details… some of my vintage slip collection. the pink is a favourite. and for Prêt à Porter P those are my vintage boots that I bought with Marcel of Belle De Jour in mind. a pair of SWANclothing sock garters in White Lace. and I still love, and am sort of proud of the longevity of my SWANclothing Moonshine Twins tote and from SWANclothing in 2007 my Big Bunny Bruiser Tote.

it’s probably a trick but over here it feels like winter is almost gone. I want to get in a last couple of winter posts. today, more lovely photos from Piret and her ethereal blog A Mouse Upon the Sands. Piret is sort of a regular here, i can not resist her photos of Estonia. and of course her carrying her SWANclothing Louche tote around kind of melts my heart.

all these photos are from blog entry tales of darkness and light.

next, i finally have some pics of my lovely Whitby Cowl from Tara-Lynn of yarnovermovement. i love my cowl Tara-Lynn!

and thanks for putting up with the week long store closure. i’m pretty much working around the clock sewing orders and working on spring items. my blog and store and all those other online things are like my heartbeat to me. so i hate closing my store and look forward to opening with fresh items ASAP!

i’m closing the SWANclothing for a week starting this Monday… in preparation for spring and to make sure all your present orders will get out in time. it’s been an exciting time lately. and a challenge to keep up with the orders. i have some simple, hopefully beautiful ideas for spring. and have collected some fabrics i am also very excited about. it’s been quite a mission, through blowing snow often. though i do love the snow, here’s to spring!

{I’ve just moved this entry up so it stays on the front page. Here’s the original “intro to SWANclothing sock garters…“ And La Meow, Jaana of The door in my wardrobe, and Sabocracy wearing theirs perfectly. More colours here, including Latté. And some mentions.}

Hello pretty leg candy… Are your brogues lonely? Your futuristic wedgie platforms and stilettos need a friend or two? SWANclothing sock garters save the day! Not just for socks. Not just for girls.

Made from thrifted recycled leather and stretchy elastic. Anchored flatteringly with leather at the front & back. Topped off with a silver metal swan bead. And a clip for your socks in front. Keep those socks up!

The SWANclothing sock garters come in black, white, satin cream, white lace, latté, baby blue, and ballerina pink. And are available in all sizes, please include your calf measurement when you place your order. If you want a thigh high version, just include your thigh measurement instead.

Find them in my SWANclothing store.
