3.1 by Phillip Lim dress, Acne cardigan, ASOS jacket, Vintage boots (similar here), Proenza Schouler bag, Karen Walker sunglasses Over the weekend I met up with Nina to do a little bit of vintage shopping in Newtown, as part of her buy only second-hand or vintage clothing for the month of May.

Karen Walker blazer, Zara jumper, Topshop jeans & boots, Proenza Schouler bag, YSL ring In stark contrast to the relaxing four-day “Easter” weekend, this weekend just past was full of activities.
