Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Polka Dot... Micheal Kors



French designer Coco Chanel favored dots in the 1920s and such 1950s glamor queens as Marilyn Monroe flaunted the print while house-wives across America donned delicate, evenly spaced dots in "Leave It to Beaver" bliss. In the '60s, "Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini" became a pop-song dot anthem;


Remember that classic song? These Michael Kors Polka Dot Espadrilles will make you sing it all day long but you wont be hiding or "turning blue" wearing these show stoppers.


These retro Micheal Kors espadrilles have style. They are new, unused and hard to find in this size and color combo.

99 Sony's but a Handycam ain't one!


If you shot video through the 1990s there is a good chance you have tapes in the 8mm video format. 
Unfortunately, as new digital technologies became available in the 2000s, many consumers upgraded their 8mm Camcorders.  8mm camcorders and 8mm players have become scarce, leaving many people with memories stuck on their 8mm videotapes they can no longer watch.

How to fix this, two options:

Buy a Vintage Sony while you can and easily transfer your memories to DVD.  

or Hire a Service that will do this for you at a high premium.
