New Vintage
I must admit, I am a sucker for anything vintage: clothing, accessories, fine china, furniture… If it wasn’t made in this decade, there is a good chance I like it. I like old things because they have character and a story; I can just sit back and imagine who owned the vintage items I now have. I also like that there is a very small chance of seeing someone else with the same exact 1960s bag or 1920s fine china set.With that said, as much as I love looking for vintage dresses and tailoring them to fit me, once in a long while I can’t help but pick up a new dress, like the one pictured here, that just happens to look vintage. No tailoring required.
Wearing: Forever 21 dress, Kensie belt, Stephane de Raucourt shoes, US Polo Assn sunglasses, MICHAEL Michael Kors bag, BCBG watch
I wore this outfit yesterday when Nik and I went for a walk/shopping at the outlet mall by my house. I’m obsessed with the BCBG store there! I cinched in my dress with a wide belt (worn backwards) to define the waist a little bit more and added these comfy shoes that pick up the blue in the frock. I also found that wearing my hair in an easy ponytail and adding aviatiors (as opposed to the big vintage frames I would normally reach for) made the vintage inspired pieace look a bit more current.
That’s it for this post. :) Have a lovely day, everyone!
Love,
Anna
