Brown 1940s Suit

May 22, 2024 · 2 Comments

One of my smartest purchases to date has been this suit that I bought a few years ago. The amount of outfits I’ve put together using the skirt and blazer as separates has really carried my wardrobe throughout the cooler months. Previously I have posted the blazer and skirt separately so it’s probably about time that I posted the complete set. Unfortunately this year I missed the autumn leaves looking their best and was only able to snap these photos when the trees were looking pretty bare and sad. But because autumn is my favourite time of year, I’ve decided to double dip and have actually booked a trip to Japan for later in the year when it’s their autumn. So I can do autumn twice this year. Which is so much better than doing summer twice…

Wearing:

1940s vintage reproduction suit by Retrospec’d, Freddies of Pinewood Spellbound Blouse, Memery shoes, true vintage 1940s hat & purse via Etsy, vintage reproduction brooch & hatpin, What Katie Did stockings
