I noticed a lot of the "fashionable" stores here aimed at trendy young things are making items from such low quality fabrics - cheap and nasty stuff. More stuff to fill up landfills I fear - and also who knows what the conditions will be for the people who make it.<br /><br />Second hand is best :D<br /><br />PS - 90's isn't vintage yet is it?Treeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07319274204951528344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4868048249049410936.post-50380470494598320262011-10-12T07:30:27.486+01:002011-10-12T07:30:27.486+01:00Excellent Vix.
