I think the length is perfect as it is. Very elegant and makes your legs look like they go on for miles. Can't believe I'm disagreeing with your grandmother.

I'm over 40 and while my blog isn't specifically about being vintage over a certain age (its more about the vintage places I go and things I do, events I attend, things I'm sewing, etc.) it does reflect, I guess you would say, a more mature bent. I have a child and can't flit about on...

What an amazing event. And inspiring photos to boot.

Hi ladies! I don't get out too much, what with my almost 7 year old, but we try to get out and about when we can. Hope to bump in to you!

I have a few things from my grandmother, who passed away at 103. Mostly quilts she hand-sewed, a thimble, a couple of her cotton day dresses, and a little brooch. My mother-in law, who is from Florence, gave me a lot, as she has no daughters and I'm the favorite daughter in law. She doles out...
