An Amazing Draped & Cut Marni Dress

This is not vintage of course but I just cannot turn down a beautiful dress even if it is from a much more recent time period. If you are a Marni fan you know how genius she cuts every piece and this one is particularly ingenius. The top is cut to never sit flat and even though I have shown it like this, you can wear it a few different ways. Its cut and seamed through the hips so it holds that wild, asymmetrical shape but I have also worn my Marni's belted and cinched in at the waist - this also allows you to hike em up and make them shorter for a sexier evening type look. The fabric is of course a work of art. The dress has never been worn

Everyday Vintage

A lot of girls think that vintage is a special occasion kind of thing. And it is! But great basics are great basics and you cannot rule out vintage as day wear. Today I threw on this fabulous tan 1970s Halston trench over a dress and I think it gave it the shot of daytime it needed. I love love love this trench - its classic but the extra wide, and long pointed collar give it that fabulous twist that only vintage Halston can give!

I am getting a ton of emails and requests for more shots of real life vintage like these ones, so I will try to accommodate. Can I tell you I have a new found respect for all those girls that post daily pictures of what they are wearing - its a slight pain in the ass and I have to tell you it makes you feel a bit bashful......but I get that it is fun to see and I check out other girls to see how they wear stuff too.... so I will try to do a few a week.
