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…. :)


Did I mention how cheap it was? :)



































Just love it. Beautiful. Have a good week.
So great for lounging by the pool or wearing to the beach.. A party with some great shoes??? voila!
Beautiful! I wish I could have gotten to SOWA this weekend…I spent all of Sunday helping my friend do a trial run of cake-baking for her wedding. It was quite the day!
Very SATC in Abu Dabi! Love it.
Serious score! That is beautiful. Lucky you.
Lucky!! I love this – totally my style. Can’t wait to see how it looks after you shorten it.

That is such a great score! Wow!
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!
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.
Beautiful tunic. It’s going to look incredible shortened.
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.
