGrandmaAgnes's Shop, which is appropriately named after her great grandma (adorable!). I first stumbled upon her shop while searching for those happy models for my "Put a Smile on Showcase"...her photos DEFINITELY made me smile. She is a very active seller, listing more than a couple of new (vintage) items a day! Ooooh MEN, she even has vintage treasures for you guys!

She has a ridiculously attractive SALE going on right now--buy one item, get another 1/2 off! ...And I haven't even begun to describe her fantastic vintage finds.

But instead of listening to me go on and on, check out the shop! And my personal favorites:

Take a ride on the ElleTrain!

Now we take a look at a seller who recently received some questionable press. She was featured on Regretsy.com for one of her pieces, but I adore her because she embraces it with a, "well they say there's no such thing as bad press...right?" in her shop Announcement. Well Elletrain, it's time for some extra-good press, because I love your shop!
What I love about her shop is her insane shoe section! She features just as many vintage shoes as she does dresses, and who doesn't appreciate a good vintage shoe section? The sizes range about 6.5-9, so she's  covering a lot of us. 
And Regretsey.com dress pick aside (which is not...THAT bad), she has some really lovely dresses. Like her gingham dress...I want that! 
She loves ballet, I love ballet...she loves vintage...I love her! So check out the shop. She's really wonderful!

VioletaVintage...just as endearing as it sounds.

Bright red lips pop from these fantastic photos of VioletaVintage's fabulous collection of vintage apparel. She comes from Barcelona, and she brings all the style of Spain into her gorgeous vintage shop. She updates with new pristine vintage items regularly, displays cheap international shipping, and offers a 10% discount to all returning customers! Believe it or not, it doesn't end there! She has two other Etsy shops:

Fresh as mint, sweet as plum: Mintplum on Etsy


Mintplum has only had a shop since May 16th, but boy are we glad she's here. She lives up to the words in her profile that say she loves luxurious fabrics and striking textiles because all of the items in her shop are so special. And affordable! It's always amazing to stumble upon a shop that isn't just out to make money, but someone who you can tell really adores vintage clothing and wants to share her eye with the rest of the world. So to the rest of the world: check out her shop... immediately!

Cherry Bloom Vintage

There's no mystery as to why Cherry Bloom Vintage is my second victim. She is a stay at home mom with a daughter and still finds the time to list fresh vintage pieces nearly everyday. All 200 feedback comments are not only positive, but she seems to have some "fans" out there. In mostly every vintage Etsy clothing store there are a couple of swamp-monster vintage pieces that makes you wonder what ever possessed the seller to pick them up...but that is NOT the case here. I browsed every one of her 79 items and smiled at them all. OH, did I mention her prices are cheep cheep cheep?!!

I've got a weakness for puffy sleeves and that little pink rose is to die for.

I personally adore belts that clasp in the middle like this one.

 These shoes could be in any shoe store today and would sell like wildfire...the fact that they're vintage makes them extra-special.

Bipolarbettygoods says, "Absolutely infatuated with this seller. I check her store at least once a day...."

You go, GoGoVintage!

Here is why I love GoGoVintage's Shop:
GoGoVintage offers garments from a wide variety of Eras that are both affordable and in good vintage condition. Her prices are totally reasonable and she features a killer sale section! She clearly has an affinity for vintage dresses (as do I) and she has over 100 dresses for sale as of 6/25/10! All of her 65 feedback comments are positive and from the comments I gather that she packages her items in a special way for her customers. Plus, her model seems to be having a great time, which makes me want some of that.
So do yourself a favor and check it out! 

Here's some of her items that caught my eye:
Gotta love a good ol' ROMPER!


This skirt makes my heart beat a little faster...


Sigh. Who doesn't have a weakness for lace.
