It's official I have petticoat envy. I haven't found one yet!! That pink necklace is a gorgeous statment piece. I personally liked the blingy ding ding pic the best!

I have been looking for a petticoat forever! Gorgeous finds.
Good for Margaret!
That first frock is gorgeous - is it too small, Nelly?
Love all your bling and that super pretty petticoat and the lovely handbag.

Hi Nelly, I'm so behind. I LOVE the record bag, how great! I would love the petticoat too, its gor-ge-ous!
Bling-tastic! Great vintage clothes find too, but my fave has to be the bag - oh what a beauty! Bless Margaret :o) Scarlett x
I love the first dress Nelly, chuck on a pair of wedges and you'd have a perfect outfit for a Summer barbie x
Ha! I'd totally wear all those necklaces together, too.
I love that first dress so much, I hope it fits you because I'd love to see it on you.
Yellow looks so good on you! If it were me I'd wear it open over that fabulous green Peer Gynt maxi along with a whole heap of bling.
Id love to come and play dress up in your collection, one day I hope I will! xxx
That first dress is gorgeous, Nelly, please make it fit you cos you'd look fab in it!
And all the bling is great too.
I think we should all give ourselves a book as a pressie and write in it, just like Margaret! xxxxxx
Oh that first dress is gorgeous, like a little gypsy dress! Make it fit!! Love the bling, instant glamour!!!! Glad to hear the bag is holding out well, I'll let you know when I can go through my stuff! Xoxox
Love the first dress. I felt really sad for Margaret but at least she has a sense of humour! M x
Well you have been busy my dear. Great finds as usual.

Look at all your treasure. I love the pink petticoat and the agate necklace.
Wow, you sure did score big time! Love the bling and those dresses are awesome.

HELLO HELLO HELLO HELLO HELLO HELLO
That yellow top is so sweet and looks very nice on you. (I love the flowers on the collar.)
That petticoat is a delicious pink *mm* *mmm* *mmmm* I love petticoats and wish I had more. I have a red one that I was going to try to work into my FoF post (we will see) Then I have a 40's or 50's white one but I don't know how to explain it. It is just a one layer one not really puffy or anything.
* The vintage bag is very nice
* I think the note to Margaret from Margaret was funny. It's something I would totally do.
* Wonderful jewellery I like it all but if I had to chose a necklace I would probably say (bling 4)
Oh that inscription is brilliant - like you I'm not sure whether its funny or sad. Great bling finds too and agree with Vix you really suit yellow.
petticoat is one in a million!
