Outfit: Vintage Through and Through

 As you may already know, I am particularly fond of vintage clothing. There is something unique and timeless about them that I find endearing. This dress in its natural state has large, puffy sleeves. I always meant to alter it myself but I never did get around to it. A simple fix was just to roll it up a bit so as to seem like my shoulders were being gobbled up by all that fabric. I think it looks rather nice this way. The only problem is that the dress doesn't stay buttoned! I had already left the house when I realized this misfortune. Luckily for me, no one else was around to see. And the bobby pins I found in my backpack saved the day!

 Fashion is fickle by nature and trends come and go as quick as the blink of an eye. I am often falling behind and when I do catch up, the new thing is already in. Honestly, I don't mind. I'll go at my own pace and if it's deemed "out of fashion," then so be it. These heels would be considered "granny heels" in this day and age, but I love it dearly. It was in excellent condition when I received it - as if they had never been worn. They have just enough height to make it very suitable for walking. As the weather cools down, I'll be wearing it more often.
