Vintage Lace Flares

These photos may not quite do them justice but the way that these wonderful pants found their way to me is a pretty unbelievable story: a year and a half ago I wandered into a vintage clothing store in Wellington and saw these black lace flared pants and thought 'wow those are pretty cool.' Then I walked out of the store and didn't think much of it. But a while later I decided that actually I really wanted some lace flares just like those ones I had seen. I spent a good year dreaming them up and trying to find the perfect pair but couldn't find what I wanted anywhere... Until about a month ago, when I was in Wellington again visiting friends, I coincidentally wandered into a familiar shop on Cuba Street and sure enough - there they were, the exact same pants, waiting for me!

I love this top aswell, it's made out of pure wool. It's quite bulky but it keeps me warm while still being breathable and looking funky - perfect for these inbetween seasons when the temperature is constantly changing. I actually found out that it was handmade by a woman in Nelson back in the 70's, her daughter messaged me as she recognised it in these photos.

My boots were given to me by my best friend Gemma. I was with her when she first found them in an opshop and was extremely jealous but eventually she got sick of them and said I could have them. Yay! Clothes swaps with friends are the best.

These photos were taken on my cellphone at the Grand Mercure resort in Monarco when I got back from my latest Wellington adventure in August.
