Oh my, this is a breathtakingly beautiful collection and how wonderfully you wear these gorgeous pieces. Incredible. Amazing, everything. I just can't pick a favorite.
Hello!
I've just stumbled upon your blog and I must say it is absolutely outstanding! All of these outfits are absolutely gorgeous, but I do favour the outfit in the first image! I've just followed you via Google Friend Connect
Sincerely,
Paris of The Vintage Look
I love seeing your wonderful wardrobe. It always makes me wish that I could wear the thirties with the same flair!
Gloriously stunning all year around!
Always so elegant! I love all of these outfits and am also very envious of the stunning scenery that surrounds you. So wonderful.
As I was scrolling through the snaps I kept thinking to myself, "Oh, that one is my favorite.", "no THAT one is my favorite." , "no, that one is my FAVORITE", and so on and so forth until the end. I still can't pick which one is my actual favorite because I love them all!
Thanks doll,
The Glamorous Housewife
Seriously? I could look at your outfits ALL day!! I am still in lust with your green sandals. I cannot wait for more in 2012! :)
You have the most stunning collection of clothing!!! Every outfit is just so perfect :)
Again, thank you SO much for your kind words!!! Given my addiction to vintage, you can ensure I'll be posting more outfit pics this year!
LandGirl: y'know those green beauties are from Re-mix (I got them during a sale over at Trash Diva). :)
Happy New Year! You have one stunning wardrobe, I love the gingham jumpsuit just gorgeous :)
Every last outfit is vintage sartorial perfection. Your style and vast knowledge about the 30s is a continual source of inspiration, dear gal.
Thank you very much for making us a part of your very well dressed, always interesting world.
♥ Jessica
The beach pajamas have got to be my favorite ;) Happy New Year!
You have the most amazing collection of 30s clothes ever, I swear 30s is harder to find than some other eras (maybe depression wrecked clothes?!) Or maybe it's because you own them all! haha
A beautiful retrospective.
