Before I went to America I put myself on a big buying restriction. I’m infamous amongst my friends for buying new clothes, so for me that was a big thing to buy no new dresses for 3 months. I buy so much of my clothing from American repro companies, though, that it made sense to take advantage of being in-country for my shopping while i was there, so I saved and made multiple lists about what I wanted. Here, my little darlings, is my haul.

Bernie Dexter Paris dress in Chrysanthemum print

Collectif Trixie dress in Teal from Unique Vintage

Nancy dress in Blue Lemonade print from Pinup Girl Clothing

Sunrise To Sunset Paris Dress from Doll Me Up Darling

Jenny Skirt in Red Sharkskin Taffeta from Pinup Girl Clothing

Miss L-Fire Just Be Cosmopolitan Heels from Modcloth

Diva Jacket & Skirt in Navy from Heart of Haute

Red Delores dress from Unique Vintage

Dorathy dress by Stop Staring!

Cropped Cardigans in Royal Blue (Pinup Girl Clothing,) Kelly Green (Doll Me Up,) Burgundy (Unique Vintage)

It wasn’t just clothes. I’m a bit makeup obsessed too. There’s plenty of brands that are only sold in the US or have exponentially expensive international shipping, or else are just way cheaper over there than here in the UK, so I wanted to stock up on those hard-to-find items while away.

I’ve already reviewed the Stop Staring! Dorathy dress, and the Kelly Green Tootsie Cropped Cardigan and the Sunrise to Sunset Paris dress in a joint review, as well as this Diva suit in black in the past. A review of the Trixie dress and the Delores dress are coming soon, but if there’s anything else in this post you’re curious about please feel free to request a review in the comments below.
