The ‘Harlow’ Dress

January 15, 2016 · 13 Comments

I do not let my short stature keep me from wearing maxi dresses! Maxi dresses are especially fantastic because one doesn’t have to think too hard about what shoes to pair them with, meaning I can forego wearing heels and could most likely get away with a comfortable pair of sneakers underneath and people would…

1930s Tea Room

January 8, 2016 · 14 Comments

Today was a good mail day – new shoes, and Lime Crime’s Velvetine in Wicked arrived, which called for an impromptu outing so that I could finally have the chance to wear it.  I don’t believe in wasting fancy makeup on just sitting at home, so it was absolutely necessary to plan an outing for…

Another Day, Another Costume Party

January 1, 2016 · 14 Comments

As I make my wardrobe transition to the 1920s, it is only right that I have become obsessed with hats – because nothing completes a twenties outfit like a great hat. This Edith hat from Modcloth is a special piece due to its incredibly authentic vintage feel and dainty, delicate details. I had been eyeing…

Peaches & Cream

Slowly, but surely, 1920s day wear is making it’s way into my wardrobe and I dream that one day I will have as many 1920s pieces as I currently have 40s and 50s, but for that to happen I must count on more vintage reproduction designers to create twenties inspired pieces. If that was to…

Sunjellies Jasmine Bag

December 5, 2015 · 11 Comments

You might have noticed from my instagram photos that I don’t leave home without a Sun Jellies bag. I always grab a cardigan, some sunglasses and an umbrella and throw it all into my Sun Jellies tote on the way out. Until recently I gave up on bags because I found it so hard to…

Pink Swing Trousers!

December 1, 2015 · 16 Comments

I love wearing vintage swing trousers, but always have a hard time shopping for them. I am pretty short, so the hems pool at my feet and the waist is usually too big. But for the first time ever – I actually have a pair of trousers that fit so perfectly that they did not…

Australia is cookin’ at the moment, seriously, the country is one big oven and you may have heard that all of the Australians are trying to come to terms with the heat – even though this is something that happens every summer. I turned to my most reliable summer favorite, the playsuit, to get me…

Modern Atomic

November 10, 2015 · 14 Comments

Maybe it’s all of the Wes Anderson films I’ve been watching lately, because when we put together our house I found myself going for very bold, bright, cheery colours and so we ended up with a very colourful living room! On the outside our house is a very typical fifties ranch style design (though recently…

Bob Your Hair and Rouge Your Knees

October 27, 2015 · 12 Comments

If I could travel back in time to any decade, it would be the twenties. I would go to a hair dresser right away and get the marcel wave. I have given up all hope in finding a local hair dresser that knows how to do vintage styles, because if there was such a thing…

A vintage lover from Brisbane. I am passionately nostalgic for decades before my time. I enjoy recreating looks inspired by the past wearing both vintage and vintage reproduction clothing. My blog focuses on the styles of the art deco period and features both authentic vintage pieces from the 1920s, 30s & 40s, as well as modern reproductions of clothing from these eras. My blog explores creating modern every day looks with vintage elements. If you would like to say hello get in touch with me through [email protected].
