Vintage Overall Dress via Style Station (similar), Free People Top (old, similar), Urban Outfitters Bag (similar), Nine West Booties (old, similar), Storie in Italy Necklace, Piuma Meister Jewelry Earrings
This overall dress I bought in West, TX about a month ago... It's basically the best. When a vintage piece fits me this well I just can't help but get extremely excited. This little number is vintage Gap (from the 1970s). I actually picked it out with the intention of selling it in my shop but I accidentally decided to try it on. Needless to say, I won't be selling this beauty any time soon. And the tag is amazing (this is what it looks like). I don't know why Gap ever decided to change their tags to anything else. The more I go out thrifting for vintage the more of a vintage tag nerd I become. Vintage tags are so much more beautiful than modern day ones. I don't know what it is. In general, I find that the craftsmanship on vintage clothing is just so much more thoughtful. Sorry for sounding like a vintage snob... Let's move on, shall we?
Two other special things about this outfit are the jewelry pieces I got from some friends in Italy. The necklace has a vintage pendant and is handcrafted together by my friend Gina. I will have a few of these available at my pop-up next month in various different designs. The earrings are by a friend of a friend in Italy as well who also makes all her jewelry by hand. I will be selling a lot of Piuma's pieces at my event next month too. So, you should come if you're in Austin! Find out more info about when and where right here.
