Recently I have become absolutely obsessed with vintage clothes. The bad thing is that in Portugal, or at least in Lisbon, there aren't many vintage shops and the few that exist are really expensive. It's a real shame. The vintage mania hasn't seeped into portuguese culture...YET!
Here are some of my vintage clothes:
This is my brother in law's vest from the 90's... I think.... My sister was going to through out because she hates it to death. I fell in love with it and rescued it from my sister's hands. My mum is now also obsessed with the vest. We now have fights over who's going to wear it.
The detail is just amazing! The colours and the elephant are just beautiful, reminds me of India. I can't forget to ask my brother in law where he got it.
This jacket is my mum's, but she has handed it down to me! I think it's from the 80's, again I'm not sure. My mum had it made for herself, she chose the fabric and the buttons. The fabric is really soft and the colour is just breath taking.
Again this belt belongs to my mum, well actually it's mine now :) It's also from the 80's. Every little detail is beautiful. I've been wearing it non stop.
This bag I bought in Switzerland, in a little town that I have completely forgotten the name of. The shop is the cutest thing I have ever seen in my life. It's pink and has roses all over the place... what else can a girl ask for?? I'm a lace addict, so I had to buy it. From the photo, you can't really see clearly, the fabric has a zebra pattern, but in creme, beige tone. I also adore the different shades of the lace, even though that might be due to the fact that it's got some years. I also bought a beautiful white coat in that store, BUT my sister stole and now it's on the other side of the Atlantic ocean!! I'm expecting it back mana! asap!
