A Summertime Swirl


This past weekend, I helped a friend hold an estate sale since she will be moving out of state in a few weeks and needed to clear out almost all of her furniture. It was a lot of hard work, but we managed to still have some great fun while we were at it. For a while now, I have been toying with the idea of opening up my own estate sale company and this past weekend gave me a real taste for what it would be like. I'm still not sure if it's something I want to jump into, but it was nice to at least have a "trial run."

I wore this dress on the first day of the sale. I wanted something with pockets, so I could have all things on my person if need be. This dress was on eBay a total of one hour before I decided to just do the buy it now. I really loved the color and knew it just had to come to my home. It's a Swirl! I am seriously addicted!! In the words of Kesha, Swirls are my drug! lol!

Hope you all had lovely weekends!!

Hehe how many Swirls do you have now?? I just bought one at an estate sale this past Friday-- it was in perfect condition but after only wearing it a day it already got a little tear in each shoulder. :( So sad, that's the hazard of wearing vintage I suppose though my mom should be able to fix it up.

I just got my first Swirl on ebay a few weeks ago and I love it! Mine still had the tags and everything! *yay* I have a problem finding any that aren't about $100! To me, that's too much to spend on a cotton day dress!

This is honestly one of the most beautiful Swirls I've ever seen. Such a beautiful colour and who can resist gingham???
