I didn�t do a lot of thrifting this weekend, but the little bit I did do was fabulous. I found two skirts for my sister and two coats for myself. This is one of the coats:
Isn�t it adorable?!
I love the polka dots (of course) and the crazy, dramatic collar.
Not only is the coat (Mycra Pac via Goodwill) spotted and dramatic, it is also water-resistant, wrinkle-resistant and reversible! And, you can find it
here, but, be warned, it costs considerably more than the $12.99 I paid at Goodwill.
In addition to my new coat, I also wore this dress (vintage Coco of California, thrifted):
It�s sooooo 70s, I couldn�t resist pairing it with my also-very-70s Eye of Sauron belt (thrifted, Goodwill). But, I did also add tights (SPANX via Nordstrom) and booties (Luxury Rebel �Yuma� via Piperlime) to try to modernize the look a bit. Because I do wear a lot of vintage clothes I try to be careful not to look like an extra in a period piece and I usually do that with my shoes. It�s hard to resist the urge to go full 70s though; if I�d had the right pair of heeled boots, I think I would have worn them.
What about you, Reader Friends? Do you try to modernize your vintage or do you go full Foxy Brown?
Happy Monday, Everyone!
Gracey
