Observe the Found

Just like I enjoy hole in the wall restaurants, I enjoy hole in the wall vintage shops as well.  Today on my way home from Downtown, LA I saw this cute crochet top on the mannequin that looked like perfect Coachella attire.  I parked the car and went into the store; it looked slightly unhip and unfinished but I took a look anyway and found great pieces at some serious low prices.   I had been so sick of second hand stores that are lined up on Melrose and Fairfax, and Vermont etc. etc... I forgot how amazing (and INEXPENSIVE) they can be.  I liked that it was simple, not overflowing with clothes, and smelled --normal (no grungy pre-worn smell).  

So I'm glad to say I bought the white crochet top that caught my eye in the first place.





As well as this awesomely unique looking mesh/poly dress that can be turned into a skirt; will be perfect for a black tie event, or couture fashion shoot if ever I need.




They're having a bin sale this weekend...so go, go, go!
