I'm not usually a fan of Gucci, but this scarf is really sweet! And once my friend's mother gave me a Jean Patou Couture skirt + jacket walking suit for freeee because i was the only one she knew who could fit into it. I love it, the quality is amazing! I really don't know which decade it's from though. Recently found out that Lagerfeld worked for this couture house in the beginning of his carrier.

That flea market sounds amazing.
