A Vintage Lee Denim Overall

by Elsa Termenon on February 12, 2011

As I mentioned yesterday I did a great vintage find at Buffalo Exchange and that dirt cheap too! Like Tuva Minna Linn guessed – it was a denim overall I was talking about! The gorgeous piece has that perfect blue color typical in the 1970′s, it fits me like a glove and has wide legs for a loose comfy fit. Do I even have to tell you that this will be my spring uniform? I am already making up so many outifts in my head… Before the summer comes (and it gets too hot to wear it)) I wanna pair it up with everything from a black simple tank top and converse sneakers, a fancy silk shirt with a huge bow and high heels as well as with a bikini and sandals.

I decided it was time to give you all a little peak of our living room of our new house! I love the floors and the ceiling heights and the windows that gives so much light. The Chesterfield sofa is a vintage find that we bought from an antique store in Maryland. I love it so much, but it has an unbearable smell of tobacco smoke so it’s being returned soon. Luckily we’ve found a very similar one that is to be delivered in just a few weeks! Our place is really starting to come together and I’m looking forward to share more of it soon!

I’m wearing a Vintage Lee Denim Overall from Buffalo Exchange (Philadelphia), a vintage cashmere t shirt from Beacon’s Closet (Williamsburg), Shoes from Jefferey Campbell and vintage bangle.

    Wow, those are fantastic! I’m a huge fan of overalls and I was lucky enough to find two pairs of those same color vintage Lee’s in my size a few years ago. I doubt I pull them off anywhere near as well as you do, but I love ‘em just the same.

    you are looking great, the overall fits perfect, realy stunning !
    Why wait till Spring … wear them now, combine them with boots … but also the combination with a TankTop or Bikini would be well worth a shooting ;-)

    Stunning. You look absolutely stunning, and I thinks the overall has very little to do with it. Great buy, though! Every now and then we have to wear overalls (not this kind, however) for the uni, so I don’t usually find them very glamorous. Yours is very funky, love it<3

    Thank you so much! I agree they’re not very glamorous, but that’s the charm I guess!

    hej, overalls are my favorite, just the very best clothing item ever invented no matter who you are ! and they can be comfortable and stylish, being a Dane, living in Norway, and now in San Francisco, wearing overalls on campus and cafés, håber flere vil følge os med overalls i Skandinavien!
