Regular readers know how much Mod Betty loves vintage clothing- especially dresses, and finding out some of the history of them from her Vintage Clothing Resource “Fuzzie Lizzie” the Vintage Traveler.
So it was quite a surprise when both of us were stumped by a couple of cute frocks from my collection – with the Kelly Arden label:
It was only when I did some additional internet sleuthing that I uncovered a connection between Kelly Arden and Bobbie Brooks, who Lizzie had just written about, so I passed on the info and voila she put it all into perspective.
Will I ever get used to posing for the camera? Prolly not!
Read all about my dress connection here on Lizzie’s blog – I love it when a mystery gets solved, I feel like Nancy Drew! I also love adding information like this to the internet, as there may be someone out there who is also curious about their Kelly Arden dress!

We are the Nancy Drews of vintage!
That dress is awesome on you!
And I love your Mod Betty poses!!!
