Catwalk for Charity

Our favorite goalie, Ryan Miller, has announced this year's Catwalk for Charity event. It will take place on November 8, 2009 at the Town Ballroom. This year the theme is the "Fabulous Fifties"! Every year Ryan and the Steadfast Foundation choose a vintage era to focus on. Last year it was the 1920's. Heffy's Collections loves the vintage themes since it's right down our alley.

The Steadfast Foundation was established by Ryan to help provide for the psychosocial needs for families dealing with cancer, particularly in children. We feel this is an especially worthwhile event. It also gives us an opportunity to show off some of our '50's clothes-and we hope they may make it to the event!
First two little black dresses perfect for any occasion:
black sweater dress from Janzten
a dress by Pavelle

Or an entirely different look in a classic shirtwaist:
beautiful floral dress

yummy strawberry shirtwaist

Separates work well too, like these pin-up sweaters.
mock turtleneck

cashmere soft

And two random pieces to round out the fifties:
Amana cardigan
gorgeous sheer rose skirt

We hope to add more soon. If you would like more information on the fifties, check out Heffy's earlier blog, Fifties Fashions.

We're Two!


It should say TO Heffy's Collections! We reached our 2 year mark on July 25th. We have undergone a lot of changes since our inception and a few recently (somewhat related to the lateness of this blog).
Heffy's Collections continues to operate our website at heffyscollections.com and we have added Specialist Auctions and our newest endeavor is on Bonanzle. We continue to add new (usually vintage) items. Here is a collage of some of our latest:























Becky is working 3 jobs now, the latest is training horses and riders at Butch Bokman's. She loves it and we are hoping to find a new place with enough room for horses and a vegetable garden. Preparing to move has kept me away from this blog (or allowed me to procrastinate more!). We continue to tend to our customers and provide the excellent service they expect. One recent customer left us this wonderful feedback:"Great communication, item and quick postage even though overseas!" And a bit ago, another left this: "This item was perfectly described and was exactly what I was hoping for. Shipping was fast, and this was a very positive shopping experience! I received very personalized care and attention from the seller while they went out of their way to ensure that it arrived in time for me to include it with a Christmas package to my sister. I will definitely shop with heffyscollections in the future."
So come see us and participate in the Heffy's Collections experience!
