Yes. Here they are. I don't wear them as everyday clothes but maybe to a nautical themed swing party or something like this. I don't dance lindy hop though. I should learn it.

Those pictures are phenomenal.
Thanks

FFF: that does look good - but there aren't that many times you can wear an outfit like that.
Thanks. Yes, but guilty pleasure doesn't have to mean you wear it all the time ^^

Haha OK. I didn't knew then. But it isn't a "real" uniform anyway so I don't have to follow regulations.

I once wanted to buy an original ww2 sailor uniform but since I never was in the Navy (or Army for that matter) I thought it would be inappropriate. I also don't fancy military reenactment anyway. Not my cup of tea. But Sailors have this "special something" that makes them interesting outside of the military context. I also find the nautical style for women very appealing.
