Wearing Vintage in a Modern World
TIPS for Vintage in a Modern World
1. Pick garments that look like current trends. Fashion goes in full circle. Fashion today is just a reinterpretation of styles from the past. The base of today's trends stems from styles as far back as the 1800's. As time changes, a touch of more modern effect is given to the garments worn today. Majority of designers today use vintage clothing as their inspiration.

Vintage and Thrift: Refashion Tip from M.Nicole - Dress Refashioned to a Blouse
Big shout out to Monique N. Dickinson (a/k/a The Fashion Surgeon) of Donnie Nicole for this awesome refashion tip. I recently joined in on Monique's repurposing your closet segment on Google Hangout. I emailed one of my garments that I love but no longer fits right for a repurposing idea from the fashion surgeon herself. I loved her tip. It worked and I love it! As you will see in photos below, I submitted this vibrant color block shift dress to Monique. I've had the dress in the my closet for three years. I was going to donate it to my neighborhood Goodwill but Monique saved it! See below and check out how my dress is now a beautiful blouse. Thanks Monique!

Vintage and Thrift: Poncho and Booties
My first blog post in 2015. I am truly excited about this new year. It means...more time with family and friends and another opportunity to get it right. More excitingly, another year to have fun and thrift! My 2015 thrift goal is to simply shop my closet more. You will see several sweet repeats this year but with a different twist. Hope the new year is treating you well so far.
