something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue

I love it when you find a garment that is so versatile that you could wear it everyday and never wear it the same way twice!

I found these coveralls on a whim, perfectly distressed with no need for alterations.  Sometimes a find takes a little of vision to make it right, but these had a mind all their own.

Whether it was a fashion show, alpaca farm or blog shoot, worn with sneakers, a designer bag or stacked jewels, they just work!  I just can't get enough. xx
