Flowerstone: Fashion Reuse and Restyle |
Hi, I'm Bebe. If shopping at high end stores for unique yet pricey items leaves you with the feeling that you've sacrificed a little bit of your soul (and a lot of your wallet) ... this is where you'll get a little daily perspective on how to shop for, reuse and re-style old pieces of clothing that you probably would never look twice at. I'll give tips on how to shop in a vintage and thrift environment and ideas on how to restyle things in your closet that might be an inch from wardrobe retirement. All photos are of either me or my friends dressed in thrift, vintage, and/or reconstructed pieces mixed in with newly bought items--- Can you tell which items are "used"? ;) |
been a while here is one of my most comfortable thrifted outfits… The top is a lightweight breathable poly and the pants 100% silk …the necklace I found for a dollar (I left the tag on ;) at Eco …it was so weird and looked straight out of the Flinstones so I had to have it ^_^ (Taken with instagram)

This was actually a special shoot with my cousin who came into town for the week.
She’s a singer/songwriter/ukulele extraordinaire so be sure to check her out on YouTube via Jomel Sumira ;)
In the meantime enjoy more from the shoot. She is in a repost of a top I purchased from Goodwill and a skirt I purchased from Eco :)
