    Did I make a boo-boo by not buying this dress?

    How can you tell if the clothing is truly vintage?

    Forgive me if this question has already been asked. And, if there's a thread, would you kindly direct me to it? Thanks oodles. :) I have a hard time telling when clothes are vintage, or just 80's repos. What are key things to look for? Thank you!
