My financial situation may have changed, but my style hasn't. I don't think I'll ever tire of the bohemian style that transports me to far off beaches and fields of flowers. Good news for me, many pieces that inspire Free People Clothing can be found in thrift stores or vintage boutiques (For much less), it just means you have to look a little harder and don't always find something good. Recenlty, I purchased a beautiful 1960's long dress and vintage boots from a thrift store and I was just as happy with these purchases as my Free People finds, and they even have a history (and you're doing something good by reusing. Gotta love the three R's).
All of this doesn't mean I'll stop loving Free People. I'll even keep saving up to buy some of their pieces, because they will probably always be my favorite place for clothing. In fact, I'd go so far as to say that if I have a daughter many many years from now, I'll be buying her Free People clothing.
...And now for the pictures that inspired this little vintage clothing rant:
Peace, love, and harmony
