Instagram Outfits

Since I won't be home or around a computer for a few days (I'm SF bound!) here's some OOTDs from instagram (@cassidyblisscooper) that I've posted in the past few months.

Most of my clothes are vintage because I enjoy the hunt for something incredible that no one else has. I usually go to Iguana Vintage, American Vintage, and Melrose Flea Market.
When I want something more modern or new, I shop at the Westfield Topanga Mall, though prefer second hand from Goodwill or other thrift shops. I like to get good deals on what I wear, though every now and then a splurge for something super nice or a vintage item I've absolutely fallen for will be necessary.

Another reason vintage is fun is because not everything will fit you. How is something not fitting you fun? You have to get crafty with how you wear the items, and sometimes you'll have to walk away from something beautiful so you learn to really appreciate the items you take home. It's truly a hunt, so you have to love it. But that's why I love to resell vintage, because I enjoy the hunt, and like to provide beautiful items to other people via Etsy (currently nothing in my shop, but there will be again soon!) or at-home sales, since I want these pieces to be appreciated like they deserve.
