Vive La France; Or A Good Old-Fashioned Outfit Post

When my friend and fellow etsy vintage seller Rhiannon, of Garb Oh Vintage, offered up an adorable sailor-themed deadstock French 1930s wrap-front dress for sale recently, I knew I had to make it mine. Thankfully, not only was it my size, but it matched perfectly with my favourite 30s red straw hat from The Swinging Seamstress.  Needless to say, I am a happy camper. Oh, and it's got, Puffed Sleeves, Marilla! :D. Apologies for some wrinkle dinkles...I need to re-iron it. In the mean-time, I wear it around the house while listing items in my shop ;).

Red Hot Hat from the Swingin' Seamstress

Speaking of chapeaux....I am over the moon in love with this little 30s red straw hat I got recently from SwingingSeamstress on etsy (yes, that's the same gal who runs Vecona Vintage, so you can get some great Vecona prototypes through her etsy shop!).  Feels a bit like it fell from this 1934 fashion illustration I found!
