I decided to check it out and especially looked at my photos from more than a year ago. All I can say is "baby, you've come a long way"! I really didn't know how to work my camera before 2015. I knew how to press the shutter button and "boom!" I took a picture. I knew nothing about camera settings or the triangle; this allows you to get correct exposure. Here's some images I took from one of my more recent photo shoots with Piper. We visited Dothan Botanical Gardens. Most all of these vintage clothing items are in my shop at www.sassysistervintage.etsy.com.<br />

I wanted to create a dark and kind of eery feel with black dresses and dead weeds. I noticed across the street and down the road a bit there were, in fact, some interesting dead weeds. And of course, I already had the black dresses. Azurea commented that they looked like witches. I insisted that they were the kindest and most beautiful kind of witches (because they are). Love these girls! Take a look at the witch hunt and then some sweet girl photography.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
They are off on their hunt!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
They got a little lost and were a bit confused in the maze of dead weeds.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-s1ZqsVTRJ0U/UvF9kC6v02I/AAAAAAAADZM/29-l6AUnaOk/s1600/IMG_0732.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-s1ZqsVTRJ0U/UvF9kC6v02I/AAAAAAAADZM/29-l6AUnaOk/s1600/IMG_0732.JPG" height="416" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Finally, among the weeds they decided what they would sacrifice!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/--Laeh_mNwYk/UvF9ymWwLWI/AAAAAAAADZU/Wv5vRbugOwY/s1600/IMG_0737.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/--Laeh_mNwYk/UvF9ymWwLWI/AAAAAAAADZU/Wv5vRbugOwY/s1600/IMG_0737.JPG" height="326" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They are giving it a bit more consideration......</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
But then, Azurea saw something moving in the trees and she got scared!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
So they decided to return home and change into their "sweet girl" clothes. Piper chose a<a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/177733424/vintage-1950s-skirt-50s-white-organza?ref=shop_home_feat_3"> 1950s Organza Skirt</a> with a <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/102590888/vintage-beaded-shell-1960s-sequined-top?ref=shop_home_active_11">gorgeous beaded 1960s top</a>.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Azurea decided on a remake of a <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/178240135/gone-with-the-wind-dress-antebellum?ref=shop_home_active_7">Gone with the Wind Antebellum Dress</a></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Piper decided to change into a <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/178176613/vintage-1940s-dress-40s-pale-pink?ref=shop_home_feat_4">1940s Pale Pink Chiffon Dress</a> and a <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/178233370/vintage-1940s-hat-40s-pale-pink-hat-pink?ref=shop_home_active_6">1940s lace hat</a>. She was in very deep thought. How would she let him down easily? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/--Kqr36yAWTE/UvGAFkPLrdI/AAAAAAAADZ8/fmSl5-gXpHo/s1600/IMG_0794.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/--Kqr36yAWTE/UvGAFkPLrdI/AAAAAAAADZ8/fmSl5-gXpHo/s1600/IMG_0794.JPG" height="640" width="430" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Finally, she had an idea....... she knew how much Azurea liked him.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-GJGUKiXoAto/UvGARbCCF7I/AAAAAAAADaE/9E4QZzc_JOA/s1600/IMG_0821.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-GJGUKiXoAto/UvGARbCCF7I/AAAAAAAADaE/9E4QZzc_JOA/s1600/IMG_0821.JPG" height="640" width="430" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Azurea was so excited, she now had the man of her dreams and changed into her 1960s Salmon Pink Nightgown. (it will be in the shop soon!)</div>

If you happen to be a <a href="https://www.facebook.com/SassySisterVintage?ref=hl">Facebook</a> friend of mine you've probably already seen our most recent photo shoot. Most of these awesome vintage pieces are in the shop too. I've included a link to each item just in case you want a closer look. I'm behind the camera taking the pics and Piper is doing the modeling. She's awesome isn't she? All pics taken right here in my new home that has turned out to be a great place to photograph! If you have any questions regarding the mostly 70s pieces with some 40s and 50s mixed in, please don't hesitate to ask. Reach me in my <a href="http://www.sassysistervintage.etsy.com/">Etsy</a> shop at<a href="http://www.sassysistervintage.etsy.com/"> www.sassysistervintage.etsy.com.</a></div>

