While we were roaming around the Orlando area we came across another Adjectives Market (read about the other we visited here). We can honestly say that we are pleasantly surprised by the fact that the Adjectives Market we went to in this post was just as impressive as the previous market, with some very unique sellers. The Adjectives Markets are antique malls, where there are multiple different booths and each booth has it's own owner. This means that you will most likely not see the same thing in every booth and there will be variety which was very true in this market. Theres something in here for every one,its the kind of place you CANT just dedicate one day too.(its like Disney world you need more than one day to experience all the magic). It doesn't matter what you're searching for,once you step inside you'll realize it'll be there and so much more. The store itself is very aesthetically pleasing,every area is well lit and beautifully organized,not an inch of space gets wasted.(kind of like Ariel's secret treasure trove,thingamabobs anyone?). Due to the lovely layout we loved looking around it and taking photos of all the adorable items we could find! We hope you enjoy this look into a little slice of vintage heaven!

Hint of magic
One thing Kirsten is bad at is buying tops, she owns about 3 and the one she wears the most is her white peasant top (about 45% of the time). So we decided enough is enough for Kirsten's sake & yours we needed to find a solution to this problem. So here it is ladies & gentleman, a little bit of magic in your everyday life !(we won't tell the ministry of magic if you don't!). Its so simple yet incredibly wardrobe changing, its simply a dress layered under a skirt to make it appear like a blouse. You can use any dress, Kirsten chose a wiggle dress while Paola sported a swing dress under her swing skirt! This could be a fun way to wear a dress whose neckline you adore but don't wear to often or maybe it's a print you think would go well with a skirt if it were only top (well knows your chance to make it happen). Try that out! Play around with it! Maybe go wild, we won't judge (unless you wear denim on denim then we might judge... Just a little!). You'll be surprised to find what combinations work and how versatile one dress can become once you give it a whirl.Say goodbye to that one way to wear a dress,when we're through with you ,you'll be wearing dresses every which way under the sun !Keep on reading to see how we used a bit of magic to create outfits with these dresses for our vintage store exploration.

We hope you enjoyed reading this installment of Retro Orlando,we are trying to make it a more regular occurrence.(try being the key word,we just have so many ideas sometimes we forget to do them all haha). We're getting a bit better at making them regular with summer break and all. We also hope you enjoyed that little bit of magic thrown in there. We're always looking for ways to extend our wardrobe without pushing the budget & this is one of our favorite ways to do that. Trust us its so easy & simple to do,you'll be wondering why you never thought of it too. So go out there explore & try your hand at some magic you'll be amazed at the combinations you can come up with once you start.(It gets addicting and soon you begin making collages of outfits..or maybe thats just us?).If you've got an area you'd like us to visit or any comments, questions or concerns feel free to comment below and as always we'll reply as soon as we can !
