Thought green was appropriate for the first day of The GreenShows. I found this dress at Guvnor’s Vintage Thrift in Park Slope, one of my fave places to shop for vintage. I think it was $27, definitely one of my best vintage finds ever. The boots are another, scored at Beacon’s Closet this weekend for $34.95 (more pics to come).

En klänning fick följa med hem, militärgrön med snygg och ovanlig passform (ser ut som att det kan vara en tillskräddad militäruniform eller nåt). Visar snart.

Det som inte fick följa med hem: Bud-bikinitopp och “Dick” skärp – båda underbara (bild 1) samt en fin klänning, lite prärie-mashup (bild 3). Bild 4: bodybuilderbyxor från 80-talet (lite för korta), linnetopp med fin meshdetalj på ärmen (passformen var inte hundra), sailorjacka (lite för gullig för mig), “Charlie’s Angel”-väst med fransar (lite för mycket Halloweenkostym-aktig), 50-talstopp (väldigt Mad Men, men lite för genomskinling och nopprig) och randing sparkdräkt (för stor över axlarna).

Smet även in på Beacon’s Closet innan jag begav mig hemåt. Fick med mig ett mockafransskärp och en skinnkeps, visar snart.

Discovered a new vintage store in my hood today! Guvnor’s Vintage Thrift is on 5th Avenue in Park Slope and has been open for about a month. They have a great mix of 50/60/70s and Americana. Lots of great boots, many of which look like they are bigger sizes that I can actually wear (I often shop the mens section in vintage stores since that’s often the only place one can find sizes 10 and up). I’ll get back to those some other time.

One dress got to come with me home, army green with a sort of unusual shape (looks like it could be a tailored military uniform or something). I’ll show it off soon.

The stuff that didn’t get to come with me: Bud bikini-top and “Dick” belt — both wonderful (pic 1) and a nice dress, very prarie mashup (pic 3). Pic 4: body builder pants from the 80s (a bit too short), linen T-shirt with nice mesh detail on the sleeves (the fit wasn’t quite there), sailor jacket (too cute for me), “Charlie’s Angel” vest with fringe (too Halloween costumey), 50s top (very Mad Men, but a bit too see through and well-worn) and a stripey romper (too big over the shoulders).

Snuck into Beacon’s Closet as well before heading home. Took home a suede fringe belt and a leather cap, will show ‘em soon.
