VPOD: Vintage 1970s Bill Gibb Kimono Knit Jacket


vintage 1970s Bill Gibb Kimono Knit Jacket 2

If you’ve been experiencing the intense heat wave creating record high temperatures this summer, probably the last thing you want to look at is anything made of heavy knit, wool, or tweed.

But global warming is not only making our hot days hotter. Oh no, no, no. While winters are becoming milder and shorter on average, we can also expect the effects of global warming to produce winter storms that will be heavier and more intense than in years gone by.

So even as you strip down to your camisole and fan yourself to stay cool this summer, it’s perfectly okay to turn your fashion thinking cap to what you’ll be wearing to stay warm come this fall and winter.

And one perfect addition to any fall wardrobe is today’s VPOD.

This knit wool kimono jacket from Bill Gibb’s 1975 Moon and Buddha collection will fit almost any size fashionista, and features a print of little buddhas and colorful moons designed by internationally renowned textile artist Kaffe Fasset.

It’s a ultra-cozy fall find for a vintage fashionista!

Available at Swank Vintage.

VPOD: Vintage 1980s Courreges Mod Cotton Jacket


vintage 1980s courreges mod cotton jacket

How wonderful yellow is. It stands for the sun. – Vincent Van Gogh

Ask someone the first thing they think of when they see yellow, and most likely they’ll agree with Van Gogh and say the sun. But yellow is also associated with hope (think yellow ribbons and yellow LiveStrong bracelets). And since it’s the most visible color, it also grabs attention. This explains why so many taxi cabs, school buses, traffic signs and advertisements feature it!

In fashion, we know yellow mixes well with blues and grays. And of course, one sure-fire way to douse its flame a bit is to mix it with white. Today’s VPOD does that beautifully. This vintage 1980s cotton jacket by Courreges features a yellow-and-white abstract design that is sure to inject a little sunshine into any spring wardrobe.

It’s a yummy yellow find for a vintage fashionista!

Available from Zuburbia and also available on TheFind.com.
