  2. Those dresses are amazing. I can't decide what my favourite era is. I love the decadence of the 20's but the drop waists do nothing for me. I love the 30s and 40s for the waists and the history behind the clothes. I have a few 50s style dresses but doesn't everyone these days? I come back to the 60s again and again but I may have overdone the look when I was in my teens. I like details of the 70s but all together it's a bit disco-tastic.
    You never mentioned the 80s! Because I am channeling an 80s vibe mainly at the moment I think. 80s/40s if that's possible!
    Thanks for the comment on my blog, it's nice to be called adventrous!!

  6. So wonderful to hear your different influences! I'm a 50s girl myself, I just love the big pouffy A-line skirts.

  7. '30s and '50s, I think.

    This was a difficult choice, however. All the examples you had were superb.
