{dress: thrifted; shoes: Nine West (old); belt + necklace + bangle: vintage; watch: Michael Kors}


I decided to pair this sweet little lace dress with some tribal accessories... a beaded Navajo belt and necklace. Sure I could have paired this dress with some lovely heels, but I wanted to go outside the box. This dress was a great thrift find. Only cost me $5.00 and the belt and necklace were also thrift purchases for under $5.00! I went thrifting today and picked up some ah-mazing finds... among them: a canary yellow silk Diane Von Furstenberg pencil skirt, a peach slip dress, a bright colored blazer, and a couple floral jackets that were originally paired with night gowns but look so great worn as a kimono jacket with the big sleeves and length. P.S. I haven't updated my shop in almost a year, so stay tuned because I will be adding some vintage! Yay for tomorrow being Friday! xo! :D
