Want: RED Valentino Cherry-appliqué ballet flats



Cherry season is still a while ahead, but I got a craving for these RED Valentino Cherry-appliqué patent ballet flats. Yes, they could feel just as right in little' niece's wardrobe (note to self: search for something similar for a 5 year old), but they're adorable and will look nice with many of my spring and summer dresses ($295 on net-a-porter).


Speaking of cherries:


I'm always eyeing 1940s bakelite cherry necklaces. This one is offered on Etsy for $800+, so I'm kicking myself for passing on an opportunity to buy a full for less than $200 a few years ago.

  4. Love the new look! And I love that necklace as well. Bakelite makes me happy. Buying it online can be so expensive though- I see better prices at specialty shows and antique expos in convention centers. And I don't know if it's just my area here, but lately I've noticed prices all over the place. A month or so ago I spotted a brooch I liked at three different dealers within the same show. The price for the piece ranged from $260 all the way up to $785! It would be interesting to see where each of those dealers are based, and I really should have picked up their business cards. That's something for me to keep in mind for the future I suppose. I'll be wishing a stellar deal your way for a lovely red necklace. Keep looking because you might yet find one! :)

    But if you find two, you'll need to save one for me because I don't have one yet either! hahaha
