To hem or not to hem?

As Ive said before I love vintage dresses. Particularly 50s style knee length dresses. My only problem is standing at 5 feet tall every dress I look at is longer than desired so brings my question for today, How do you feel about hemming vintage dresses? Do you believe it adds to the dress or ruins its integrity?

An enchanted feeling...

I bought this vintage 60s shirt off of the amazing etsy store Capricous Traveler a couple of months ago and decided it was more of a spring shirt so it sat in my closet until this morning. It feels like spring is almost here in Minnesota and I hope no more snow comes and delays it any longer...


I love that this shirt appears to be handmade. Theres no tag and the sewing is wonderful! I wish clothes were still made like this...
This weekend Jordan brought me a rose when he came to see me.It gives me an enchanted feeling...
We both went thrifting this weekend, I found this amazing blue vintage samsonite suitcase and these flats for $1.50!
And their pointy!
Camisole: Old Navy
Blouse: Etsy, Capricous Traveler
Jeans: Pac Sun
Socks (Grey): Modcloth
Socks (White): Target
Shoes: Thrifted
Ring: Thrifted
Necklace: Thrifted
I cant think of any better way to spend my valentines day than thrifting with Jordan! Whats your idea of the perfect valentines date?
Happy Wednesday,
Sarah

Good Vintage?

Living in a college town I'm not surrounded by thrift/vintage shops to rake through so I must turn to the Internet. Although I'm a huge fan of etsy, ebay and market publique I keep finding myself desiring other vintage forums, but when I search for them all I come up with are overpriced beauties or cheap duds. So whats your favorite online place for vintage clothing?

Pin Curls.


My hair though naturally curly is oddly boring some days and I want to switch it up a little bit. So does anyone know a good way to do pin curls? Im slighty at a loss.

Happy Thursday,
