Loved this post, I definitely need to try on some vintage dresses. I had always been put off by the fact that all vintage clothes are so dang long/massive on me and need to be altered, but maybe I need to accept it and just go for it!
love pretty penny, obsessed with dress 3, but feel you on 60s minis not being short enough! i always wonder how tall the original owner was because i feel like the photography i see from then makes it look like everyone did wear really short hemlines, so i’m always confused when they’re tagged mini but skim my knees.
literally watched in the mood for love for the first time this weekend and could NOT shut up about her dress collection! laughed when i saw the reference

same they must have been for taller folks! I love a true mini :)
I love the like… structured bust sweetheart top with thick straps on the one you bought! Any tips on what to search for for that kind of style?
I searched 2000s bustier/corset! That neckline was very popular

dress #5 looked so perfect with the sunglasses perched on your head!! chic but still summery and fun.
i need to give a look in to pretty penny, i'm getting fed up with all the "vintage" stores trying to sneak 2000s old navy into their stock lol
Feeling seen on the JSTOR synopsis section reference
Oh my GOD why didn't you buy dress #3!? You KILLED in that dress!
Although I admit the dress you did buy is axe murderer cute too I just wish you had modeled it.
It hasn’t arrived yet :)
Viv, please show us when it does. You are going to SLAY in that dress!
Nylon is not my favorite fabric! It kinda depends on the weave but I could tell it would agitate my sweat glands lol
