Suede. The word alone has so many connotations. Smooth, sumptuous, luxurious…and cheap?
Next to designer pieces, high quality clothes in luxury materials are kind of the holy grail of thrifting. And the better the bargain the more victorious you’ll feel.
Both of us have managed to find beautiful suede coats in our recent thrifting and vintage shopping. Neither of us were looking for one at the time, but when we found them, both of us knew we couldn’t pass them up.
We think both of these fit in nicely with all the 70s revival suede coats we’ve been seeing in street style features lately. Very groovy.
