Vintage Stereotypes and How to Spot Them by RetroChic.co.uk

Got featured at Retrochic.co.ko blog "Vintage Stereotypes and How to Spot Them"! It was such an honour to be a part of this blog! I was used as an example of "Period Perfect Pricilla".
Here's what they wrote about my type:
"Period Perfect Priscillla can be found loving any decade from the 20s-60s, but is most commonly a fan of the 30s to early 50s. Her wardrobe is entirely made of authentic vintage clothing from a 5 year period and with her encyclopedic knowledge she can accurately date any piece of vintage clothing with single glance.
Period Perfect Priscilla knows that in the past Women didn’t dress like pin-ups every day. She wears warm wool stockings and sensible shoes and spends her Sundays rummaging at car boot sales for authentic bargains. She has a knack for tracking down the most perfect vintage at a reasonable price, and probably knits and sews as well so her wardrobe is perfectly fitted and to die for.
Wears: Authentic vintage or really good vintage repro, every day.
Eats & Drinks: Tea, made in a tea pot and served in a cup and saucer with an unpretentious digestive biscuit.
Least Likely to: Have ASOS on her bookmarks.
Brands: Heyday! Vintage Style, House of Foxy"

40's navy blue Lilli Ann





Just a quick post about today's outfit!
This was the first time I wore my new  40's navy blue Lilli Ann jacket. I purchased this fabulous late 40's light wool dress from Hoochie Mama Jane and it has little navy blue on the collar. Suddenly after that purchase I felt an urgent need to find something navy blue!

The asnwer was Ooh La La Vintage group on facebook. Found this beautiful 40's Lilli Ann jacket for only 45 euros. Of course there was some small falws but it still presents so beautifully I don't mind little flaws!

1940's is probably my favourite time period in fashion at the moment. It has something very strickt but something so flattering! I simply can't resist beautiful 40's figure! Military influences, padded shoulders, big collars and exquisite cuffs mixed up with female figure and beautiful nipped waist. What more could girl ask for?
