^ those boots are perfection, alex, as is the junya jacket. I love how you've put each of the outfits together... ah, well done!

lea, that outfit is so cute and colourful! it's like an explosion of flowers with that bedspread
oh, and thank you travolta, francesca, meowmix, chanel, and strawberry

 

[softgrey]

[faust]

nice Alex! the first picture, the way it came out will give any mag editorial a run for its money.

[charlottesometimes]

I haven't got my digi cam working well so these pics aren't very good

Anyway, I hardly ever get a chance to wear some of my favourite vintage so I love to play dress-up

In the first pic I'm wearing my 40s beaded crepe dress, 40s bag and 40s style t-bar shoes. It's a pity the beading doesn't show up well.

In the second pic I'm in my mod 60s coat with faux fur collar and sleeve trims and wide patent belt. You can't see in the pic, but the dress that goes under is very mod and very very pink.

When im not sure about an outfit i put it on an do a catwalk... where my brother critics my outfit I wear heals with pjs

 

[utopia]

thanks alex, yes, let's keep this up. love the outfits charlotte, both of them!

okay here's a new one from me. my black linen oscar de la renta dress from the 1970's ($3 from the thrift store )...the underlayer, which you can't really see, is black tulle so the dress sort of 'rustles' when you walk...

 

[Elegance.Is.Refusal.]

^^^ that dress is so gorgeous


looking hot alexn

 

[shopsmuch]

oooh I love this thread!!! This reminds me of myself. I randomly buy so many outrageous poofy vintage prom-type dresses from the 50's because I love all the tulle and organza and details and colors. Of course I have nowhere to wear them, I just like to open my closet and look at them. I'll have to put them on and take pictures to post here later!!! I have so many other crazy items I haven't had use for yet but have just tried on together for fun when I get bored...I'll have to do that again...and take pictures...

 

[utopia]

oh it's a dress. and i haven't done any customisations other than cut the sleeves off. i'm wearing it with the bottom folded up.

funny as in amazing

 

[softgrey]

i don';t think funny and amazing mean the same thing in any universe...

but why don't you chop it then?...it's looks good that way..

supposedly my sister wants to wear it as a dress. pssh whoo knows.
i think it looks like something M.I.A. would wear attending the oscars or something. even though i know she has more class than that.
