1940s Adventuress

February 21, 2019 · Leave a Comment

When your home decor matches the set of Jumanji, you may as well embrace the whole look! I thought it was about time I blogged a vintage explorer inspired look after wanting to do so for so long. The main reason I’d put it off is because it’s taken me this long to find a…

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 Home Among the Gum Trees

January 31, 2019 · 1 Comment

One of my favourite things about living in Queensland is the unique style in which we build our houses. But they don’t just look whimsical, they’re also incredibly practical too as they were designed to keep the inside of the house cool by catching the breeze. That’s the reason behind the winding veranda and the…

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…

Dorothy in the Garden

January 2, 2019 · 1 Comment

I always love to start the new year with a new outfit, and the lovely Dorothy dress by The Seamstress of Bloomsbury felt perfectly fitting for the first post of the year. I don’t think there’s another colour as cheerful as yellow is, and I have high hopes that this will be a happy year….

September Sakura

September 28, 2018 · 5 Comments

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…

Gingham Pinafore

September 20, 2018 · 4 Comments

So, having worn my green pinafore to death on the blog…I decided to have it made in several colours. I first fell in love with the style when I bought the PinaFleur from Heyday and it left me wanting even more dresses in this style. Since Heyday had no plans to produce more in different…

1940s Fair Isle Knit

August 28, 2018 · 3 Comments

My favourite thing about cold weather? Wearing outfits that are soft, comfortable and cosy. I love wearing wool, flannel and anything that feels like a soft warm blanket against my skin. This outfit ended up being a bit of an accident. We went out of town and when we arrived at our destination it was…

Darling, Darling

July 7, 2018 · 5 Comments

White dresses have been a long time favourite of mine. I love wearing them in summer and the endless accessorizing possibilities that a crisp white dress presents. Although technically the dress I’m wearing is a delicate shade of cream, and it is the appropriately named Darling Darling dress from Emmy Design’s latest Spring/Summer release! When…

Keep Calm and Dress like Paddington Bear

May 23, 2018 · 5 Comments

Before anyone asks whether I planned this outfit to coincide with the latest royal wedding, it actually just turned out to be a coincidence! The same way in which there just so happened to be this British phone box sitting outside a shop in a very small sleepy town in middle of nowhere rural Queensland….

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.
