The Shopping List No. 24: Time for the Set
Vintage sets have always been on my list of wants and needs, even more this season when I want to live in leisurely pants and shorts. I recently bought this vintage DVF set which is so comfortable and versatile since I can dress up or down, plus the tunic works as a mini dress for me. I’ve been on the lookout for more sets and found a great one thrifting yesterday (see the stories here).
Because I love them so much, I know you will too. I was able to find a variety of sets no matter the look – silk, linen, pants, shorts and more! Note that the vibe of these picks is more on the casual side – this fall I will focus on more dressy sets! Also, if you like reworking vintage pieces to make them modern, find a looser fitting top to create into a crop or tube top for a super fresh fit. I’ll take you along on a vintage rework post vacation so you can see the process.
If you’ve been eyeing the unique leisure set aesthetic, it’s time to buy!
