Vintage Finds of the Week: Beaded Cardigans

I have always loved vintage beaded cardigans from the 50's. I have a few in my personal collection that I wear both casually with jeans or as an insulating layer over a party dress. The bead work often has a wintery holiday sparkly feel to them which makes them even more appealing this time of year. Here are a few I've discovered on Etsy for this week's vintage finds:

Ice Blue Sparkle Cardigan 1950s Lambswool Sweater Hand Beaded Sequins-$40-Joules

I hosted a vintage shopping tea party this past weekend in a beautiful parlour of a Brooklyn Brownstone. Thank you to everyone who came and to all of my friends for their support. It was a lot of fun and some great vintage items found new homes!
