Ok it’s been awhile but now I have more than one vintage dress and am happy not smiling in photos (I am not a smiley person, I did try in some of these photos and decided – nope not me) I can start to share some more of what I wear. It will still probably be sporadic though.
First I thought I would wear this headscarf in a bow….but I quickly realised it was driving me mental…
Much happier with a turban knot and some lippie!
Eyebrows – B Collection Brow Box in Light/Medium
Eyeshadow – Nude from some unknown pallet
Mascara – Max Factor False Lash Effect in Brown
Blush – Natio in Peach Glow
Lipstick – MAC Ladybug
Damn photographer cut off my beautiful shoes!!!!
Much, much happier not smiling like a goon
FLASHER!!!
Glasses – Vintage from Etsy (real prescription…I am nearly blind without them)
Headscarf – Gift
Brooch – Hunter & Co. (from the Truly Vintage Market Day)
Caramel Lambswool Vintage Sweater – Rock that Frock Etsy
Fleur De Lis Vintage Shirt Dress – Rock the Frock Etsy
60s Wool Houndstooth Coat – Audrey Scarlett Vintage (from the Love Vintage Show)
Cream Gloves, White Spilene Vintage Bag & Brown Ferragamos – Ebay
I have decided shirt dresses are the best thing in the world. I wore this dress to the Truly Vintage Market Day, but then this sweater arrived and I realised it would make a perfect ensemble. All I need now is a proper petticoat. I really want my skirts to poof out more.
What are you wearing this week?

Sunday best… not for me today! A few hours sleep means I can’t be bothered getting out of my dressing gown 😛 My dressing gown is sooooo cosy. I have an eBay buyer showing up in one hour and I’m already thinking up my “sorry I’m in my dressing gown” excuse… although I’ll see if I can get myself to Savers if my discount coupon hasn’t expired!
In this case it certainly wasn’t a Sunday – most Sundays are spent in my pjs too!
You look smashingly lovely, dear Jess! That coat (and its lining) is so terrific! I bet it’s the sort of piece you’ll reach for time and time again over the years.
I’m with you when it comes to shirtwaist dresses 100%. They’re a staple in my wardrobe, too. Whether genuine vintage or 80s does 40s or 50s, my closet is liberally peppered with these comfortable, chic classics.
Wishing you an amazing June, honey!

Thanks lovely lady! I am totally in love with my coat. It is without a doubt the best vintage purchase I have ever made.
Love the lining in that coat, wow! And the flasher photo is great 😉
Thanks lovely! The lining is so pretty.
You look gorgeous! Love the whole outfit! The coat is lovely, love that pattern!
Awww thanks lovely! The coat really is divine. I just adore it.
You look absolutely fabulous. Both smiling like a goon and more serious faced! xo
Awww thanks lovely!
Looking good girlfriend! I totally agree with you…if you don’t feel comfy smiling, don’t. If you want to start out with a semi-full petticoat (rather than a full on foofy one) I bought a modern repro from ebay that is great to start out with. They are a QLD company so the postage is quite reasonable. xx Shauna
Thanks lovely! I would much rather buy vintage but I am having trouble locating any in my size. I might have to get a repo one if I can’t find one soon.
Absolutely divine!!!! I LURVE that coat! And your hair is gorgeous!
Thanks lovely lady! The coat is the best.
