Amazing designer Yokoo has knitted a one-of-a-kind necklace for Clothing With a Cause in a special multicolored brown, blue, orange, green and pink!

This necklace is so unique I couldn't find a proper category for it here on eBay! It's the softest wool and the colors are much deeper in real life than in the picture, where they look a little washed out. The colors compliment each other perfectly and can add a softness to any outfit, in summer, spring, fall or winter.

It is unavailable on her site and made specially for this eBay store. All profits go towards helping the victims of the genocide in Darfur. To read more and see more pictures of this item, visit clothingwithacause.blogspot.com.

This item does not have tags but has never been worn.
It measures approx 60 cm.

Remember, all profits go towards the victims of the genocide in Darfur. Neither Yokoo nor I are getting a profit from this.

Amazing designer Yokoo has knitted one of her Elizabeth Hair Pom Poms for Clothing With a Cause in a special brown!

It was made specially for this eBay store. All profits go towards helping the victims of the genocide in Darfur. To read more, visit clothingwithacause.blogspot.com.

I have only worn this exact item once myself, for a photoshoot for a major fashion publication. Come August you will see the exact pom pom you own in print!

This Pom Pom is approximately 50 cm and could be worn in the summer, spring, fall or winter! The color is a beautiful shade of brown and the accessory is hand-knitted with the softest wool. There is a beautiful gray button on the back for good fastening!

From Yokoo's site:
"A pom-pon is, at its most basic level, a decorative ball of fluff. Pom-pons may come in many colors, sizes and varieties and are made from a wide array of materials, including fabric, paper, plastic, or occasionally feathers. While not necessarily the most common usage of a pom-pon, the most noticeable and widely-recognized use is generally in Cheerleading and often by fans during other spectator sports.
Pom-pon is originally a term derived from the French word "pompon" and sometimes hyphenated (though possibly erroneously) in imitation of the echoic word "pom-pom". "Pompon" refers to ornamental spheres of fabric, feathers, etc., and, by extension, to a kind of chrysanthemum characterized by small, spherical flowers. This term is often spelled "pom-pon", "pom-pom", or "pompom". It can also refer to a pomeranian dog."

The idea is incredibly creative and almost no one else will have one!

black white floral VINTAGE Charlee Allison womens dress

2009-04-14T15:33:00.000-07:00

This beautiful Charlee Allison for Eljay dress is vintage from the 1980's and in EXCELLENT condition. The black and white floral pattern and lightweight fabric is perfect for this summer! The pattern and size also makes the dress fun to layer.

100% polyester. The shape of the dress is especially great: A normal dress but with flaps on the front and back that come in and tie together on the side in front! A very classic 80's silhouette, especially with two shoulderpads that add a statement without being over-the-top.
Lastly-three adorable pearl-like beads add a nice and elegant touch to the left shoulder.
SIZING
This dress is a US size 7/8. Measurements are as follows:
Shoulder to shoulder: 15.5 in / 39.5 cm
Length (top to bottom): 40 in / 101.5 cm
Hips: approx. 17 in / 43 cm
Waist: 11 in / 28 cm *PLEASE NOTE* what I measured is an elastic band at the waist, with the dress lying flat, so obviously your waist can be much bigger and it will still fit. With the elastic band stretched as far as it will go, the measurements are 18 in / 46 cm. Since there IS an elastic band, if the hips don't completely fit, you can pull up the elastic part higher up on your stomach if it helps (it will still be covered by the flaps of fabric you tie together)

Lord and Taylor brown fancy VINTAGE 1930s-1940s hat

2009-04-14T15:17:00.000-07:00

This hat is AMAZING.
It's the perfect shade of chocolate brown and has the coolest detail: A lighter brown slide-like band that curves over the side!
It is from the 30s-40s era, very old but in fantastic shape. This hat was built to last for a long time. It is from Lord & Taylor originally and the crown on the inside says "Corona." There is also a pick to help keep it put.
The great thing about this hat is that it's very elegant and classy but still has a completely unique feature that you definitely won't see many other people wearing.

SIZING
Hat size 22 1/2
Diameter- 7.5 in / 19 cm

Your head might not be precisely 7.5 inches wide but it's a hat. If it doesn't fit tight around your head like a beanie might, there is still the pick that will keep it put if it's resting on top of your head.

It's not easy to find such an amazing accessory!

2009-04-12T17:24:00.000-07:00

This plaid vest is in great condition! Though it doesn't look totally brand new, there are no blemishes and it is built to last a long time.

The possibilities are endless!

Navy lining and two engraved bronze buttons. Looks itchy but is super soft.

If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask!

black unisex 70's punk blazer

2009-04-12T15:28:00.000-07:00

Blemish 1:

Blemish 2 (not pictured on ebay page):

This blazer was purchased by a friend of the family's in London in the 1970's punk era. She outgrew it and handed it over to me, and I haven't worn it once. I don't know how often she wore it but it sure is in fantastic shape!

You can wear it with plaid tights and a schoolgirl skirt, with a simple dress, or just a tshirt and jeans! A guy or a girl could rock this blazer. Since it's black, it is very versatile, but still special and unique in the amazing details:

Plum colored lining
A single button, silver. The engraving is that of a school crest.
A pocket on the left-hand chest
The point it comes to at the bottom (in front and back)
The strong shoulders
You can roll the sleeves up or leave them down; they are rolled up in the picture
It is more black in real life, the gray-ness is due to the sun

There are two minor blemishes, one is pictured here and the other at http://clothingwithacause.blogspot.com. The other doesn't look much different. One is located around the right-hand rib cage and the other around the upper left-hand back. Both are very small and hardly noticeable.

Measurements
Width (waist): 18 in / 46 cm
Height (top of the back of the collar to tip of the bottom seam): 24 in / 61 cm
Breast: 17 in / 43.5 cm
Shoulder to shoulder: 19 in / 48 cm
Outer lining of sleeve: 25 in / 63.5 cm
