What are you wearing today??

Dagwood · May 31, 2007

I went out and bought a 11.5 inch tripod from Best Buy for $15.50. Still getting used to taking my own picture on a timer. In this pic, I forgot to straighten my jacket before the count of 10:

For those interested, I'm wearing a Brooks Brothers sportscoat and shirt, and JPress slacks. The pocket square is from Jos. A. Bank.

Miss_Bella_Hell · May 31, 2007

Today I wore an early 50's navy wiggle dress with cream polka dots, a boatneck, and buttons up the back. Had on navy platforms. Also carried a vintage Gucci doctor bag.

Alan, I'm still crying over the fact I didn't manage to snag those shoes. You look splendid.

AlanC · May 31, 2007

^Thanks, and sorry you didn't get them, Orgetorix. More shoes will come along.

Wow, we sure do have some snazzy looking guys and gals in here.
I wish I could run into more men (single ones that is) dressed the way you men are dressed! You all keep putting a smile, and a blush on my face too

MaryDeluxe, you are adorable, and that 53 Ford is the best, to say the least

I'm dreaming of the day when I'm working so I can have a "toy" car or as my Dad calls it a weekend car. Something to go Sunday driving in. But for now my Volvo will have to do. One day I'll have one, it's in my blood after all my Grampa was a restorer of vintage cars, well they weren't vintage for most of the time he was restoring them, and my Dad has restored too many Mustangs, T-birds, and SL's (including a gullwing

) to count. So it must be my destiny to drive a vintage car someday. Better get out and get that job

Today I would totally disappoint you lovely ladies and handsome Gents. I'm not dressed vintage at all, as a matter of fact I barely got dressed today. I wore capri pants, a cute lace trim t-shirt and flip flops. But, I didn't go out at all except to walk downstairs to get a slice of pizza for dinner and I wasn't gonna waist a cute outfit on that!! I've also been a little under the weather so it's very hard to get all dolled up when in that state. I'm meeting a new doctor tomorrow and my Mom has told me not to dress vintage. When I asked her why she said she didn't want me to look so good that the doctor wouldn't believe I was sick!! I think she has a point, so I'm gonna wear a vintage sundress but not gonna really do up the hair and make-up, just keep it simple, natural. That's the way I dress most of the time anyway, so I won't feel funny being "dressed down"

:whistling :whistling Ooh it sounds like you've got the vintage preppy going on. Being a New England Prep School girl, I'm quite partial to that look. You must look quite dapper.:whistling :whistling

Thanks, Marty!

Rafter, that sounds like a great ensemble. I'd love to see a pic.

rubyredlocks · May 31, 2007

I've been looking much more modern lately.Since cutting my hair short I feel less inclined to dress in vintage,but made a bit of effort today.

White tank top
Red Cardigan
Dark denim pencil skirt
Apple green kitten heels
Apple green purse
Hair styled in a 60s bubble with a red and white polka dot headband
Pearl earrings
Red lipstick by Mac(I just blanked on the name)

Rosie · May 31, 2007

I've been more ethnic/boho lately than anything. It's just what I'm vibing now.

Today was, and it sounds weirder than it looked- pinkish, sparkly-ish wrap style dress worn over cream colored wide legged pants, natural shell coverd sandals (quickly becoming favorites of mine) a big cream colored slouchy bag I just bought and big shiny shades. Similar items chosen for tomorrow's attire.

I wore this today and am going to wash it and wear it again tomorrow. It is my current favorite and wish I could find on in every color. lol

When I love something, I do that too. lol Since I'm at diferent sites around the borough, I figure, no one will see me.

Miss Bella, LOVE your new avatar. What lovely lillies.

Mary Deluxe, that skirt is the tops! Lovely.

SPCMickyKilian · May 31, 2007

I am wearing the same thing i have worn every day for the last 8 months of my life. Army digital camo fatigues, boonie cap, tan combat boots, and tan t-shirt...also adding an army IBA (flak jacket) with adaps and added plates along with a wonderful and stylish advanced Kevelar helmet. Ahh thats the wonderful thing about the army, one never has to wake up and wonder what they are going to wear that day. haha

Miss_Bella_Hell · Jun 1, 2007

Today it's a very simple 40's dress in light green with a slightly abstract delicate white floral/clover print. Short sleeves. Brown slingback pumps and brown purse.

KittyT · Jun 1, 2007

Black cuffed capri pants with a natural (not low!) waist, white scoop-neck tee with a puffed cap sleeve, red cardigan, white ankle socks (not bobby socks) with vintage saddleshoes. Red beads/accessories. And don't forget the pigtails! It's super-cute, I promise!

Jovan · Jun 1, 2007

For my friend's graduation:
-vintage Brooks Brothers narrow repp tie
-silver tie bar
-white double cuff shirt
-black two button suit
-white cotton pocket square
-black blucher shoes
-black and grey stripe socks

Jack Scorpion · Jun 1, 2007

Yesterday I shook it up a bit. Wore cuffed-jeans over still-somewhat-too-shiny spectators, a maroon sweater and a stiff/short-brimmed green fedora.

Elaina · Jun 2, 2007

Pretty much the same thing all week:

Flannel jammie pants, an advertising tee, 1 flip flop, a knee brace and a foot brace. I'm giving up on ever dressing vintage, so all my clothes I have in that style are going to wind up being given away.

Mike1939 · Jun 2, 2007

Casual Friday.
