Saratoga Springs

June 11, 2014,
by Celina[zilla_likes]

Recently I took a trip to see my friend Rebecca Isenhart at her home near Albany, NY. The beautiful natural surroundings, adorable shops, and slower pace were a refreshing change from the daily grind here in Boston. On a day trip we went up to Saratoga Springs and, of course, I had to plan an outfit that would match the level of class oozing from every corner of the adorable town.

This dress is vintage Armani, and I found it at Goodwill. Can you believe it? With a few quick alterations it was good as new, and fit perfectly into the swanky Saratoga background.
