Facebook wins again

Ok, so I usually try to ignore all of the little ads on the sidebar of Facebook whenever I log on, as I feel they are either A) begging to steal my credit card number or B) promoting that week's "hit" show featuring 4-6 teenagers well above the poverty line and well below the high school reading equivalency.  But there has been one that has caught my eye over and over because of their sly advertising of putting cute little dresses up that need a good home and someone to love and fawn over them.  What I am wondering is, before I spend my next month's rent on a few of these little beauties, are they of any quality?  Am I going to take them out of the package and have them disintegrate in my hands?  The website is Mod Retro, and they specialize in Indie and Vintage clothing.  If you have ever owned anything from this place, I would love to know about your experience. 

And just in case you were curious, here are some samples.  Look and them and TRY not to fall in love.  It's like trying not to tear up during a Sarah Mclachlan ASPCA ad. 

The Japanese Cherry Blossom dress is my fave... It reminds me of the famous picture of Edna St. Vincent Millay.

  1. You clearly get much better ads on FB than I do. Since I got married, most of what FB tries to advertise to me has to do with diapers and fertility treatments. It's really annoying, and I keep clicking offensive/irrelevant (no kids on the horizon), but they just keep coming back.
