Personal Style, Vintage & Thrift finds

7 Comments 11 January 2010

I came across some old(er) photos while backing up my computer, which I’m supposed to do weekly but am more likely to do quarterly. Ah, well.

The skirt and top are both thrift store finds–the skirt stood out because I’m always drawn to bold stripes, and little boy’s oxford shirts are permanently on my “I need more of these” list.

I picked up this sweater dress (again, while thrifting) because the embroidery reminded me of something Consuela Castiglione would send down the runway at Marni. Plus, I have a thing for cozy sweater dresses–really, I have a thing for any kind of clothing that feels like a lounging robe sans the fear of flashing the neighbors.

Which I would only do if they were willing to pay.

    Love the skirt, it’s amazing! Love the pattern on the dress as well. I wish we had nice op shops in my area.

    Thanks! I think the secret to finding good stuff is timing and patience.
