I agree with you!

IT IS SO TRUE! ALl the cool stuff is gone. They call it “vintage” and ask the most ridiculous prices for it. When they paid pennies. Shame.

Oh, CUTE, you look great! I’m afraid you may be right about vintage clothes, it’s slim pickings these days at opshops… I always go straight to the fabric bins too!
