This Theory Dress (another winner from Buffalo Exchange) retailed for at least $200, once upon a time. I got it for $32.50, NBD.
The cut’s seriously classy, but the coverage? Hellooooo lingerie. Opaque tights did nada to temper the sheer-factor: If this dress was ever going to see the light of day, it needed a slip. Unintended purchases necessary for the wearing of a particular item bug the shit out of me, but that’s neither here nor there.
Shortly after finding myself in this pickle, I visited No Relation Vintage to see if its reputation as a reasonably-priced option for clothes from another time was legit. (Affirmative – it actually doesn’t pull the same crap as other stores of its ilk, i.e. overcharge for old stuff). In addition to about nine thousand pilled t-shirts, I was gleeful to find a solid selection of slips, two of which I snagged for eight bucks each.
When paired with the dress, both slips provided excellent coverage, and that’s not all. I figured out how to wear them as non-undergarments too! (It’s not even that slutty. I mean, for me.) Stay tuned for pics.
