But what I really hate is visiting vintage shops where you have to dig through mounds and levels and shelves of crap piled upon more crap. It’s an endless struggle and takes the fun of the hunt. Here are the worst offenders I’ve come upon:

A couple of days ago, Helena Christensen’s mom (who looks a lot like her) helped me try on a pair of Alaia hot shorts in her vintage store. Needless to say, they didn’t fit me (they used to belong to Helena). But I was drawn to the store itself because I knew it was full of Helena’s castoffs and her mom helping me only sweetened the deal. Vintage is so wonderful because each piece has a story and when you know the story behind what you are wearing, it can give you a special allure of confidence. A lot of Treasury clients always ask if we know the story behind the pieces we sell, and most times we do because Cathy and I do all the buying for the store and can often trace it to its original source. This is a long way of saying THANK YOU  to you all because Treasury has officially been open a year and we are looking forward to spending many more helping you into those Alaia shorts or whatever and telling  you all about the pieces we’ve collected for you!

I really wanted to post this Kym Mazelle song, but there is no vid, so instead, check out Jody Wately’s intense intense egyptian goddess matador dominatrix crazy Frida eyebrows look.

Loved this easy, breezy, beautiful look from Saturday!
