Pepsi-Cola 1970's Vintage Beach Towel

Pepsi-Cola 1970's Vintage Beach Towel,
White

Product Features
  • 100% Cotton
  • Measures 30" x 60"
  • Pepsi spirit can design on front
  • Machine wash cold. Tumble dry.
  • Imported
Product Description
From the Manufacturer
100% cotton, 30" x 60" fiber reactive printed beach towel with Pepsi spirit can design on a white background

These Pepsi towels are thin; although they wash up very nice and soft without any fabric softener. The design is brilliant and there is absolutely no color fade whatsoever. I have been using them on a regular basis and despite how thin they are - they go through drying 5 children without being wringing wet! my kids decided to use one to clean up chocolate milk and the stain came right out of it (which is a definite plus!) My biggest complaint is they are a little smaller than I imagined 30 x 60 would be.

For 50 Pepsi points though - they are really a great towel!

Woven Corduroy Women's Blazer w/ Fitted Shape

Woven Corduroy Women's Blazer w/ Fitted Shape

Product Description

Pull your whole outfit together with a chic medium weight fine wale cord blazer. This one is fitted to hug your curves and features a back vent, faux 5-button closure at the cuff, a notched lapel and two flap close front pockets. It also has a double-button front closure to flatter every body type. Machine wash and dry. 100% cotton. Fully lined. Lining: 100% polyester. Size S = 2/4. Size M = 6/8. Size L = 8/10. Size XL = 10/12.

I'm very very happy with this jacket. The price is fantastic and the fit is great. This jacket looks like it was made just for me.
I'm 5'7", 150lbs, athletic built (wide shoulders). I usually wear size M (8 or 10). I ordered size L in black (I used my measurements and the size chart to determine that). It turned out to be a perfect fit, sleeves were long enough and the waist was right where it should be (which was very hard for to find before). It is also visually slimming because of the color and the cut.

If you are tired of the boxy look, this blazer is for you. Truly fitted to a woman's shape: roomy at the chest, tapered in at the waist, with a light flare at the bottom to fit over her hips. Nice fabric - a small wale corduroy. The sizes are a bit small - I normally wear a 4 or 6 in dresses, so I ordered this blazer in a 6. I need to exchange it for an 8 because it is TOO fitted. :)

Pepsi-Cola Women's 1970's Vintage Pepsi Challenge T-Shirt

Pepsi-Cola Women's 1970's Vintage Pepsi Challenge T-Shirt

Product Features
  • Made of 100% cotton
  • Short sleeve crew neck tee
  • Slim fit; Small fits bust size 33-34; Medium 35-36; Large 37-38; X-Large 39-40
  • Machine wash warm. Tumble dry low.
  • Made in the USA
Product Description

100% cotton navy blue short sleeve crew neck tee with screen print of Pepsi's 1965 logo on front and a slim fit through the waist in a soft, vintage cotton.

My only complaint with this item is that it runs really small (i think all the pepsi stuff runs small). I ornally wear an xl, so I ordered the xxl to be on the safe side. It is tiny! I suppose that if you are not top heavy it will fit. But being that I am not, I feel rather squished in this top. You would probably have to wear a large to fit into this.
Other than the size issues, the top is very nice. Made of very thin/light material, as is typical with these type of babydoll tshirts. It is long and fitted in the waist area. I would get this shirt if you are a size large or smaller. For the bigger girls, you should pass on it.

A shimmery, strappy sandal that will be perfect with your favorite dresses.

This shoe is very sexy and still comfortable. I find that it is very true to size. I never wear ivory or white shoes because I don't think they're cute on me, but I needed some for a wedding. This one is definitely an exception. I'm about to get a bronze pair because they're so hot and it's a great price.

I have owned these shoes in black for several years. They are my go-to shoe when I'm required to dress up. They look great with a dress or jeans. I too had some problems with the back strap not staying put, but after placing a toe pad in the front, I have never had a problem since. I've worn these shoes many nights out dancing and running all over town. Unfortunately they have begun to rip at the buckle, and I've been putting off purchasing another pair.
