I'm Sari and I'm Haley and this is Seamwork Radio.

Welcome back to Seamwork Radio where we share practical ideas for building a creative process

so you can sew with intention and joy. And today we're talking about how to find inspiration in vintage clothing and translate it

to a modern wardrobe.

So we're going to cover where to look for vintage inspiration, a few of our favorite sources,

and how to use that inspiration and not just collect it.

So what is your favorite vintage find in the last couple years,

Haley? Man, I think in the last couple years, I've definitely collected more like

home good vintage than clothing vintage. But the two clothing items that come to mind are

I bought this secondhand.

It was probably early 80s or late 70s blazer that someone had indigo dyed, like overdid.

And it's really cute.

It's unlined.

It's made from cotton.

It's very wearable, kind of an everyday thing. And I like that

it has this kind of a DIY element to it. Every time I wear it, I get a lot of compliments.

And then I also have a silk scarf that I found for a dollar that has horses on it.

Oh, I love a horse scarf. It's great. I love it. I'm not like a horse girl or

anything, but the colors are really nice. So when I like tie it up like on my neck or in my hair,

you can't really tell that it's horses necessarily, but I know that there's horses on it.

So I'm a fan. What about you? What's your favorite vintage find recently? I think for me, the one that

comes to mind is this past winter, I found this faux fur coat on Etsy, and it was pretty inexpensive.
