In The Fashionista's Closet: Everything Old Is New Again!

 
 What better way to celebrate the beginning of a new year than by wearing vintage? 

I have had this dress (thrifted and gifted by my ace, Reiko) for some months now but haven't showcased it on the blog until now. I know there's a pic of it in my header but I never posted those pics and now I have my secret weapon to wear with it: my CRINOLINE!

 
Crinoline: Thrifted

 bag: rummage sale
earrings: Forever 21
shoes: BCBG


I went to church to bring in the New Year and feel strengthened in my resolve that good things, no GREAT things are in store for 2011!

(I like this picture. If you can tell me how to edit my image only and use another background I would be grateful...)
"Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new." 2 Corinthians 5:17
Happy New Year!

Absolutely gorgeous! I think I'm going to have to have you ladies start thrift shopping for me...I can't find these type of finds in my area!
