This series is for all the Retro lovers out there. I stumble upon Retro Treasures daily and thought I'd share some of them here. A diverse range of retro items for the Old Soul.

Vintage Poodle Blouse & Short Set

Love the poodle applique on the blouse of this short set. It is plaid with a tie front and matching shorts. Made in the 1960s.

Nat Cole Vinyl Record

The smooth sound of Nat Cole featured on this vintage vinyl LP Nothing beats the sound of a needle on a record.

Art Deco Chandelier

An absolute exquisite piece of art from the 1920s, 1930s. This Art Deco Chandelier with nouveau influences has frosted green glass and ornate accents.

50s Swimwear by Jantzen

This swimsuit reminds me of Esther Williams. A icon of the 40s and 50s known for her amazing choreographed synchronized swimming routines in old Hollywood movie classics. What a beauty, love the ruching on this retro bathing suit.

Vintage Roller Skates

This is a serious flashback to my youth with these Retro Roller Skates from the 70s , 80s. As was the fad, these skates were made from a popular sneaker at the time, the Nike jogger. Collectible to both roller skaters and Nike shoe enthusiasts alike. I can almost hear the disco music playing and see the mirror ball spinning.

Besame Cosmetics

Besame features makeup inspired by the past and honors the traditions of vintage cosmetic companies. They offer a range of products. Compacts, cream mascara, make up tools, fragrances and my favorite, classic shades of red lipstick in hard to find warm undertones. The ingredients and packaging are high quality. A great company for modern reproductions of classic luxury makeup from the 1920s, ‘30s, ‘40s, and ‘50s.

Retro Red 1940s Style Wedge Shoes

These cute Retro Shoes are reminiscent of the 1940s style. They come in red, yellow, blue and black. They look really comfortable with a rubber wedge and keyhole cutouts. They are made by Fly London, a shoe company that mixes traditional techniques with classic fashion styles in an unexpected way.

50s Style Coat Dress

This 50s Dress has a classic double breasted button look, with a notch collar and short sleeves. The dress bottom is a full circle skirt style with pockets. I love the flap styled pockets, very retro looking. The material is a poplin weave of cotton spandex. It comes in two colors, this beige tan color and a army green color. The company is eShakti. A favorite of mine. This company offers custom made dresses to your measurements. You just tell them the fabric and details you want and they can design it for you. Amazing huh? We feature quite a few of their 50s style dresses here at Old Soul Retro. They consistently get good reviews for their customer service and quality.
