Une p'tite obsession

Just to prove to you my obsession with crop tops, here's another one! I didn't do it on purpose, I swear. I t's just something I realized I hadn't worn before. I bought this little top last September while I was visiting some friends in Vancouver. We stumbled upon this little Mom & Pop thrift store on our way to, where else, Value Village and saw that they were having a HUGE SALE! So how could we not go in? Well, we were pleased to find out that the sale was 50% off any item that was red, purple, or green. While standing in line with our soon to be purchases, my friend and I were debating on whether that meant that the tag had to be a certain color of the actual garment? So we waited until it was our turn to find out. Pop, that's what I'm calling the man behind the register, picks up this top and inspects it. Really closely, and says: "Well, I think I see some purple in there". One dollar!" Cha ching !! It was the color of the garment after ...

Proud to be a Dusty Rose

For the past few weeks I've been working on a little collaboration with the online shop Dusty Rose Vintage . I've been a fan of theirs ever since I spotted them on chictopia and was happy to find out that they're based right here in Brooklyn! I met up with Renae, one half of the company, at their Williamsburg studio to basically play dress up. Racks upon racks of vintage clothing at my disposal to take home and style up to my liking. Who wouldn't want that?  Since I'm not that thrilled about what i was wearing today, I'm posting one of the outfits I put together using an item from their shop which you can findon Etsy . So if you like the item, you get the chance to actually buy it! I've included the links below. (featured item: 50's school girl crop sweater ) I grabbed this sweater because..well...it's cropped and for some reason I love buying crop tops and never wearing them. Honestly. I think I've acquired 5 this past summer and wore 2 of them...
