Let the Fur Fly

As quintessential as the little black dress, every girl should have a fur coat in her closet!  And what better way to add fur to your wardrobe than to buy it second hand?

September Vogue and the Hot Fall Trends You Can Totally Score for Less

The long awaited September Issue is here! 




Every year, Vogue celebrates the arrival of fall fashion trends with 800 pages of intricate patterns, innovative textures, and striking silhouettes from top designers around the world.  While I love carefully turning each glossy page to be sure I don't miss anything, I can't exactly afford to spend hundreds of dollars on a sweater.  Luckily, most designers work from vintage inspiration, so although I can't get the real deal I can still get the look without emptying my wallet.  Here are some of the trends I'm definitely going to emulate by shopping vintage.


POLKA DOTS

Stella McCartney
Marc Jacobs

COUNTRY ROSES


Lanvin
PETER PAN COLLAR


Louis Vuitton




SHEER CHIFFON
Alberta Ferretti


SIXTIES MOD
Balenciaga


These are my top five fashion "do"s that I can't wait to see hit the streets come fall.  Pick up this month's Vogue for tons of ideas for your fall wardrobe and start your hunt on a high note by visiting us at Retrospect!

Inspiration From Our Buyer

The buying car broke down on Tuesday afternoon while I was on my way to one of my favorite Goodwill stores. As I was sitting on the highway for two hours waiting for the tow truck, it gave me some time to think about what I should be on the look out for on my next buying trip. I came up with a small list of items that I think every girl should own in their fall/winter wardrobe. Here are some of the items that popped into my head:



1. Fur Hats: Always a classic cool weather accessory.
2. Capes: Plaids, solids, hooded, fur trimmed; I'm in love with them all!
3. Equestrian: A neutral color riding coat or a pair of soft chocolate
leather gloves are a must for the fall.
4. Motorcycle Boots, Leather Jacket, and a Flannel Shirt:
Wear together or separate to give your outfit a bit of an edge.
