I’m a full time mom to 3 awesome little boys (7 & 5 year old twins). I’m obsessed with anything and everything vintage. I spend a lot of time hunting, washing, mending, and loving each item I find. I wish I could keep them all but then I’d be a hoarder! Which is one of the reasons I sell on Poshmark, and I love to share my treasures with others. *Smoke free/lizard friendly home *All items washed (unless it may be damaged) and hung to dry *I use all reused packing materials when possible

k8tron @the1rustyzipper I love that your description includes the phrase "lizard-friendly!" My house also includes an array of unusual pets from tadpoles to chickens with a bunny thrown in and goats on the wish list! It's great to meet a fellow vintage lovin' momma! - ❤ Kate

thevelvetbeetle @k8tron I want chickens and goats!! Unfortunately, it’s so damn expensive to live in Santa Cruz, so we don’t have the space. Hoping to move out of state to the country!!!

k8tron @the1rustyzipper Gurl, have you considered Oregon?!?! Corvallis is soooooo dreamy and perfect. We moved from Portland (hubby is from Ukiah), and we LOVE it. It's close to the coolest/weirdest 70s theme park, Enchanted Forest, the thrifting is amazeballs, the cost of living is totally reasonable, no sales tax, mountains and ocean nearby...and it's still on the west coast!

thevelvetbeetle @k8tron we have thought about it, I thought the cost was going up- everyone from CA is going there! I’m liberal, but CA is waaaaaay too liberal!! Maybe we’ll revisit OR!

heidihandpicked Thanks for following me. 😄 I’m pretty new to Poshmark. I started listing items in March 2020 and have learned quite a bit in the past few months. Profits from my sales are sent to The Central Plateau of Haiti for education, food and medical supplies. I ❤️ your vintage closet. I’m a 61 year young grandma.

kriswak Hi! Jen ... you just bought my Billy the Kid pants ... and since they don't have an official size tag I wanted to give you measurements to be sure they will work for you - the waist is 12 inches - laid flat and from crotch to waist in 9 inches ... again they have huge hems so the length is a non issue. Let me know if you still want me to send. Thanks! Kris

kastironwoman Hi Jen. We used to Live in San Jose- so I understand your pain! I love that you rescue vintage & sell it washed & fixed. But can I suggest you use all of your title instead of a minimal title? Add fabric type, pattern or dress style. -100% double Knit Polyester or Poly. 100% Cotton. Vertical stripes. Miniature floral, striped floral, etc. Gathered skirt, Empire dress, A-Line skirt, etc. Add size. Use up the space the best you can. It will help buyers. Julie Q

I have a pair of them that are stripes like a railroad engineer. 100% cotton Size 7 very high waist (I think around 13”) they have front and back yoke detail.
