Wallflower: Colorful Vs Black & Grey

Hello. I hope you've all had a great weekend. My Sunday had been wonderful. I was out the whole day which is very invigorating - the sun wasn't too strong and the weather was fairly cool. Spent the entire morning with my hubby and later in the evening, we finally got to see the film version of the musical Les Miserables. It made me want to read the novel again. I have read it a few years back and even then I cried buckets. Yes, I did cry in the theater.  The songs were amazing. There's a huge difference reading the printed page and with the story being told through songs. How spectacular it must be to watch the theatrical play!  Have you seen Les Mis?  Which adaptation did you see?

In the afternoon, I was with So and we managed to take some shots (using my phone) of our outfits that day in-between walks and conducting studies. How I wish I had taken my Canon with me.

 On Me:
vintage dotted cardigan (thrifted)

grey floral dress from a local boutique / Label: "For Me" 

vintage leather cross body bag in peach/ Label: ANS (thrifted)

On Her: 

lavender turtle neck sweater

vintage corduroy jacket (thrifted)

vintage floral skirt (thrifted)

super cute polka dot shoes (local shop)

We wore very contrasting styles that day. She's wearing tops in pastel colors and a vibrant printed skirt while I was wearing a black polka dot blazer over a grey dress. Our common denominator? We both had on vintage pieces that we got at practically a steal and we are smiling :)

Wallflower: Floral Vintage Dress

One of my favorite thrift finds is this floral vintage dress. I bought it a few years ago from a secondhand clothing shop for a little over a dollar. I love it not only because it was such a bargain but also because I have this thing about vintage floral patterns.  The dress is in light cream with yellow flowers and golden yellow piping on the neckline.  I got it in good condition - no stains or snags, and it fits me perfectly!

What's your favorite vintage piece in your closet?
