What are you wearing today??

[Pink Dahlia]

Aw Pink, you look darling!! Perfect for the event, you must've turned a lot of heads, possibly a few broken necks!! I can't wait for the warmer weather, I've got some beautiful 20's outfits I'm just aching to wear. Oh, I just noticed, I have those shoes! Can't walk in em' though, they're far too high for me. Kudos to you for wearing them!!

Thanks! I only lasted from 7 AM - 12:30 PM in those shoes and me feet are sore today!

I wore this around Little Italy today

 

[Adele]

I wore this for a critique:

Accessories and such:

May I also just say:

lyburnum: I don't think I've ever commented to you, but truly, I love your style. Moreover, I agree with others on their comments regarding your classiness.

CharlesB: You look handsome in that suit - hope it isn't too bold of me to say. I do not intend to be as so.

 

[imoldfashioned]

Everybody looks wonderful, as usual!

Adele--your hair is perfect and I love the skirt and the watch!

Most impressed :eusa_clap

It takes a lot of courage and self conscience to pull off that look.

I agree with Jakob; however, the effect is incredible and well worth the effort. You look perfect.

Ooh, asymmetrical clothing is so cool, isn't it? Your hair is too, too perfect! I love it!


(Hmm... my poor little exclamation point button has been getting quite a work-out lately. You all dress too nicely.)

Thank you Jakob and as always thank you very much Bugsy. I would love to see your outfits as well Bugsy!

Great hair. Looks like the woman in your avatar! But why can't we see the face that goes with it?

My outfit for shopping today:

Marlowe, P: I always appreciate any comparisons with the lovely Audrey Hepburn She's become somewhat of a style icon to me - mostly because her physique was very similar to mine, so what suited her generally suits me.

Funny, I was thinking the exact same thing. (You gave me permission before, hope this is okay!)

Similarly, one of my style icons for the Golden Era is Jimmy Stewart, precisely because he is a lanky fellow like myself. Now, if I could just find a Golden Era suit...

 

[Vintage Betty]

Thank you Lady Day, Jovan, and GwenLake!

Adele your outfit is great, and your finger waves are incredible!! I'm so jealous!! My hair is too long, and I've got way too much of it to get a nice close to the head, tight finger wave. I love your hair color too!! I'm thinking of going red. Probably will happen this week since my stylist is going to Europe for a few weeks and I've gotta see her before she goes. Can't let anyone else touch my bangs!! She's actually coming over tomorrow for a photo shoot and bringing her shears to trim my bangs. Apparently she saw my latest photos, then called me to tell me I needed them trimmed!! That's the tough part about having short bangs, I have to trim them every week, and I only trust her with them for she's the only one who knows how to round them the way I like. So she's gonna be gone, then I'm going to Europe for 2 weeks only a few days after she gets back, so that means if I wanna go red I gotta do it this week. That way any adjustments I need can be done the day before I leave for my trip. Ugh!! Guys have it so easy!!
But anyway, I really did mean to just leave you the compliments, not go on a hair stylist tangent!! Gosh, I guess I am stressed!!
Well done though, I am envious. I'm going to show her your pic tomorrow and see if she thinks that color will be a good shade for me. I have pale skin and green eyes, so she thinks red will be good, but it's all about getting the right tone.
OK, tangent done!! Sorry! Those of you who know me shouldn't be at all surprised by this You know you all love it!!! lol!!

Today: Tight dark jeans, my favorite pair with funky jazzy back pockets. They're tucked into my favorite pair of knee high black leather boots with about a 4 inch heel, a tight black cardigan with black bead buttons up the front and halfway up the sleeves, a black ribbon for a belt tied in a bow at my side. Hair is down with a black orchid tucked behind one ear, and of course my favorite shade of dark pink lipstick with a topcoat of sheer lip gloss.
