Elegance and vintage
Agreed, ShoreRoadLady! It's quite fun to look glamourous and elegant, but many women did not or could not. It's kind of inspiring all on it's own, actually, to look through old snapshots at antique stores and on ebay and see what women of different stations of life wore. And just like today...- Lauren

I was going back and forth whether it was ballet shoes or espadrilles! Thanks so much for your input! You wouldn't happen to know where to get ones like that now, would you? Without a heel? I've been looking off and on for a pair and haven't found any yet!- Lauren

Ok, I just went back and re-read! Haha! :) Kudos to you for drafting off the top you had! I love the idea of making a band that ties! I've made crop tops that like to... travel north... so that would keep them in place. Great idea!- Lauren

The ones that got away
I had visions of wearing this on our trip this summer. :( I kept trying to outbid the high bidder and ran out of time. I even had a navy cloche that would have matched perfectly.- Lauren

Sewing Lessons & FAQ
I've found some at estate sales before, or in vintage belt kits. Maybe do an ebay or etsy search? If you want to cheat you can use a strip of heavy twill, if your fabric is lighter, and hand sew along the back to close or use fusible interfacing. I've done both, but the fusible has a tenancy...- Lauren

Sweater Prototypes
Indy Magnoli, I'm sure this was state before, but are the sweaters made to order? If so, I'll be saving for one, cause they'll pass as collegiate womens styles, too, even though they're not specifically made for women :)
