Adding Vintage to Your Style

Along Queens Road East near our apartment in Hong Kong lies a strip of beautiful clothing boutiques.  Before I left for the holidays I spotted this beautiful vintage wrap in one of their windows.  A surprise from my husband, it soon became one of my favorite pieces in my closet!  Today I’m styling it for the first time on Wrinkled Chiffon for this week’s PLAY style with a peplum top and peplum skirt, which together look like one piece.  To fasten the wrap together I used my beautiful brooch (more on brooches below) purchased this past summer in Paris.  This gorgeous, vintage Cameo brooch has definitely become one of my favorite accessories in my jewelry box.  Last but not least, I was excited to style my new DIY pearl bobby pins.  Once I arrive back in Hong Kong, I look forward to posting more about some of Hong Kong’s beautiful boutiques…stay tuned!

    Just catching up on your posts after my week away. Those pearl pins look so pretty and you have reminded me that I have a similar cameo which my Mum gave me some time ago. Yours really adds interest to your outfit. Wishing you a very Happy New Year!
