I'm (Lynn here) addicted to St John Knits, but am I the last one in the world to discover that ST JOHN KNITS makes SHOES?!!!! And this Nawlins Darlin' LOVED her shoes! Here you'll see boxes upon boxes of NEVER WORN ST JOHN, STUART WEITZMAN, CHARLES JOURDAN and other high end Cobblers.
To my I LOVE THE 80'S folks! Here's a love letter to an era that was all about A-ha, WHAM!, Whitney, Bowie, Cyndi & Madonna! C'mon Material Girls and Boys! Get your winter/holiday vintage pieces here! PS. The WESTERN SHIRTS! Saddle up and get here early! AND there's 80'S EARRINGS AND NECKLACES in abundance! UGLY CHRISTMAS PARTY SWEATERS?

SHANGRI-LA:
The Rumpus room in the lower level of this home is a vintage enthusiast dream come true! Wind down the stairs and enter into the vintage kingdom of fun!
