Being Retro

i was shopping for possible things to sell in my store (yeah sorry it’s been empty for like, ever) and came across this dowdy, floor-length denim dress. i nearly skimmed past it but took a second look and realized the many possibilities it held. my mind conjured up old daydreams of owning a denim dress reminiscent of the 50’s, and i was instantly sold. i took it home and had it hemmed to a more wearable midi length — and now i am obsessed with it. i’m still unsure whether i should sell or keep it for myself, but i’ll cross that bridge when it’s time to actually update the shop. for now, i see many adventures awaiting me and my new (old) dress…

dress – thrifted, altered
heels – privileged
