Pinspired Style: Stripes & Floral

Today I was inspired by the floral and stripes look I've been seeing a lot of on Pinterest!


Pinspiration:




My Look:
Shirt: Cotton On (clearance) $5.00
Vintage Skirt (hemmed): Goodwill $3.49
Belt: Forever 21 $7.00?
Flats: Goodwill $2.99
Bracelet: Forever 21 $7.00?
Total Outfit Cost: $25.48

 I got this skirt over the summer, and I almost forgot I even had it. Funny thing about it is that one day I was extremely curious as to how other bloggers knew that some of their stuff is vintage. So, I googled it and I found this article: 11 Ways to Know its Vintage by Labels and Tags. #1 is Union Labels. Well, the next day while at Goodwill with my mom, I spotted this skirt with this beautiful floral print. I tried it on and had to have it. Then I checked out the tag, and surely enough, a union label!

Does anyone have any tips/tricks on how to tell if something is vintage?
