Wordpress Vintage Shop

Wow, what a day. Trying to teach myself how to create a website using wordpress and zencart. Totally turned around. Hopefully tomorrow things will start to make sense. I'm hoping to get this project done by the end of next week. I might be a little too optimistic. Any ways, heres another great find currently listed on my etsy site.

Vintage Wedding Dress

1950s Empire Waist Wedding Dress or Gown in Antique White and Lace, with a Slip and Beautiful Headpiece


I love this dress. I wish it fit me. :( I was hoping I could alter it to fit the gals, but it just won't work and it is too beautiful to cut. I love the empire waist and all the lace detail. 

I do have it listed on etsy. Go here for more details. http://www.etsy.com/listing/30352486/1950s-empire-waist-wedding-dress-or-gown
