More preparations for 1930s Night, this Saturday! I tried this hairstyle, after seeing an excellent video on youtube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NVjSeCZlm1A&feature=PlayList&p=11BBD0089E702196&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL&index=2)Pretty okay, but I think I need more practice.I looked through my grandmother's yearbooks for fashion ideas. It looks like v-neck sweaters and cardigans, paired with dress shirts, were in style for men.
1938; my grandmother is the first girl on the left. 1939; Grandmother is in the middle, looking more confident, and so fresh-faced and pretty!These aren't the greatest photos for detail, but I'm hoping that they will help to guide my guests toward a style they can wear on Saturday evening.
Still, like the picture of you. Old pictures are so much fun. I have pictures of my grand grand mother when she was a young girl. And they are from the beguining of the 20th century! And some are perhaps from 19th... All the dresses she were, oh, they are something!
ReplyDeleteI ADORE old pictures! I am very grateful to have my grandmother's and grandfather's photos. I'll probably dig through them all and post more to help with the vintage style inspiration! :D
ReplyDeleteOld pictures are quite inspirable. Especially with stories. Even though people may look like a bit too dull, still they speak a lot with their faces.
