I snapped up this amazing red velvet YSL vest at the Decades Two Sample Sale this past weekend. Decades Two, an upscale consignment store in LA, decided to fly to NY for a weekend-only grand sale in Soho. My electric blue YSL vest is one of my most prized sartorial possessions, so I thought I'd add another YSL vest to my collection.

hi thumbelina.
what a scoured on the red vest.
that's one of the advantages living in NY,
you can get a deal of any high end clothes.
now, i feel i wanted to move to NY.huh!
Ooh, what a lovely score. And those Miu Miu shoes! I am green with envy! :)
Oh my God....soooo beautiful!
Awesome! I can't wait to see you style this piece!
And yes, the blue YSL is hard to forget. It was my inspiration for my bridesmaid post and how we "met"!
That vest is an amazing rare find : ) Lucky you!
OMG!!! Thumbelina!!!
You picked one of the hard to find SS2002 "jungle" runway pieces from YSL! Carmen Kass wore it on the runway...
Do you remember all the leopard prints and lace-up details?
CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR FAAAAAAB FIND!!
The red color and all the details are amazing!!!
Enjoy your day!
Oh my--that's stunning! I'd frame it, never wear it! (Silly me.)
Oh those ruby slippers are so beautiful! I never wear red but I have this thing about red shoes (-h had a pair of classic heels I so longed to buy).
Being not a red person, that vest is so not me, but it doesn't stop me from admiring its beauty, and the wonderful detailing, and I'm sure you look smashing in it.

Thanks for commenting on my blog, you have such an incredible eye for all things beautiful. The velvet vest look so lush and decadent!
And I think your idea of pairing the Kane shirt with a leather pencil skirt sounds promising...too bad I don't own one, haha.
Beautiful vest, what a find! So meant to go to that sample sale. Hopefully they were successful and will open a full time shop here!
Can't wait to see you in this look.
great find on the vest. it is gorgeous!

Aaaaaah, is it from 2002 or 2003.... I'm not sure. The vest is very lovely!! I love DecadesTwo, they're sometimes a little bit expensive (for us online shoppers) but you can find amazing treasures there!
Two thumbs up for Mademoiselle Thumbelina!!
