Those Tricks: A Retrospective
Gosh, all bloggers should do this!
So cool to see my own waves of trends in style (wardrobe & blog art) and even color over the last two years.
Those Tricks focused in on resale style after I dove into the world of thrifting
while helping Marianne Newsom costume a low-budget theater play in Dallas.
Though I’d been an avid Buffalo Exchange customer for a decade, before the play
I had no idea of the vast treasure lying around in these low-priced recycling shops (aka thrift stores)!
Not only does it align with my “waste not” life philosophy,
but thrifting is a way to self-school about the history of fashion.
And, of course, is extremely gentle on the pocket book.
But you already know that.
Before I leave you for a few weeks, one more piece of news!
I’m heading north to Chicago at the beginning of October to visit with Lisa of Archives Vintage.
Can’t wait to meet her in person and get an insiders’ experience of the town
(been a few times, but never had a magical visit).
Also giddily anxious to get my hands on some of her super fab vintage pieces!!
Until next time…
