Happy Thanksgiving!



this is what i wore to my first thanksgiving ... my most favourite 50s dress: ebay // vintage aigner belt: thrifted // vintage cowboy boots: flea market // late 50s bag: flea market ... first i went out with the lovely 30s to 40s coat but my curls got hurtfully stuck in the fur applications (stop giggling!) so i changed into my so called 'the sheep' jacket ...

as being married to an american, i celebrated my first thanksgiving this year. but we had to celebrate early  - almost 10 days ago -  because everyone (friends) has to work tonight! the food was delicious, i met some great new people and lovely friends ... so it was just big fun!

have a lovely thanksgiving, dear friends!

Best Dress-ed: Storms Magasin

 
 

 








i haven't done a 'best dress-ed' post for almost 2 years ... winter - which isn't my fave season for dressing up - is the perfect time to start with this all over again.

today i want to start with the beautiful pia from storms magasin. the 50s style of this danish blogerette is wonderful and absolutely true vintage. visiting her blog means to me to end up in 'dress envy' every time i go there ... she might own one of the best collections of 50s dresses i have ever seen. but there are not just the dresses  ... the hat, the brooch, the hair, the bag, the coat .... every single detail is perfectly vintage.
sadly she is mostly writing in danish, so i'm sadly not able to understand. but for speaking no danish i just enjoy looking at her simple-but-gorgeous smart phone shots taken in front of her filled wardrobe ... 
if you want to get the real vintage blast, go and check out her blog. have fun and enjoy.

Sneak Peak: Home Mess




what i wore a couple of days ago ... 50s to 60s suit coat: ebay // belt: from my mum // cardi: primark // singlet: karstadt // repro 50s skirt: kitsch-nation, berlin // tights wolford // boots: deichmann // vintage petite poit bag: flowmarkt // 50s hat: ebay // peacock brooch: flowmarkt ... my vanity is a little space that already looks like home ...

today, dear friends, i leave you with my first outfit shots i managed in the new flat. if you look closely, you see the mess in the mirror of my beloved vanity. cardboard boxes, an unbuilt 50s hutch (we need help, we tried it twice to build it up again - but he wants to stay in scaring pieces), things waiting to move into the hutch ...
