I'm a huge advocate for vintage shopping but I have always run into the same problem whether it's ordering vintage dresses from online or finding them at my local shops... the fit of the garment. I am totally disproportional! Well, I am with measurements as far as vintage dresses are concerned. I have to take most dresses in, and only in some areas (ahem, mostly the bust) and well I will just say I have a slew of "needs to be altered" vintage dresses hanging in my closet now.
Though I love true vintage, I also L-O-V-E modern day wear made to look vintage! Especially clothes that are made well! Take for example the dresses shown above. Awesome right?! I recently discovered Shabby Apple and all its goodness. I literally was swooning as I stared at dress after dress and page after page through their online shop! I seriously needed almost every single one of their vintage inspired dresses and the best part, I can order it in my correct size!
Just take a look at some of my faves!
Umm can we say so Fab!! I seriously love their dresses not to mention their collection of skirts and blouses!
I can't even talk about their accessories and shoes because, well we'd be here all week, but here are a few treasures I fell in love with below!
As if having a line of ridiculously cute vintage and retro inspired dresses wasn't enough, Shabby Apple basically made their boutique a one stop shop when you include their maternity, kids, swimwear and fitness lines!
Plus they have great customer service features (live chat, fit guide, style advice, free returns etc.)
I know, too much goodness right!
Well, it get's even better because you have the chance to score a $50 Shabby Apple Gift Card! Personally,if I won a gift card I would put it towards one (if not all)of these dresses I fell in love with below. I mean any of these would be perfect to rock at an upcoming Holiday Cocktail party or any festive event! So vintage, so frilly, so me!Plus they have great customer service features (live chat, fit guide, style advice, free returns etc.)
I know, too much goodness right!
