If I could, Id Buy from Debbie

Debbie Reynolds that is have you seen the costumes she is auctioning off?
You must go have a gander But be ready with the tissues as you will be drooling just like me.Here is one site with some info.
Then come HERE If you were lucky enough to win the lotto last night and can go on a spending spree.

I dont know what my favourite is but Id have to have it all BUT I loved Hello Dolly and My Fair Lady as a kid and watched them both many times.
Sooo Maybe this
 Or a dolly outfit
 Or 2? (must go get this movie asap)


 And I love this it  Looks like a Desiree Dress to me There is even a Desiree bed up for auction!!
 And I have never been able to resist anyting Medieval
 Then Id have to buy some of the male Costumes Like RexHarrisons Dr Dolittle outfit. and Charlie Chaplins bowler and and and . But then I think Id just take one of everything thanks.

Now  seeing as I cant have any Id settle for the catalogue but even they are sold out!!
So what do I do ? I Download the 316 pages of it ha Now all I have to do is go get me lots of ink and a heap of paper and I have my own catalogue of loveliness.Not quite the same as the real thing,fingers crossed I find an original eventually!

Now that you have wiped your chin,what would you like to own?

*wipes drool from chin* Oh, my @%&*! Those gowns all belonged to Debbie Reynolds?! Who knows what other Olde Hollywood gems are in hiding...boggles the mind. Thank you so much for sharing these, Nelly! I am so far out of the loop, I need your blog to help me catch up!:D

I was lusting after this collection when Margaret at Penny Dreadful blogged about it last week, I wanted the Cleopatra dress and all of Babs Streisand's outfits as I love her so.
Totally mad and wildly impractical like the majority of my wardrobe. xxx
