What I Wore: 40’s Throwback

Leave a comment
what I wore: dress – vintage milanzo (thrifted), earrings – vintage from in retrospect, bow ring – forever21,  nails – bulletproof by pistol polish, heels – nine west
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!

Inspired by the 40s

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. jalouse 2011 octobre (dragged) 57jalouse 2011 octobre (dragged) 58jalouse 2011 octobre (dragged) 59jalouse 2011 octobre (dragged) 60jalouse 2011 octobre (dragged) 61jalouse 2011 octobre (dragged) 62jalouse 2011 octobre (dragged) 63

I have been looking for this photoshoot for forever! Sasha Pivovarova recreated her wedding for Vogue last June and I love the glamour of it. The close up of Sasha’s eyes peering over flowers is one of my favorites ever. I hope you enjoy as much as I did.

I recently discovered this editorial featuring Elisa Sednaoui. I love the 40’s feel and the dreamlike quality of the photos. Plus, I am loving Elisa Sednaoui. She is WhoWhatWear‘s current Girl of The Month. From WWW: “In addition to earning her acting chops in small French films, she also happens to be Karl Lagerfeld’s latest muse, is part of H&M’s current advertising campaign, and, most importantly, has a seriously enviable wardrobe filled with enough Chanel and Christian Louboutin to make any fashion lover jealous.” Plus…she’s stun.
