Earrings: old, similar pair. Necklace: Jewelmint. Bracelet: My Great-Grandmother's. Rings: Melinda Maria, Tiffany, custom at Diamond Direct.

If you've been here just a few weeks you likely know my passion for refined vintage garb.  If you live in the Queen City and you share an appreciation for rare and cultivated threads, you owe it to yourself to pay a visit to hong kong vintage on Central Avenue.  Of course, if you also possess the obsessed eye for such aesthetically resplendent threads, you may already know for yourself about the greatness at hong kong vintage.  This store provides the quintessential experience equivalent to that of a kid in a candy store, the getting is so sweet.  When deciding where Donna and I would shoot one of my favorite dresses which belonged to my Grandmother, hong kong vintage just made perfect sense.  Go get some sugar for yourself.

Thanks for being a sweetie and visiting!

PS-Did you notice in the top photo the Tartan Plaid Pendleton that is the dress to my jacket here??!

  2. STOP STOP STOP with that dress you're wearing. I am insane with jealousy over your grandmother's collection of vintage. If I were to raid my grandmother's closet, well, let's just say there would be plenty of house-dresses in double-knit polyester. Not QUITE so fabulous. Sigh. You are smashing as always. Have a fabooo weekend!!

    Mwah!

  9. Of course I noticed that dress matching your coat. I was preforming mental gymnastics figuring out how to get my hands on it haha. What a fun place to shop and play dress up! Let's make sure to add this to the list of places I want to see when I come visit ;) I'm sure you had a great time!
