Random fact: do you see my (Emma's) dress? I recently thrifted it for $3! It had long, poof-y sleeves that I altered myself since I've been getting more and more into sewing this year. I just loved the length and bottom hem of this dress, but the sleeves made it feel really costume-y. But, easy and quick fix. Elsie and I grew up thrifting together (A LOT!) so I love it when I can still find new-to-me items that I can add to my wardrobe. I'm also crazy for Elsie's flea market purse—love those stitched florals!

I love thrifting a lot too (and the transformation projects can be a huge bonus)! Summer season just ended from where I am and it’s been raining. I miss the sun but not the humidity. Haha! I’m loving your sunglasses guys!

One of my favorite things about reading sister style is seeing all the different cool brands and places where you bought all your things from. I love to see vintage and flea market! In my opinion that’s what style’s all about; combining different things from different places in a way that is unique to you! You guys look great!
What a couple of cuties! Love both the dresses.

I loved the outfits!
Emma, your dress is gorgeous.
I’m also getting into sewing this year and I’m always fixing and modifying some clothes. It’s so good to give a new fresh air to a piece that used to be buried in the closet!
I also loved the color of Elsie’s dress. And the sunnies are SO COOL!

Gah Elsie I can’t handle that dress and purse combo! Too perfect!
I love Elsie’s pink dress! I also can’t believe that you thrifted Emma’s dress for only $3! I’ve been wanting to get more into thrifting and altering my own clothes and you’ve definitely inspired me!

I’m loving the thrifted dress. I wish I knew who it was buy. I adore it! I’m all about finding vintage pieces! Amazing find.
I’m with you on the humidity, it’s brutal right now! Still, I’ll take it over cold weather so I’m not complaining, but man does it make my hair look so flat and greasy. Boo!
