Mod Cloth Vintage feature!

At the SF Vintage Expo a couple weekends ago, Mod Cloth approached my sister and I for some photos of our vintagey outfits!
The second photo of the 20's cloche girl is Melanie, my sis, and the third photo is me!(however odd my facial expression is...)

The San Francisco Vintage Expo

Last Saturday (9-18), I took my best friend, and my sister to the SF Vintage Expo! When we walked, we were in awe of all the phenomenal vintage pieces from every era. Here are a few examples of what was there. (Sorry about the low photo quality!)

Leaving for San francisco.

Hello, my foxes! I'm leaving for Sf tomorrow and I decided to find a little 60s sf inspiration. When I return, I plan to do a post about 1960s hippie fashion!
Have a great weekend!

The Birds- 1963

An old-time theater in my town called the Fremont, played Alfred Hitchcock's 1963, thriller "The Birds" last night as a part of their monthly classic movie series. My family and I went to see this amazing movie and made an event out of it. Surprisingly, I had NEVER seen the movie before last night! No doubt it was scary, beautiful, and incredibly well done all around. The suspense and mystery of it made the movie all the more gorgeous.
Here is a bit of 1963 inspiration from The Birds:

It doesn't matter if your sun shines in the evening

I've been searching for that perfect pair of classic pants, ones with slanted side pockets, high waist, pleating, ending at the ankle, and the right shade of dark blue. Thanks to my good friend's mom, I finally found them!
These type of "grandpa" pants seem to be popular amongst young fashion bloggers right now.

In the 1960s these pants were also in style!
