The best thing ever happened...

It was 5:06 p.m. and I was on my way to my dear friend Nikki's house. I saw a sign for an estate sale, and decided to press my luck. I found a belt, and went up the stairs. There were a bunch of old board games, but it seemed like a dud. Then, the woman came upstairs and told me they were getting ready to leave. "Do you like old clothes?" she asked. I said of course. She then led me to an ENTIRE closet filled with vintage dresses. Good ones and amazing condition. I nearly cried. I began throwing the ones I wanted on the floor in a frenzy.

I ended up getting 30 or so dresses for about 36 bucks. i literally just gave them all the money I had in my wallet and split.

Oddly enough, all but 2 fit. I usually have trouble with vintage dresses because (in my opinion) I have an unusually large ribcage. This one is my favorite. Red roses, black buttons and a white collar. Love.

I made this flowerhead band for a craft swap with my new friend Lauren.
