Beaded dress & Slip dress: Vintage.  Bag: Thrift (one day it’ll be a Chanel like the above so help me God).   Panama hat:  Hat shop in New Orleans (similar). Shades: NY street vendor (similar).  Shoes: Converse Zip high tops. 
Nothing new here – literally.  Just layering an old vintage slip dress under a vintage beaded dress. I like the idea of showing two dresses together in a slightly different way.  Read:  Recycling the recycled. 
These Zip Converse high tops which have pre-occupied me to no end: Folded em up. 1 hour later they’re folded down.  I like that they convert to normal classic high tops.

Here is a chance to show me your collage skills and get a bunch of your own Chucks.  Winner gets $500 worth in gift cards plus one year’s supply of your own Converse Chucks.  Yes – a year!

I am one of the judges alongside Converse & Lady Foot Locker so I’m checking out entries from today onward.  Contest ends July 24th.  I will announce the winner on July 31st!
