What are you wearing today??

[Vintage Betty]

Thank you so much Vintage Betty. I'll have to search this weekend.

Believe it or not, I found this by accident. I could have never found it on purpose, so the stars are shining on you this week Ms. RetroBabydoll. Here ya go - pictures of a 1940's pearled faux snood.

Ugh, yes. Well the first one was on a day when I had my trial team try-out and I needed to look at least somewhat toned-down. The second one, however, was just thrown together in haste & I forgot. For that one I have no excuse. [huh]

Father Mathis?

I'm so bad with a camera. I shot a bunch of pic's last night after we finished our Chrismas window and store displays. Sadley, most didn't turn out. I'll have to try again.
Today is a take a breather and go to work casual day. The outfit:
- Christy's black felt Fedora
- Sanyo black Mico Twill car coat
- Black Cashmere turtleneck sweater
- Black 120's wool/cashmere blend trousers
- Allen Edmond black loafers w/silver bit (Heathwood)
After I took this picture I realized that I looked like the Priest from the movie "The Exrocist".

I love this dress Kitty--aren't those old ladies magazines the best? Any chance of some detail shots (especially of the bodice)?

Thank you everyone for your kind welcome! I was quite nervous to put up a picture as a first post!

For those who asked for a closer view of the bodice of my dress...

My word Kitty -

how talented are you! That is a gorgeous dress - I'm really really impressed!
My teenager really wants to start making her own clothes - she is already 5' 5 at age 12 and feels it would be a prudent move!

I have been known to hem trousers with a staple gun - so I'm not the greatest of inspirations - but I will be sure to show her the pictures of your dress!

Amazing!

Indeed they do. Come to the dark side.

 

[CharlestonBows]

Now, are those vintage? lol

 

[thunderw21]

Now, are those vintage? lol

No, why do you ask? Don't they go with the rest of the outfit? I was trying to mix patterns. Are they too bold?
