Cardigans, cardigans, cardigans!
Casey posted a really amazing tutorial on her blog about refashioning a cardigan here ("from frumpy to flattering!" lol). Haven't attempted it yet, but it's a brilliant idea if you're *ahem* budget conscious and find yourself falling in love with a *nearly perfect* (but irresistibly priced)...- dgenevieve

For the second time in a month, someone has told me I look like a young Elizabeth Taylor. The most recent one was able to specifically pinpoint her look in National Velvet.

Personal Rules for Vintage Shopping?
Such a great thread! I totally agree with the point that there's always another to-die-for dress next week. I ran into this problem at first, because omigoodness it's vintage and so unbearably unique and I'll never find a dress/skirt/etc. like this ever ever again and I just can't live with...- dgenevieve
