Speaking of dresses... I've never been one of those girls who dream of getting married. Never. But last weekend I went to my favourite second hand shop, and there was a rack filled with old wedding dresses. I was mysteriously drawn to this really old, hand made dress from the 50's. It was so pretty with gorgeous details and it came with a little veil and a tiara covered with fabric flowers. I started thinking of the lady who once wore this on what might or might not have been the happiest day of her life and I just couldn't leave it behind. I felt really akward fondling it and sort of glanced at the price tag, and do you know what? 10 EUR! That's barely a liter of milk and a loaf of bread in Italy. That settled it. I marched over to the sales girl and got myself my first ever wedding dress. Andrea just shook is head and I could clearly see the disbelief in his eyes. Oh well. Going home I tried to explain that me buying this dress is nothing stranger than him collecting vintage bikes. More disbelief. Chi se ne frega un cazzo!
Once at home, I tried it on. Needless to say, it wasn't exactly super comfortable and in all honesty; it was waaay too small. I couldn't even zip it up in the back. This doesn't matter to me though. It's hanging in my little craft corner right now and every time I look at it, it makes me smile. Pin It
hahaha gjorde detsamma for ngra veckor sedan under var loppislordag. Fast istallet for brudklanning blev det en ursot sidenblus med parlemorknappar och gulrandig kofta till en nyfodd. Roberto hall pa att do och jag jag fick forklara bade en och tva ganger att jag inte vill ha barn nu men i framtiden och da kanske jag inte kan hitta dessa superdupersota sma klader...:D
ReplyDeleteåh, sånt brukar jag också kolla på! det finns ju så mycket fint liksom! vet inte hur det är i verona, men tyvärr är second hand här rätt dyrt. typ: polyesterklänning från h&m 150 spänn (reades från h&m ut för 10). om ni nån gång befinner er i pavia-trakten finns det dock en grym men liten loppis där jag gjort mycket av mina bästa fynd (se brudklänningen). mycket handstickade, helt fantastiska koftor och ibland sjukt fina klänningar för absolut inga pengar alls.
