The 1940s Meet the 1950s
It was the last day of class at the university where I teach art classes, and is becoming a tradition to have a costume party for our final critique. My student Flora and I decided to come representing our favorite eras- for me, the 1950s, and for her, the 1940s.
My clothing-
Dress: La Belle
Hat: Urban Outfitters
Shoes: Payless
Pearls: gift from Michael
I also love pairing this hat with modern clothes to keep the look from getting too costumey. |
Flora's hat from Roadkill, a rockabilly store in New Orleans. I am dying to learn how to do this 1940s 'do! Here is a tutorial: http://youtu.be/IH4KWLiyuK4 |
Not your ordinary luncheon in the grass! |
Love this black lace fabric and full skirt with gauzy petticoat!

The original Gossip Girls! |
Jewelry sets the tone for the entire outfit. |
