My thrift store finds are usually not so impressive;) I haven't worn or made any vintage outfits, but I've recently become rather smitten with Alfred Shaheen style Hawaiian dresses. *Sigh* they make me swoon! haha:)<br /><br /> Since I've become more into sewing, I would feel more confident wearing something retro/vintage as long as it was something I really adored! Besides, who decides whats "in" anyway? Clothing designers shouldn't dictate what I should or shouldn't wear;)RikkiBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06354067584252095339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5326506316908891143.post-86243157437696380172014-10-14T09:05:17.799-03:002014-10-14T09:05:17.799-03:00You're right, it does take a lot of looking to...You're right, it does take a lot of looking to find the gems.
