So, I have a love for vintage/50's fashion/makeup/everything. Other than the fact that women were treated in a subordinate way back then, I love everything else. My dream is to look like a 50's lady but I know that will never happen haha. I love that women back then always made sure they looked put together before walking out of the door. (By the way when I'm in university mode, I seldom do this, or even put makeup on haha!) I saw this quote by Coco Chanel and I think it pretty much sums up the way women carried themselves "back in the day":
"I don't understand how a woman can leave the house without fixing herself up a little - if only out of politeness. And then, maybe that's the day she has a date with destiny, and it's best to be as pretty as possible for destiny."
- Coco Chanel
Well here are some of my favorite photos I have in my vintage pictures folder, so I thought I'd share them with you!
Ava Gardner, probably my favorite pin up... I think she's just so stunning!
What do you guys think of vintage/retro fashion, pinups, style, etc?
xo, s.
