I got a really good pull when I went thrifting the other day, including this dress which was $2.50. I love the shape & femininity of the silhouette; especially paired with my 40s-ish nine west platforms. Also, if you are local (NWA), you really must check out In Retrospect on Township. It’s a vintage/kitsch mall with amazing jewelry, furniture and all sorts of other things – great prices too!
I am currently inspired by the feminine silhouettes of the 1940s, the soft coifs, the bold lips, the high waist…re-imagined into a more modern replication.
I love the 1940s glamour of this editorial. I’m a big fan of Alexander Skarsgård and an even bigger fan of Lara Stone. It’s almost hard to see Frida when she’s in the same frame.
Spellbound – Photographer Peter Lindbergh and fashion editor Grace Coddington for Vogue US’ July issue. “Featuring a love triangle with Lara Stone, Frida Gustavsson and actor Alexander Skarsgård–leading lady Lara plays femme fatale to Skarsgård’s quiet, cosmopolitan reserve. While Frida Gustavsson uses her girlish charm as the other woman. Grace Coddington’s glamorous picks from labels such as Marc Jacobs, Balenciaga and Miu Miu conjure dangerous characters in a world of 1940s film noir elegance.” via TFS
