SPOT CHECK

I don't know about you, but weather has a lot of influence on my mood.  These days, I feel the sun shining on my face and the breeze doesn't make me want to run for shelter.  Trees have that chartreuse hue and the tulips are in their full glory.  When I'm feeling this alive, my wardrobe starts to shift from sombre black to colours and patterns.  What better way to celebrate spring than with polka-dots...

SILENT AUCTION - 1970s Blue Halter Dress and Jacket

I've found a great auction website that will host my little silent auctions all in the name of charity! In case some of you don't know, 10% of all my sales (website, ebay, etsy) are donated to local women's shelters here in Toronto. So 10% of the results of these auctions will also be donated to charity.

Using 32auctions.com, I will list the item up for bidding on this blog and provide everyone with the link and password needed to view the auction and/or participate. Participants can view the auction anonymously, or if they have a 32auctions account, they can join the auction. In order to bid you need an account, but it's FREE! I will still accept private bids if left as comments here on the blog or sent to bids@somelikeitvintage.com

This I hope will help keep this auction straightforward, honest, clear and easy to access. It is more intimate than the ebay behemoth!  Detailed photos below.

Auction ID: 1970s
