light hearted

 (coat-vintage via The Fine Art of Design, shorts- Diane von Furstenberg, blouse-Zara, sash-Tory Burch, clutch- c/o Tiffany & Co, scarf-H&M, shoes-Zara, bracelets-vintage, J. Crew, ring- Tiffany & Co)
I love a great vintage find and this coat is the epitome of just that. Found at my favorite vintage store, The Fine Art of Design, out in Palm Desert. Absolutely worth the trip, especially if you're already out there for Coachella.
Did I mention this coat came with a matching 60's shift dress?
Impeccably preserved by, what I'm assuming could only be, a feverishly stylish old lady with a love for for mini skirts.
