vintage feel

Vintage clothes are always such a treat- riffling through racks and racks of random clothes, which sometimes smell of moth balls, to find that perfect piece. It's sort of like a treasure hunt for the shopoholic. But what I love even more are the hand-me-down pieces you get from friends and family which have been around longer than your parents. I have some of my grandma's old dresses and accessories, and not only are they gorgeous but its like wearing a piece of family history when I put them on. So building up from my grandma's belt (pictured below), a staple in my wardrobe, I decided to go as vintage as I could this morning when I get dressed.