Finally, Piper and me were able to get together again. My family and I have been in the process of moving into a new home. I forgot how stressful and time consuming this was but I sure am happy to be here! I'm loving the spots that Piper and me chose for the photography and I'm able to get out props that have been packed for a while. It will only get better from here as I continue to decorate this new place and hunt for new (new to me anyway) items for the home. Stay tuned!</div>

The minds of both Piper and me are able to get together and create some stunning photography. I've had a number of people ask who does the photography? I'm photographing with both Piper and me styling. And of course she's modeling. So glad I've met a talented girl who see's the world through the same vintage eyes I do!</div>

The sale, conducted by my friend Justin and his mom Pat advertised Victorian clothing. We just don't get much of that here in the deep South. I really wanted to get my hands on it. I was probably about the 50th person in line although I got there an hour early. I was still the first one to the clothing.....I'm fast! My favorite find of the sale was this amazing turn of the century Edwardian/Victorian green wool suit. What an amazing find! And even more amazing was the condition, especially for a piece of clothing of this age. Check it out! <br />

I've included the flaws above which are a small spot (about dime size) on the front bottom of the suit. It is minimal and not really noticeable unless pointed out, but worth noting. It is the pic in the top right corner. Another similar one on the top front of the skirt, again not really noticeable, especially when worn with the jacket because the jacket covers it up (the largest pic). The last is a pin hole on the back/side of the skirt. As you can see, it's super tiny and hard to find. How often do you find a piece of clothing made of wool that's 100 years old that hasn't had a "moth party" on it?<br />

We finally sold our house, the one in the post below this one. We were pleased that it sold in 2 1/2 months on the market. Not amazing but not bad either. We had to be out of it and we are now living in apartments near our new house that is being built. I will post some pics of it soon! In the meantime enjoy some vintage clothing.</div>

What makes Domenico’s work especially stand out, however, is the artist’s unique subject matter and sensibility.</span><br />

We went around to the back door and it was partially ajar. We thought what the heck, we'll just peek inside. It was a bit scary and pretty icky. Old, dirty blankets piled up everywhere. Papers from a drawer spread all over the place. Dirty clothes in one corner. Not old ones, just dirty ones. We heard the back door creak a little bit and we immediately turned around really fast. We were scared! It was just the wind though. We walked out of the house and all of a sudden 2 cars pulled up. One with a woman and the other with 2 men. They kindly asked us to leave since this was private property. No problem. We walked to our van a bit embarrassed and left. This got me to thinking about other abandoned houses and I started looking for pics online. Here's some:<br />

I tried to pick a favorite but had a hard time. I tend to like the smaller more homey looking ones. Sort of like the 2 right above. What's your favorite?<br />

The sale advertised lots of vintage clothing. My goal was to get the clothing. I got to the sale about 20 minutes before it started and looked around to see if I had any competition. None. There's a certain look to people that buy vintage clothing. None of them had that look...... my luck. They let us in at 8am sharp and I walked right over to the closet of 1940s dresses and pulled out about 25 of them. The lady who wore them was plus sized so all the dresses were in this category. A rarity for women of this time. Many of these dresses have already sold but I've still got some in the shop and some I haven't put in yet. Plus I added one other beautiful 40s dress that I finally got around to putting in the shop. All of the descriptions are linked.<br />

Lorena was 29 years old and Henry was 26 1/2. People called him Hank. They met in Southern California in a cafe. A group of soldiers walked in and she was immediately attracted to him but she thought he looked too young. Evidently he was attracted to her because they were married 4 months later. At the time, she was working for Lockheed (building military aircraft) and he was a soldier in the U.S. military. She was originally from Gallup, New Mexico and he was originally from Buffalo, New York. Soon after they married he was flown off to Europe to defend our country in WWII. He was an infantry soldier.<br />

My grandfather died shortly after going into combat in France. This is how my grandma received word of his death. Through a telegram. My mom was 9 months old when he died. He was around my mom, his daughter, for a total of 3 days. All of the time he was away fighting in WWII (in Europe). Hank and Lorena were married for just over 1 1/2 years.</div>

These pictures were taken from a book that my mom made for each one of her kids. She is a genealogists and did hundreds of hours of research and copying to put these books together. They go back to the Mayflower (11 generations) to our day. This book is a treasure and a price could never be put on it.

