So tonight i went to Salvo for the first time in nearly a year. I was on a mission for scarves, gloves and clutches. I found a good handful of scarves for .49 a piece. No gloves at all, not a single pair. And no clutches. But to make up for it, i found a fabulous coat, a blue floral dress, and two cardigans to upcyle.
This scarf was a neat find. I am pretty sure it is a real silk scarf and has a hand rolled hem. Its a bit threadbare in a few places but still worth the .49 price tag.
This is a nice heavy winter coat with a brown and grey herringbone pattern. It is sized a medium and is decidedly to large for me. I hope to start taking it in soon and making it a bit of a fit and flair. I am fairly certain it is a women's coat with a coral lining but when I put it on it just doesnt seem shaped for a woman. Regardless it has potential. Paid 8 bucks for it.
Yeah i know, terrible picture lol. But it is a neat dress that i nabbed for 6 bucks. The label says made in India and I am fairly sure that was where it was bought too. The design label is in Indian. I am hoping to raise up the hem, and maybe change up the neckline but I am not sure how yet. I am going to make it short sleeved for sure though. Going for a 40's look.
I think tomorrow i will start on the cardigans. They are both a bit big and boxy but nice colors that I wear a lot so I thought I would take them in.
