You Wear It Well

Amanda Kain, vintage expert and designer behind break-out T-shirt line Kain Label, tips us off to what she's thrifting for right now.

Spandex Dresses
I'm on the hunt for vintage spandex mini dresses that have a punk edge to them: fishnet detailing, cutouts, or studs. Pulling off the look is all about attitude. Carry a snakeskin clutch, wear simple makeup, and you're ready for the gallery opening or a dive bar.

Curious Jewelry
Tiger and snake rings, because they're funky without being garish. Girly and delicate mini perfume bottle and magnifying glass necklaces. And statement-making punk pieces, a little bit of silver studding and leather goes a long way.

Elaborate Embroidery
Beautiful, colorful embroidery is always a conversation piece. When shopping for tops and dresses, I check the work carefully as there can be a lot of wear and tear. I'm always excited when I find something that's been well-preserved.
