    Vintage girls in vintage boy clothes?

    ... Oh God. In highschool, I used to be completely & utterly obsessed with early-century men's clothing-- a phase that lasted about two years. I literally did not wear a skirt or dress for a year or so-- absolutely bizzare, as I only own two pairs of pants now (sailor-pants & a Hepburnish...
