Fashion Is So Passé

Zarie told me I had to let you guys know why I love vintage so much. . . . WHERE DO I BEGIN? When I buy something from a store and its vintage I think to myself. . . . Where did this women wear it? Was it a grand event, something spectacular in her life, a moment in a night when they were wearing this bag these shoes this dress and it all changed? I make up stories in my head , you'll often hear me say to Zarie or Jen when we are shopping - "Maybe she wore this clutch on her 1st date with her future husband? Maybe she had a great interview and wore this button down under that blazer and got a promotion? Maybe that Fringe dress was worn out dancing on her 30th birthday?" It sort of connects me to the past that I love so much. The women that they were, makes me feel like I am sharing in that moment all over again. The women who wore all these things that I love to collect that had that special flare that saw the greatness in each piece of clothing or accessory that I NOW HOLD.
When Zarie and Jen came to me with this grand idea HOW COULD I NOT JUMP ON IT A lot of travel - a lot of shopping - a little planning. . . sounds like a FANTASTIC TIME to me . . . JOIN US FOR THE RIDE its sure to be amusing!!
