A couple weeks ago we girls were thinking about how much we loved some of the vintage goodies we were seeing on eBay. We finally decided, "why not??"--- Abi and Achaia took the plunge, and their finds came this week. Victory.... The girls couldn't be happier with their new-to-them vintage clothes! (In fact, these pictures were taken just about 10 minutes after the package was opened.) Now we're completely sold on the idea. Have any of you tried wearing vintage clothes as everyday wear??

PS So sorry if you feel a little picture overloaded! It was just too much fun.
How cute! The dress and the skirt are both so adorable and... Well, vintage! Great finds!
Many Blessings,
Jenna

The girls look absolutely darling! But please define "vintage"?! I have indeed worn vintage clothes as everyday wear...I swear I had that same dress my first year of college and the skirt at about the same time! The girls make it all look great again...but at (11 days in front of) 40, are my faves from college *really* vintage?! Eeek!
I suppose it's time to face it...they make it look so much cuter than I could these days! :-)

I am giggling at this. In my closet, these would not be vintage. They would just be "clothing".

OK, scarey, vintage. I think I had a dress just like this. It is much prettier on you.

I had been thinking the same thing as Christine! When I first saw the clothes I thought that's the stuff I wore when I was in my late teens early 20's!! Irecently turned 40. Me, vintage??? hahaha :o)

Great! This is my second pair of MBT but first pair of maryjanes. Love them. Very light but still provide the same feel as the lace up!

Thanks so much for all the lovely comments! As to their "vintageness", Christine, Sivje, and Joanna, we're not sure. They were labeled Vintage '90s, which is funny, since we were born then! Maybe they are more vintage because they've been pre-worn. But, we would love to try out some more "real" vintage--- lets say, something from the '50s.

You two are so beautiful! I am looking thinking I bought a similar styled skirt like Achaia's when I lived in Dallas in the 90's! Except mine was red and would fit with the Dolly Dresses lines.... Good gravy I was in my 20's am I vintage? Hahahaha!Don't answer that! =O

It is a good tongue that says no ill, and a better heart that thinks none.
