Spring has Sprung… flowers everywhere

Written by ogo on . Posted in Brighter than springtime

After a long and challenging winter, the temperature has finally risen to let you leave those bulky coats and jackets behind.  Spring truly is in the air with flowers blooming and women wearing colorful outfits and light, sheer textures.  How do you stand out from the crowd when there is so much merchandise out there, from high end to fast fashion?  Opt for a vintage one of a kind item to have a look that is truly you.  Which pretty floral dress from OgoVintage speaks to you?

Polka dots add whimsy to your look, day or night, summer or winter, bold or subtle.  It’s hard to take yourself too seriously when you’re wearing polka dots.  Repeatedly on trend, polka dot apparel is an excellent addition to your permanent wardrobe.  Here are some OgoVintage polka dot items, some available now on the etsy shop or ebay store, some available directly through the website (email Ogo to stake your claim)  and  some are past favorites, now in the possession of a lucky new owner.

Perhaps the silk chiffon has a faint metallic gold topstitch that adds movement and gloss to the dress.  The handpainted silk textile of another turns a dress into a work of art the closer you get.  The intricacy of a raffia hand crochet clearly appears at a distance and up close.
