It's vintage baby!

I love collecting old stuff.

But these days one can never be sure if something really is vintage, since the term 'vintage' is so bastardized already by now. These however are definitely vintage - few of the many treasures I found searching my mother's closet and hand me downs.

Huge Jackie-O sunnies circa 1960s I wear despite the very visible scratches on the lenses.

And a black and white forest motive shift dress circa late 1970s (a dress my grandmother handmade for my mother, and passed down to me)
