Sugar Sacks were commonly repurposed during the Great Depression and WWII. In rural communities, they became an iconic fashion as women turned them into garments, such as aprons, dresses, etc. How resourceful?
Our turn to make sugar out of the sack—
Jackets, pants, shorts, skirts, and all leftover material used as lettering for those statement pieces — not a single sliver will go without a second life, giving you the sweet looks that stand the test of time!
Now that helps the medicine go down.

Greeetings from your fav seaside vintage shop in Maine. Is it warming up or is that just the heat coming off our show floor? Either way, come in and get drippy in vintage flippyy. Store is packed and we are open today and probably most Fri/Sats this winter unless there are some waves of any size any stature..in which case, see you in the longing lineup. 🙏🏼
