{dress: vintage Flora Kung; bag: vintage; lucite heels: Aldo (old); bracelets: David Yurman & thrifted; rings: etsy & vintage; watch: Michael Kors}

I fell instantly in love with this vintage Flora Kung silk dress I picked up while thrifting a couple months ago. The colors instantly caught my attention and when I tried it on I was smitten. I love the cut of the sleeves and the way the dress just hugs my body. It's uber soft and comfy too! I had no idea who Flora Kung was until my girl Dree Harper clued me in on her... Flora designed some stunning pieces in the 80's and was dubbed "Princess of Prints" by Vogue. I'm happy to have stumbled upon one of her gorgeous pieces. That's another thing I love about thrifting... getting aquainted with old-school designers that I would have never known about had I not discovered them during one of my treasure hunts in thrift/vintage shops!

  4. I love this color on you! And the perfect matching of hot pink lips! Gorgeous combo...I thrift all the time and literally have not the slightest idea who these dress designers are...all I know is if it fits well, it's meant to be :D Love how vintage dresses are usually made right here in Cali...makes me so proud :D
