Vintage Love: Subtextstyle



Dahlings, looking for affordable vintage looks? Check out my friend Roseli's store Subtextstyle on Etsy for some fun, eclectic notice me looks. Her shop "features a carefully curated selection of one-of-a-kind pieces" with a special focus on must have vintage accessories, shoes and fashions.


I reserved the garden party dress pictured above and received it at work and couldn't wait to get home to try it on, so I tried it on in my office bathroom. Good fit but I've taken it home to really get a feel for it. At $25, you can't beat the price. I would probably swap out the belt since I don't really like things to be too matchy-matchy. And I'm not sure I would be bold enough to wear this with blue tights. But it's a cute Spring/Summer look and fits right in the garden glamour trend that's so hot right now.

I also purchased this cute v-sweater about two months ago and love it. I love the gathered waist and cutout detail accents on the length of the sleeve. Love. Love.



But for more fun finds check out Subtextstyle! And the best part is, you won't feel guilty after making a purchase since you'll be promoting  reuse and sustainability, and supporting an independent designer. Go secondhand shopping!
