My new vintage dresses.

May 31, 2012

Hello! :) Last year I discovered my passion for second hand and
vintage dresses and since then, I have been collecting some of them. :)
During spring I found those three lovely ones, the one in the middle
cost me 8€ (the most ‘expensive’ vintage dress I ever bought so far ;D)
and the two other ones cost me less than 4€ each. :) I love finding
those little treasures, I love wearing clothes no one else has and it’s
super to support a sustainable shopping behavior. I found the dress in
the middle while I was thrifting with my friends Jenny and Anja around
Easter and I bought the two other ones the day I met Sammy of The Cookie Button in Berlin. <3
As you can see, I just had to shorten
them and I turned one dress into a summer top. :) I think there will
follow a few outfit posts with me wearing those awesome pieces of
clothing. :)
Do you love thrifting as much as I do? :) What about vintage clothing? I’d love to hear your experiences.
Lu :)

    Tolle Stücke! Mir gefällt v.a. das erste! Seh ich richtig, dass da Kirschen drauf sind? oder sinds Blümchen? Egal, auch schön :-)
    Ich finde die Idee, alte Kleider umzugestalten, echt toll, allerdings hab ich hier noch keinen tollen second-hand-shop o.ä. gefunden…

    Das in der Mitte gefällt mir am besten. Vintage Kleider sind traumhaft, leider habe ich in Wien noch keine richtigen Läden dafür gefunden, die meisten Second Hand Shops geben nicht so viel her :(
    Outfit Posts wären toll :)

    Those are lovely dresses! I love vintage dresses but usually they need some adjustment. Now my sewing skills are improving this can be all part of the fun!

    völlig großartig…alle drei miteinander…wobei das erste schon einen kleinen vorsprung vor den anderen beiden hat…vielleicht liegt es an dem zauberhaftem blümchen.muster…;) liebe grüße alex

    Mir gefällt das mittlere am besten – tolle Farben!
    Ich bin auf Tragefotos gespannt.
    Nur mal ne neugierige Frage: Sind die Kleider einfach so "uncool" lang, oder bist du so klein? :)
    Mir sind ja Kleider und Röcke oft fast zu kurz – jedenfalls die Kleider, die man heutzutage in den Geschäften bekommt…
