Forgotten Skirt

late 60s/early 70s dress: flea market // shoes: via tk maxx // bag: american apparel // necklace: vintage // bracelet: hand-me-down from my mum // ring: saturday's flea market- found // earrings: from wiesbaden

i wore this dress yesterday on a big family party... the grandmother of my stepsister was kidding about my short dress ... 'oh, you forgot your skirt, darling'.

actually i wanted to wear it with black tights. then nobody would have cared about it's shortness but it was far too warm for opaque tights... and there was no time left to change this outfit into something else.

too long - too short - i don't care. i think, this dress is one of this year's best vintage bargains from a flea market. loooove it.

... me trying to feed a telephone-sheep with my cell phone. on what does a telephone sheep live?! ...words?! ...green electricity?!

this week my boyfriends father and cousine came the long way from brasil to see his sons and daughters-in-law. so, yesterday we went to frankfurt to pay some museums a visit ... at the museum für kommunikation i fell in love with a drove of telephone-sheep. all those cute sheeps are made of very old telephones and telephone cables ... in spite of the strange material they looked so woolenly real and alive ...

next time when i meet a drove of true-born sheep, i'll surely wonder about them saying 'baa' not 'ringring'.

i got my boyish blazer back from the dry cleaning service on friday. first i ran home to check out the lapels. yeah... my cute blazer is saved from being garbage!!! this nice ladie from the cleaning service got the lapels by steaming back to their right form. If this won't help forever the tailor around the corner will steam it again.

he told me that a steaming iron would help - but never iron on the lapel selvedges!!!

In Love ...

it's not just a gorgreous dress, the girl wearing it is a cutie, too!
last week i went through the ebay vintage section and came across the most beautiful and gorgeous summer dress i ever saw... this dress was on fixed price and it wasn't low priced at all. But i fell in love with it immediatly - i couldn't help it. Some long days and sleeples nights after i decided to buy it. hopefully i don't have to wait too oo oo oo ooo long on this dress... till then i dream of dots and flowers...
i really like to recommend this shop. you can find a lot of amazing vintage clothing and accessoires from the early 20s up to the 90s at mankii vintage. oh, they have a tiny own collection as well!

Lapel Help

saturday's experience, still bored about the cold ... warm lined biker jacket: vintage // dotted chiffon top: via tk maxx // long sleeve: h&m // belt: saalbau flea market, frankfurt // skirt: thrifted // tights: h&m // boots: flea market schlachthof, wiesbaden //bag: flea market, karolinenplatz, darmstadt // earrings: hottie, ny // fish necklace: flea market eberstadt ...

i met my friends at a cute little flea market on saturday. this bunch of flea market maniacs was quite lucky again although it was far too cold for a market outside.

this time i didn't pictured my new bargains ... i found some bags again, a gothic-like bandeau dress made from different kinds of lace ( i really don't know, whether i will wear it ... but it cost only 1€), two scarfs, another clock pendant and a boy's blazer. i felt so happy to found this blazer because it just fits perfectly... but at home i noticed that it's left lapel looks different than the other side does.

my grandma told me, that ironing wouldn't help ... she had been a talented tailor when she was younger, nevertheless she hadn't no other idea as well.

do you know how to bring the wrong lapel back to it's original shape? any idea?!

NEED YOUR HELP!
