I love these little one piece outfits, they are so comfy for little ones.  I used to dress my girls in them all the time.

Little puppy, little bear, little whale


two pink and one peach


Red rose, biker chic, puppy love

I know the corduroys don't count as a one piece, but they are Health-Tex and super cute.

Vintage Health-Tex

Health-Tex clothing is one of my favorite vintage brands.  They are easy to spot when thrifting, I just look for bright stripes, one pieces, jumpers, and printed corduroy.  I especially love it when I find cute boy's pieces, like striped shirts and cute onesies.

Check out some of these cute ads that I found online


Connect the dots, awesome






Great illustrations!

I have several Health-Tex items in the shop.  I'm always so happy when someone buys one because I know they are going to love it.

Things have been kind of slow over at the shop, so I decided to create a Facebook page to promote it more.  Why didn't I do that before?  I'm doing a special give away when I reach 100 "likes", something from the shop or perhaps a special little something from my personal collection.  In the mean time, I was just looking around the shop and noticed that these goodies were still hanging around, they are too cute to be gathering dust, use the code "summer" and get 25% off your order.


What in the world is this still doing hanging in the shop?
This cutie is only $15, use the code "summer" and it's only $11.25





$11
Ah come on now, those need to be worn. 

So remember to "like" my Facebook page for a chance to win some cute goodies!

yard sales!  I'm in the mood for some, but so far not so much luck.  BUT, I am lucky enough to have girls who love a good sale too, as well as sleeping in.  I can be gone and back before they even notice, got to love teenagers.  
I did get a chance to take some photos of of some cuties that I've had since last summer.  I especially love this little giraffe jumper.

The 50's jumper is soft and perfect for hot summer days.  Sweet little pinafore dress that could be layered for fall.  The little smocked top comes with a attached vest.



I love it when I find vintage boy where.  I have two girls, so I never really looked for boy stuff, but now I have my eye out for vintage boy goodies.  I love the Health Tex tractor onesie, especially the rainbow sleeves.  

I'm devoting an entire day to updating my shop, what day is that? MONDAY!  So look for these goodies then.
