Hello everyone!
My name is Kat, I am so thrilled to start blogging with my very dear friend Jenn. So here is just a little bit about me. I love vintage clothing, it has been something that has been indwelt into my very being since I was a girl. You will also rarely see me without coffee in my hand. Caffeine must run through my veins at all times or else it could lead to cataclysmic disasters.
I am convinced that there is no better sensation then finding a little sixties dress in just your size. For me Earl Grey is more than just scheming about a dream shop and opening an Etsy store, it’s what I love to do. I normally can’t go more than two days without a visit to a thrift store looking for a unique find.

Wearing vintage clothing allows me to express my personality, to mix a little old with the new. I would say that one of my favorite things to collect is old fashioned salt and pepper shakers. I will have to take some pictures soon of my collection, I stumbled upon these beauties today and I just love them.
My grandma used to take me thrifting and she would call it “la guage.” It has a nice French ring to it doesn’t it? I adopted the phrase throughout my junior high and high school years “thrifting” was frowned upon by my peers, others made me feel ashamed of my clothes and my hobby.

But now I am so comfortable in my skin regardless of what I’m wearing. And it’s always fun to look back at the people who made fun of your clothes when styles roll right back around and you find them wearing the same exact thing. Well I’m of to go shopping at la guage, happy thrifting my friends!
