sheer sequined embroidery & ankle chains



black tunic & ankle chain - vintage | blue tunic under - jcp | rope belt - thrifted | necklace - f21

My thrift and vintage finds can cure sicknesses, I swear. Found this sheer black tunic that's so grandma-like yet completely wearable on a day-to-day basis if styled right (belted). Sheers are definitely taking over my wardrobe at the moment. The sequined embroidery on this particular find though is actually incredibly beautiful and sparkles when the sun hits it properly.... Found a silver red gem-embellished chain lying around and decided to wear it as an ankle strap since it's too thin and winds around awkwardly when I try to wear it as a belt. My feeble attempt to get creative with accessories when I'm too lazy to stack on six rings.

I know what you mean about thrift and vintage finds curing sickness. It's so satisfying to dig and dig and finally discover treasure.

That tunic is so pretty. It reminds me of something royalty would wear!
