In Indianapolis, there is an amazing artsy community called Broadripple.
In Broadripple there are cornucopia of cute little shops & inspiration galore! This past Christmas I wanted to go to a vintage consignment store I had seen in Broadripple years before. But the only problem was that I had no clue where *exactly* it was. After walking all around Broadripple, defeated, we got into the car & started to drive back to where we were staying, I found it. I screamed (much to the dismay of the passengers of the car) "THAT'S IT!!!!!!"
& there it was, a store filled with vintage & retro clothes. I was so excited to start looking through everything & finding those perfect vintage pieces. I feel that I was victorious in my quest when I bought a whole pile of goodies.
The sweater I wore here, I got at the store. Another treasure I found there is this skirt.
boots/nine west//tights/target//skirt/thrifted//navy sweater/hand-me down//aqua sweater/thrifted//owl necklace/areopostle
The skirt waistband had to be taken in (alot!), but it's amazing!
You can't really see in the pictures but the fabric has metallic silver thread in the fabric. It basically looks like tiny, tiny silver sequins all over the skirt.
*Sigh* I love.
Any favorite thrifted pieces you've found?

My outfit was inspired by this post at Koi Story.
