thrifting

I made this vest and trimmed vintage levi jacket set about ten years ago. My Dad who is the "Thrifting King" brought me two vintage minks he found and I made myself and my sister who lives in Austria a vest also. I love wearing my vest and it get compliments but I love it even more knowing its was thrifted by my Dad aka "Thrifting King" and recreated, designed and sewn by me.

I realize this is not a quality picture Of Audrey Hepburn but I was watching my favorite movie ever Breakfast at Tiffanys on sunday and I fell in love with this hat and I have a thrifted capelet that should be just enough. To know me is to know I love and wear hats...

I just saw this Prada fur vest for Winter 09 and and it makes me smile... I am looking for a old fur coat so I can make my version of this vest for this winter.
