People often ask where we get the pieces that we sell in our shop. A lot of it is from thrift stores. But sometimes we get lucky and someone will be cleaning out their attic or basement and find some old/unloved pieces that they pass along to us. Recently my parents' neighbor lady gave me a bag of clothes that she thought I might want to try and sell. A horrible 1980's sweater with scalloped neckline and giant shoulder pads, some old-ladyish pleated wool pants and this amazing 1970's maxi skirt that belonged to her daughter. The other stuff went to Good Will, but this skirt went into the shop! I borrowed it yesterday because I love it so.
This little munchkin always insists on joining me for pictures! I love it.

This was quite a bright look compared to my usual choice in clothing. I would love to see the skirt paired with just a simple white tank top...that might make it a little more me. But I'm sending it out into the world so some lucky girl can make it her own!
