I've been on a month long journey attempting to organize my closet aka the extra bedroom my boyfriend has to give up in order to store my hoards of clothing. I decided a few years ago that I would start to catalog my vintage clothing/ decor for insurance purposes and the best way to do that, without losing interest, was to revive my Instagram account @hot_tramp_vintage . I wanted to stick to my plan, but also do something fun that would keep my interest. Flash forward to present time and I've turned into a full-fledged, vintage narcissist.... sort of.
One of the things I love about posting my stuff on Instagram is that, as corny as it sounds, connects me to others who have the same interests. Growing up, it was hard to find kids my age who would even go near an antique store let alone be near anything they deemed "too old". Here are some of the clothing pieces I've recently posted :)

I found this hooded cape at one of my favorite small town antique shops and I fell in LOVE! The lining is a glittering, Gun Metal colored lame fabric. I believe that this piece is from the mid to late 1940's, but without a tag I cannot be sure :)

| My obsession with vintage lingerie will never cease and this combo is TO DIE FOR! I paired my favorite 1960's Black Lace, Frederick's of Hollywood Teddy with this late 1950's Hollywood Vassarette Demi Bra. Can I wear this around all the time please? ;) |

| I used to be an avid hat collector, but as of late, my interests have fallen elsewhere. This mid-50's Red Straw Hat with Jewel Appliques has always been one of my favorites and I had to pair it with this Bernie Dexter, Red Lurex Bustier :) |
