Follow up: Military promotion was today!

[Emer]

Hi ladies! Just wanted to pop in real quick and show you all what the final look was from my husband's military promotion today! (Original post: http://www.thefedoralounge.com/showthread.php?t=36912) Thank you all SO much for your advice! I never would have put together such a wonderful outfit without all of you. My family about died when they saw my seamed stockings and my grandfather hooted with approval (said it really took him back).

Great outfit!

And you must be as proud of hubby as he must be of you! I love the way the outfit looks very demure from the front, but has all that walkaway.

Terrific outfit

Last Veterans Day, one of our local veterans clubs had a USO/Hollywood Canteen dance. The guys wore uniforms and the gals wore WW II era outfits. None of us came close to capturing the look of the forties the way you do!

Congratulations to you and your Marine.
