the beauty of used.

Oh, hello there!
I haven't posted in awhile, but I plan on changing that, starting now! (because vintage love is all around!).

***

I really have such a love for items that had a prior life and find myself surrounding myself with less "new" and more "used". It just makes me happy.

I thought I would share my newest obsession.
Well, I'm not really obsessed, but I sure do appreciate prior generations attention to detail and intentional strides towards keeping things classy.
Even pajamas!

I don't love wearing sweats or big t-shirts to bed (or ever), but I still want to be super comfortable without looking like a big frump. It's too easy to fall into the pit of frumpy despair!

So, I've been looking for (and finding) pretty pajamas, from yester-year! Mainly from the 1950's and 1960's. They're bright, lovely and soft. Pretty, comfortable, functional and CHEAP. I got both of these for less than $7.00! The second I put them on, Sean was like, "Those are awesome! Classy lady!"
AND...one of them even has crystals on it! Love!

Hit up your local thrift store, wash/wash/wash and enjoy!
