I put together an article for Project Wedding on how to shop for a vintage wedding dress. We have this great vintage shop in Portland called Xtabay Vintage. The prices are shockingly low and the clothing is fabulous! I am totally obsessed with Chanel style dress bottom left. Totally Audrey Hepburn, don't you think?
Thanks to Amber Johnstun for modeling and assisting and to Xtabay Vintage for hosting. Full article here. More photos on my Flickr.
Oh wow! This must have been so much fun. The pictures are amazing.
that dress is so sweet. love.

You always put together such creative projects!! I’m posting this on Kirtsy. Great job! 🙂
Sure wish we had a store like this in our town. I love the style of the short dresses!
PS- Did you buy anything? 🙂
HA! No, but I am sure I will. You would love this shop, Martha!
oh my gosh. the one with the black trim is amazing.
What a great shop I would be in there every day if I lived close by, thanks for the lovely photoes.
What a great shop. I wonder if we have anything like that on the east coast. I might need a court house wedding dress sometime this year…
oh those dresses- I’m in love!
I’m considering a vintage wedding dress but dang, I’m a million miles away from Portland. Xtabay Vintage stocks really nice dresses, so much character.
I love the short shift dress Amber tried on. That shop looks and sounds incredible.
