Channeling Loretta Young

September 5, 2019 · 4 Comments

Every now and then I will come across a high street piece that really speaks to me. I don’t like making impulsive purchases (something that I used to be really terrible with once upon a time…) so these days if I buy something it needs to be something I’ve wanted for a long time. As…

1930s nautical

August 30, 2019 · 3 Comments

Yes, I’m clearly having a moment with head scarves right now. Some of it is to do with how easy they are to accessorise, and because I’ve been having a lot of bad hair days lately. In the case of these photos I thought it would be a great idea to try a different style…

Harlequin

It’s been two years since I last wore a pair of beach pajamas on the blog. Crazy! I have never lived close to the beach, and now that we live further inland I’ve had even less reasons to go. Not that it has stopped me from buying beach pajamas! This month the opportunity finally presented…

Springtime for Babushka

February 22, 2019 · 4 Comments

Sometimes, I like to wear black head to toe. And then there’s times when I like to sport an explosion of colours. Loud outfits like this may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but this one is a favourite mine for sentimental reasons. I love it because the vibrant colours and print of this dress…

Vintage Wedding Guest

February 21, 2019 · Leave a Comment

When you get to my age, which will go unmentioned, the wedding invitations start to pour in. Suddenly everyone you know is coupling up and celebrating it. The moment you’re done with one wedding, another invite promptly arrives in the mail. Which I think is great really, because what’s not to love about an occasion…

A Turban for the Tropics

January 11, 2019 · 2 Comments

Whenever I think of turbans two of old Hollywood’s leading ladies come to mind; Gloria Swanson and Marlene Dietrich. Both wore turbans as part of their iconic looks and as a result these fabulous hair accessories have always been associated with the height of glamour. Or at least in my eyes. What I love most…

September Sakura

For some reason every year when cherry blossom season arrives, I never seem to have a pink dress on hand. Not that a pink dress is required to enjoy the cherry blossoms, I just like things to match the way any other blogger would. Never mind though, because I had this lovely JacksDaughter dress to…

Autumn 1930s Style

May 3, 2018 · 8 Comments

In the last few years it has been amazing to see the growth in vintage reproduction. I remember when I first discovered vintage I could name the brands that made repros on one hand. Now there are more than ever and it’s such a relief for those of us who want an authentic vintage look….

Liebe Marlene

April 24, 2018 · 6 Comments

Of all the 1930s blondes that I look to for outfit inspiration, Marlene Dietrich will always be my favourite. This outfit was inspired by her; as the Seamstress of Bloomsbury Gloria jumpsuit looks just like something Marlene might have worn. Marlene Dietrich was well known for her unique personal style which incorporated menswear to create…

Chickens & Charlie Stone Shoes

April 12, 2018 · 9 Comments

What is with the chicken obsession, you’re probably wondering. Well, I honestly don’t even know myself but I have always really loved chickens and wanted some of my own. Anytime I see them they instantly put a smile on my face, there’s just something about watching them potter around scratching at the ground that makes…

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 harlow@harlowdarling.com.