We see them about once a month. More often we're at their house and sometimes they come to ours. They live outside of Tallahassee, FL in a home on 40 acres that they designed and did a great deal of the work on themselves. They are hands on people, both visionaries when making something out of nothing and they love to entertain. They were also antique dealers for about 10 years so they have some very cool collections. They love to travel too. Here are some cool things at their place<br />

From time to time I'll get a message from a customer or even a personal friend asking if a particular piece of clothing will fit. Even after I've given them the measurements, they just aren't sure. It would be wonderful if I could invite everyone to my studio to try the clothing on but in 99.9% of cases that's just not possible.</div>

Here are my best tips for deciding if a piece of vintage clothing will fit when buying online. (I'm mostly going to focus on dresses since they are a top seller.)<br />
<br />
First off and most important, pay attention to measurements and not a particular size category that an online dealer may put the piece in. A size category is a guess or estimate and could vary greatly. It may or may not be accurate. Also, the size marked on vintage clothing is different that the sizing today. Never rely on the size marked on a piece of vintage clothing or you may end up getting something that is considerably ill fitting. For example, I wear a size 4 in modern sizes but around a size 12 in clothing from 50 years ago. The most important measurements are the bust, waist and hips (unless the dress has a full skirt, then there should be lots of room and the measurement, if any is given, isn't as important. This measurement will usually be marked "free" or "open".)<br />
<br />
The easiest way to decide if something will fit would be to get a measuring tape and a dress with a similar cut that you already have in your closet and compare the measurements of that one against the measurements of the one you're interested in. In reality I realize that you may not have a similar cut dress. Additionally, many times the measurements of vintage dresses can be quite different that the measurements of modern dresses. But in best case scenario I would suggest doing this first. Below are 3 dresses similar enough in style that measurements can be compared:<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
My second suggestion would be to take a measuring tape and measure around your bust, waist and hips leaving a half inch or so for movement within the clothing. Write these measurements down and refer to them when deciding if a certain piece of vintage will fit. Take consideration into the cut and if it's supposed to have a snug fit or if there's supposed to be more breathing room. For instance, if a dress is supposed to be super fitted then it's okay to not add a 1/2" or so.

A reputable vintage clothing dealer will give you accurate measurements. <b>Remember to ask questions before buying if you have any. </b> Most online vintage clothing dealers want you to ask any questions you may have regarding the fit or condition so that it's a clean and seamless transaction. If there's additional measurements you would like that you feel should have been included, don't hesitate to ask. Also, remember to read shop policies before purchasing. This way you'll know if the shop owner accepts returns, how your package will be sent and when it'll be sent.<br />
<br />
Remember, many pieces of vintage can always be taken in, shortened or altered a bit if needed. Better to buy just a bit too large than too small. If a piece seems just a tad big email the shop owner to see if the piece is made in such a way that it can be altered.<br />

<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><i>Why shop vintage?</i></span><br />
<br />
I've noticed especially in the past several years that "mall" clothing has become particularly cheap looking and cheaply made, everything from the fabric to the construction. It does not hold up well and falls apart easily, Additionally, it seems frumpy and untailored. <br />
<br />
You've heard the term "history repeats itself", clothing is no exclusion. Styles that you see today are styles from years past. The difference is that when you buy authentic vintage you're typically buying something that is superior in quality and construction. And in many cases you have something that is unique and very few other people have. Buying vintage is truly a great way to show off your unique style and it's very much in style!<br />
<br />
<i><span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Mix and Match</span></i><br />
<br />
I personally think a mixture of modern and vintage worn together looks best. Wearing vintage from head to toe can look dated and costume-ish. A good mixture of both is your best bet. Remember that it doesn't have to match perfectly but it just needs to look good together.<br />
