Pretty Polyester

I seem to have a thing for polyester clothes. I don't go looking for them but was sorting through my clothes and realised some of my favourite items were polyester. I opshop all my clothes, so have found some very pretty gems over time. Perhaps thats why I seem to like the polyester types..it always seems to come in the best patterns and colours! Here are my opshopped polyester favourites...

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Don't you think they just have the best colours and patterns! I must just remind myself to not wear them on a hot day..polyester is not good for sweatyness!
 
Do you go for a particular type of fabric or pattern with your clothes?
 
Thanks for reading,

  1. Oh Taz, your frocks and tops are gorgeous. I especially love the first top and ric-rac dress. I don't wear much vintage anymore as I think I'm getting a bit old for it, but I did when I was your age. I have just ordered a vintage Mexican dress (70's) which I still think I can get away with. It's taking forever to get here though...

  6. such a beautiful collection. at the moment i am making do with anything i have that fits over my baby bump. but i am starting to collect pics and ideas of clothes i love and would enjoy wearing, so eventually i want to cull/donate anything in my wardrobe that i feel isnt me. and then gradually buy/op-shop/upcycle some new clothing that i feel better represents me (and that i enjoy wearing!!) :)

  7. I've just found your lovely blog, & I am absolutely drooling over your clothing!!! I love each & every piece, but especially the first couple of tops AND that ric rac frock! That frock is AMAZING!!!!! I seem to have acquired a lot of polyester in the past couple of years. So not practical for a hot Queensland summer, but I love wearing it in winter.
