Title: Fur Capelet and Gloves..Consignment store finds!!!
Post by: Lady Isabella on November 11, 2011, 05:26:38 PM
My daughter and I ventured into a Consignment store yesterday in a neighboring town and found two amazing items. First, a rabbit fur capelet. Color matches her dress beautifully! Second, a pair of brown leather gloves. Super soft with a cute button closer. The caplet was $46 and the gloves $13. I know you must think it's always warm in Arizona, but February can be very cold. Last year we had Snow in March! And of course mornings can be very cold with the afternoons warming up.

The blue fuzzy PJs are NOT part of the costume! LOL

Holy cow!!  When you said "matched perfectly," you weren't kidding!!  Aren't you dying to know who else in the world ever wanted a pale turquoise fur capelet?!

And those gloves are absolutely beautiful.

(BTW, did we ever get a closeup shot of DD's chemise? It looks like it's made of some really pretty textured semi-sheer fabric. Or am I making that up?)

  I'm loving the black lace edging on the chemise.  I was hesitant to try that, but it gives a blackwork-ish look to the cuff edges I just love!
