It’s no secret that I’m a vintage vixen, however
the pickings are pretty paltry now that retro is trending both as an
inspiration for new design as well as a tool for reworked design. I know girls
and guys who spend hours digging their way through the clothes racks of op-shops
and resale boutiques only to find that the gems are picked clean and only
tarnished tanks and tees remain.
Personally I love reworked vintage fashion and am
happy to share my recent finds. I’ve compiled this list of my TOP Reworked
Retro Sites of the moment for you to look at. You can click on all the links
