There have been certain items I have been searching for lately. It always seems when there is a specific jacket or design of a hat you want you absolutely cannot find it anywhere. I recently purchased a dress on etsy.com and it is so adorable!
But now I don't know what shoes to wear with it and so I'm on a search for shoes that will be totally appropriate. Or boots? I recently bought two adorable pairs of pumps from macy's. One is a Carlos Santana Brand and the other Alfani but in Leopard. I think if the pumps from Alfani weren't leopard I could wear them say in the red. All I can say is I love love this dress! Simple yet pretty.

The one thing I have wanted that I've been unable to find....a Motorcycle jacket. I see them but I guess you have to really feel that particular jacket looks good! Some are too bulky or since I'm petite they just don't fit right. Guess if I was a little taller finding clothes might be easier? No wonder clothes always look good on models- they are like hangers for clothes most of the time. They seem like they would be beautiful on everyone but in reality they could look absolutely hideous. At almost 30 I feel like I finally know when I look at something what will look pretty. I think of all the crazy items I've bought. I remember buying some flare pants at Earth Traders or a store like Earth Traders ( I wonder if that place is still around)...some hippie pants that well let's face it - I have a ghetto booty as the hubby would say. They just weren't flattering. Anyway I'm rambling as usual. So I found a Motorcycle Jacket at Forever 21! So far it's the only one I can find that I like the best! But if anyone happens to find a real leather motorcycle jacket let me know where they all are so I can scope them out!
The next item I absolutely have not been able to find anywhere is a hat like the one Audrey Hepburn wears in Sabrina. I have no idea where to find one like it. Its absolutely adorable! Maybe because Audrey is wearing it. Everything she wore was so classy. I watch her movies and I'm just fascinated by her. I have heard some people say they don't know what was so great about her. I think she was graceful and beautiful without even having to try. She had the most amazing smile.
This last item is one from etsy. It reminds me of how I used to wear my dresses my senior year in high school with a few more embellishments. Quite adorable! And lovely color!
Hopefully after christmas I will be able to have a list and I'm going to the vintage stores in NYC and Brooklyn... Just a couple more weeks!
