Featured Friday!- Charley


Hello, everyone! I am back again with another feature! Today's feature is Charley from the Charley Girl! This lady has major style and today she is here to talk to us about vintage clothing! Let's see what she has to say:


Tell us a little about yourself:
I am a 23 year old, vintage obsessed, tattooed stylist and fashion blogger!
What is your favorite vintage outfit?
I am so bad at favorites when it comes to my wardrobe, this post on one of my 70's floral minis is at the top of the list though!
What tips do you have any tips for any amateur vintage seekers reading?
Learn to sew! Vintage doesn't always come perfect, learn to hem, to switch out buttons and replace zippers. Also, check out flea markets, garage and estate sales as well as your usual thrift stores.
How can you tell whether a vintage find is retro chic, or just needs to be retired?
It depends on your personal taste. Vintage treasure usually coincides with whats in style now. Ex: 90's floral rompers and crop tops were thrift store junk until a couple years ago!
Do you personally find more cute vintage clothing or accessories?
I find lots of both! It just depends on the day.
What are a few of your favorite places to buy vintage?
Northern California, the smaller cities around San Francisco have amazing stuff!
I see that you have a blog!Tell us about it:
The Charley Girl is a lifestyle and personal style blog that features daily outfit posts, DIY craft projects, beauty and modern & vintage fashion. You can see more at thecharleygirl.blogspot.com or find me on tumblr, facebook, and twitter!

There is an unconscious heeling process within the mind which mends up in spite of our desperate determination never to forget.
