Weekend Score!

Check out this GORGEOUS 1960′s embroidered brown tunic dress I scored this weekend at the SoWa Open Market! I’m going to shorten it to be a mini dress (the length, while cool, does not work on me). Please ignore my unmade bed in the background…. :)

    Wow, how gorgeous! I just moved to Boston, and I’m SO excited to check out the SoWa market!

    Very nice; will agree that it’ll look better as a short dress. I can picture it with turquoise & gold jewelry and some tall wedges or espadrilles!

  16. Averill says:

    Very cool! And yes, that’s a whole lotta brown as a long dress; short is a great idea! You’ll have to wear it for one of your outfit Fridays.

  17. Jessica says:

    Beautiful tunic. It’s going to look incredible shortened.

  18. Delightful & Delovely says:

    Yeehaaa!!!!!
    I have a few vintage fab binds that still adorn my life & those never ever get old simply by your method of discovery.
    Promise you’ll snap a pic of you in the newly shortened chic piece.
