Oh Darhling, you always looks so wonderful and I'm so glad you take the time to share your style with us. I can't wait to see a picture of you in that blue dress, it's so beautiful.

Very nice and gently/tastefully 'striking' outfit, HPG, that really works well with your general persona. :eusa_clap :eusa_clap Good stuff!

I have been dressing vintagey for about 3 years I think? And my dad, who is in his mid sixties, told me the other day that I had inspired him to dress a bit more sharply and apparently went out and bought a few borsalino hats that will go well with his nice overcoats and a nice scarf! I am so thrilled!
Anyway, I wish I had pictures of his 'new' look to post here, to show how handsome he looks.

That top does marvelous things for your *assests*. Hair is fab. The glasses just perched and sniffter in your hand say, "Well, lets give this silly little fencing thing a go, shall we?" Plus two fencing ladies helping each other out.
Yes, female, hetero me thinks this picture needs a fire extinguisher nearby.

Here's little me at my Library job today. No glasses, though. Ralph Lauren silk shirt with ruffles and puff sleeves, rayon gabardine skirt I made from 1940's pattern, late 30's / early 40's mesh and leather peeptoe oxfords and modern stockings, because I don't want to ruin my vintage ones at work. Oh, and my favorite vintage watch so I can give people the 15 minute warning for computers!

Yep, I sure do *not* fit in in this town, but I like it that way![]()

I see it all the time, but usually in black. It's standard clubwear in Miami Beach.m_lamb99 said:Would anyone actually wear a blouse like this out in public?
