Fabulous Vintage Accessories at The Rusty Propeller

There's a new antiques store in town!  The Rusty Propeller is a quaint and charming shop on the historic town square of Rossville, Tennessee at 60 Front Street.  They specialize in unique antiques including vintage toys, automobilia, Americana, war items and much more.  But since the focus of this blog is FASHION, I set out to see what vintage accessories I could find .  Here are a few of  my favorites:

Vintage Beaded Handbag

Vintage Dress Gloves

Vintage Hats

Vintage Brooch

Vintage Evening Bag

Vintage Necklaces and Rings

Vintage Hair Dryers...OK so they are not accessories...but they are way cool!

There is so much more to see, so if you live in the area, drop by or you can check them out at http://therustypropeller.com/
