This image is from a 1908 magazine advertisement for corsets. I'm so very glad fashion is more comfortable these days.

Free vintage image - dancers
I love this image of a couple dancing from the 1920's. Isn't the trailing scarf detail on that dress pretty fabulous? Of course it would be in the dip or my soup if I tried to wear a style like that.

Featured fabulous - Carouselink
I stumbled across Carousel ink today while perusing Etsy and I was enchanted. It's got a burlesque Halloween vibe going on and those are some of my favorite things. Here are a few items that caught my eye.
Toaster - free vintage image
Today's free image from my collection is an illustration of a vintage toaster. In fact, I used to have a toaster like this. Instead of the bread popping up from the slots, the sides of this toaster folded down and you flipped the bread manually to toast each side. Ah, the good old days.
