Shimmy Shimmy


alvina wears

vintage embroidered jacket
tee made by self
lee denim shorts
staccato calf boots
country road patent leather bag

As you might be aware by now, i'm a lover of vintage goods! I find it's the best because you definitely get the quality for more than half less retail price. My vintage jacket was only $29! It was of very good fabric with special patterns embroidered on, giving it that shimmy shimmy. Whereas if I went to the mall, for $29 the best I could have gotten was a crappy mass produced trend piece. Anyways, hope you all have a lovely week =)) xoxo

I agree with you. Better quality and there aren't very many similar pieces around. Love the pattern of the jacket.

I've always find vintage shopping a little tough since on the days I go with my mind set on finding something, I come out empty handed.. But whenever I see great things on my friends and they tell me they found it through thrift stores, I'm always jealous!

This looks really good on you. I love vintage pieces too, but sadly here aren't many sacond hand shops with real vintage clothes and if you go on fleamarkets, you will find only musty old clothes.
