the birds and the bees


When this ad image (originally posted in alsis35's Flickr stream) popped up on my Tumblr dashboard last week it immediately rang a bell with me.  I had seen this blouse--held it in my hands, in fact.  It was part of a huge vintage buy we made two summers ago.  At the time, I had no idea it was an Edith Head design.  Nor that it was purchased in 1956 for a mere $3.00 plus two Dial Soap wrappers!  (I love all the ways the ad suggests the blouse can be worn.)

Here are a couple of my photos of the blouse, which I sold on Etsy exactly two years ago yesterday!



An amazing print, I'm sure you'll agree!
