Here's why I love vintage dresses: They are (for the most part) one of a kind, so if you're the type of person who worries about running into someone at a party or at the mall wearing the same Forever21 shirt as you, vintage is the way to go. Besides that, with how popular vintage / retro / nostalgic styles have been over the years, it's so easy to pick up a vintage piece that looks just like a brand new piece for sometimes a lot cheaper. But what you mostly get with a vintage dress that you don't get with something new picked up on Modcloth is a story. Someone loved this piece before you and took great care of it. I guess that appeals to me because I love stories and I never had anyone to hand down things to me. I often wonder where pieces came from, who loved them before I found them - is that weird? Maybe I'm just looking to add a romance to clothes that H&M can't.

the handbag or something (I don't know) isn't in suit with the dress just I think
