This outfit here has funny little story behind it... 

I wore this outfit when we went to New Orleans for me to try on wedding gowns. This was actually after I had already ordered my Chinese dress. So... I had crowd of like 10 people with me. Just so they all could get to experience the trying on gowns with me. Well I tried on some dresses, but none of them compared to the one I had already ordered. Then we showed the woman that was helping me that dress (not telling her I had ordered it already), and she found it in the store! So I had the whole "I said yes to the dress" moment with everyone and the woman says that she's going to go get the seamstress to get fitted. Ya'll I couldn't take it. I couldn't lie. My family wanted me to tell her that we were going to leave and get lunch and come back. I just couldn't do it! So I told her "Actuallyyy... I ordered this dress already for $300...." You should have seen her face. OMG. "Ugh from China?! Good luck with that." Yeahhhhh she was NOT happy with me. And my family was embarassed... oppsie! But I didn't lie!

When I saw this outfit on Clare's blog, I immediately loved it! I knew I had all of these pieces , but I never would've thought to put them together. I thought this outfit was an unexpected look, and you definitely wouldn't see anyone else on the street wearing something even similar to it.

And since I can't play favorites, here is my poodle, Dutchess! When my mom was dying my hair on Sunday, she gave her a little too. I've been calling her my pumpkin head poodle! haha

 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?
