However, last weekend, I had a great day passing through some garage sales and thrifting downtown with my good friend Andrea. I managed to buy two leather vintage purses, a belt, a hat pin and three dresses! We went to an amazing vintage stores in Chicago named Seek. I suggest if anyone is in the Chicagoland area, they go here! I wanted to buy so much but, limited myself to the three dresses and the belt.

cute finds! I love those bags & hat pin!
what beautiful outfits!
I hear you about being 25 in the midwest and how "you should automatically be married by then"--thank god I do not live there anymore because at this point I'd be such a spinster.
But on to teh good stuff--you made out like a bandit with those two bags you got...SCORE! I love the peach dress in the first photos, and the belt in the second photos. Hope your swelling goes down and your gums heal up just fine (I once had my wisdom teeth cut out when I was 16 and I've got some nightmare stories about that...I'll spare you until you're all healed, I wouldn't want to scare you)
Love your pink dress
Somehow I stumbled across your adorable blog (so cute!) and wanted to say hi...I am also married to an architect and we live with our kitty (Mabel).
Nice to "meet you"

Adorable dress! You really lucked out with those two bags.
cool seagull hat pin! nice finds :)
That peach dress is perfection!
I really love your thrift finds. And I love the title and header image of your blog. The name for owl in French is so cute.
How funny, I live down the street from Seek (there's also a store named Very Best Vintage also on Chicago Ave). Let me know the next time you come to the city to vintage shop!
