Spring is officially just a few weeks away here in the northern hemisphere, and that means it’s time to dust off those flirty spring dresses that were in the back of your closet! Do you feel like your wardrobe needs a little bit of refreshing this season? What better way to keep it stylish but also eco-friendly than with some vintage dresses that are perfect for spring?

Unlike when you buy new, vintage dresses have very little impact beyond the shipping footprint. Rather, you can say that they had their major impacts long ago. When you buy vintage, you’re saying no to fast fashion and investing in pieces that show that they can stand the test of time.
