It feels like we haven't done an event post in forever (mostly because we always leave our camera-oopsies)!

We attended the Goodwill Fashion Show & Gala, held at the Embassy of Italy.

The scene: A packed house of Washington, DC movers and shakers, supporting a charitable organization while being thoroughly entertained in a gorgeous space. Embassy events are usually fabulous anyway. There was a Goodwill pop-up shop available throughout the night for patrons to shop as well as support the Goodwill organization. We shmoozed with the crowd while enjoying the open bar and mini-buffet table. It also just so happens that while watching the fashion show, we spotted one of our models/muses', Victoria! 

Aside from the torrential rain at the end of the night, we had a great time supporting a great cause (and besides, who doesn't love shopping at Goodwill!)!

If we had to write an ode to vintage...well let's just say we'd run out of space on this post. Mila and Fire (formerly known as Mila & Fire Vintage) started off with selling solely vintage, but even before our business, we were both TRUE LOVERS OF VINTAGE. From our vintage designer finds, to our favorite eclectic pieces in our closets, to being able to say (in our heads of course!) "no one else will have this", we cannot get enough of vintage clothing! Although we now started selling reconstructed and contemporary clothing, our first love will always be (you guessed it) VINTAGE!

So here's a gallery of pictures featuring vintage, vintage-inspired (in our heads, at least) clothing, just to remind you how awesome it is to have one-of-a-kind, make-you-stand-out, feels-too-damn-good-to-be-outfitted-in-exclusive-ish, vintage clothing. 

Enjoy & have a grand ol' weekend!
