Factory Girl!

So last night I watched Factory Girl (for the 751st time) I can never decide who I like more... Sienna or Sedgwick. I'm totally captivated by the story of Edie and how broken she is, it's truly heart-breaking. Though I love Sienna for her unique and modern twist on bohemian fashion.
(I totally want to copy Sienna's outfit above)




My ultimate conclusion is that they're both just fabulous! Who's your fave?

Give me a 5th!

Here's the deal: I've come up with four reasons to wear vintage... I need you guys to come up with a 5th for me! The person who comes up with the best reason will get 15% off their purchase from Wild Souls and be featured on my blog! The offer ends Aug. 15th, so get to blogging!

Reasons to wear vintage:

1) IT'S AFFORDABLE COUTURE: I remember my teenage years, we females like to have something no one else does. I often turned to vintage for this reason when I was younger.

2) IT'S GREEN: Check out this article on the waste that goes into the fashion industry... then google it-- you might find some more information: http://www.ethicalfashionforum.com/the-issues/energy-and-waste

3) IT'S BETTER FOR YOU: I worked for Forever 21 and had to quit because I was getting rashes all over me from the chemicals they used in the manufacturing process, and the fragrances they use to cover-up the smells from the factories: http://www.sixwise.com/newsletters/05/12/21/the-6-synthetic-fabrics-you-most-want-to-avoid-and-why.htm

4) IT’S WHAT INSPIRES MAINSTREAM FASHION ANYWAY: Check out Etsy and Ebay. I guarantee you’ll see what’s coming up in fashion over the next couple of seasons.

5) YOU TELL ME!
