Vintage Courreges top with black classic Ferragamo slacks…

I just died when I saw the Courreges label, just died right there inside the thrift store – I mean killed over!  This label I rarely find inside a thrift store, it’s highly collectable.  This label is being ‘reborn’ and it comes at no better time.  The French fashion house, whose founder Andre Courreges claims to have invented the miniskirt, forms a triumvirate of dormant French brands-along with Thierry Mugler and Paco Rabanne-to be awoken this year…Designer…See More

It pays to remove safety pins on the label !!!  When I 1st spotted this black skirt among 100′s & 100′s of skirts, there was a dry cleaning safety pin right on the label which totally blocked the label.   So me being patient removed the dry cleaning tag to discover the Valentino label.  I just started to laugh inside the thrift store knowing…

I could find very little on Kulson the brand except for the fact that Lisa Kulson designed for Theory for just 1 year -2003- and then Theory helped her launch her own line, Kulson.  When I Googled Kulson a few items on ebay showed up and that was about it and believed me I tried Googling Kulson several different ways and came up empty handed which tells me this brand is extinct.  Well not really Kulson brand became Proof in 2007 and who knows…

Thanks fellow Texan!!!!! What are some of your favorite thrift stores here in Houston??? I've only lived here a couple of years and I'm still finding new boutiques and vintage shops all the time that I adore! Do you have any off of the top of your head that you can suggest I stop by? I am VERY inspired by your post from yesterday and I just had a potential new client contact me that I think would like more vintage and thrift store finds than my usual department store/boutique finds. Any help you give is GREATLY appreciated.
