I GOT A NEW OLD DRESS TODAY

Do you know why I have a label called "The lazy thrifter gets lucky"?
That's because I seldom have to put any effort in to doing great finds, as they are mostly handed over to me (well that plus I get lucky in the internet :)


Today my mom came to help me clean out a closet in the flat still filled with my grandfather's books (plenty enough to fill a small town library. Well, at least the WWII section...) and brought along a mint condition day dress that was originally my grandmother's but which she didn't wear and which my mom didn't fit in to and now gave up on after twenty ears of waiting. A button down dress in thin soft cotton that worked very well on a hot day like today.

Keep up the good work fate!

NEIL


We drove home from the festival we performed at yesterday in the pale summer night listening to Neil Young. I think Neil Young is perfect for whatever road you are driving on, but especially the on that leads home, in the middle of the night.

Neil Young is one of those artists I find it odd to hear somebody say they don't like. Like Johnny Cash or say, Elvis. Or the Beatles. Like someone saying they don't like icecream.

ELOVENA


I turned my red patent heels into daisy-shoes for my Elovena number.

And now I'm packing them as we Itty-Bitties head over to a festival in the countryside to perform. Mini road trip, yey!
