My Obsessions: 1950's "Ceeb of Miami" Jumpsuits

 An old Ceeb ad. DROOL.

 Me performing with my band, The Amandas, in my one and only Ceeb suit. I scored this baby online for a mere $98!!

 A friend of mine's private collection. I know, I know- couldn't you just DIE?

 2 lovely pieces from Where It's At Vintage.

 Some vintage Ceeb tags. The top is from a mens cotton shirt, the bottom is from a jumpsuit.

  1. Those are amazing! Yours is especially cool, with it's music motif...so appropriate!I've never run across one of these. Are they lined inside?

  2. The top parts are lined, but not the legs. Yes, they are super rare. One of those weird 1950's articles of clothing that's so weird and wonderful that they're always big bucks when you do find them! I think every Ceeb suit is now owned by a collector, not just some grandma that has one left over from her "hot mama" days. :) Dang it!
