Today the challenge was to wear your favorite era. I have a lot of favorite eras such as Romantic (1830's-ish), Regency (1800-1820's-ish), and 1950's, on and on and on. I've already worn most of my favorite eras, but I have never worn a 1940's style outfit. I haven't really liked the 1940's until recently, because the silhouette looked so, well, blocky. But, there are a lot of cute aspects of women's fashion from that era, so I decided to give it a try, especially when I found a cute houndstooth pleated skirt at the thrift store, that just said "40's" to me.
Edwardian Blouse: Made by Yours truly, Me!
Purple Sweater: Nordstrom Rack
Partially pleated houndstooth skirt: Thrifted
Black bow: Uuumm, quickly made and pinned on this morning, by me.
Hair combs: A christmas gift from my sister Charlotte.
I don't know why I like this photo, my blouse looks so wrinkled in it. :P
Well, that's all for today.
P.S. I'm thinking of doing some fashion days in the coming months, such as Modest Monday,What'd you wear Wendesday, Fifties Friday, etc. What do you all think? Would some of you readers be willing to participate?
Blessings,
Brigid.
